Can men wear gold plated watches ?.
Praise be to Allaah.
That
is permissible for women, but for men it is not permissible if the watch
is gold or gold-plated, because the Prophet (peace and blessings of
Allaah be upon him) said: “Gold and silk are permitted for the females
of my ummah and forbidden for the males.” If it is imitation gold but is
not really gold, it is still better for a man not to wear it, to protect
his honour against accusations of going against the pure sharee’ah.
