How do you accessorize for formal events?

Hi, I would like to no if you LADIES wear a watch when you attend a formal event. For example, if you are wearing a semi-formal dress, does a watch look out of place?

How about B,C, and D! A classy watch with a tennis bracelet!

I am curious what people think because I was actually considering wearing a watch at my wedding...which one might say is a very formal event. It would be borrowed from a relative and would be an antique watch with a pearl/diamond bracelet band. I can't find a picture of anything exactly like it but it would be somewhat similar to this:

Too informal?

I think that watch sounds perfect nyquestioner. It's your day and you can wear whatever you darn well please!

I always wear a watch even to formal events. I have a few very dressy antique gold watches from my mother and grandmother and even my MIL and I wear whichever one goes with my other jewelry. One is white gold, one is yellow gold and the one from my mom is pink, yellow and white gold so it's all covered lol.

Nala, I don't usually wear my Rolex to formal events as it doesn't seem dainty enough but I really don't see anything wrong with wearing one if that's what you like. Have fun and wear what makes you feel beautiful and happy!

I voted C because I like to wear a little bracelet or something. A watch is okay if it's dainty or compliments the dress.

Nyquestioner- the watch you posted seems like it'd work with a vintagey style wedding dress.
