If you want to go rock star with a dotted tie, BRUDGUM BLACK is a sterling choice. Tone-in-tone black is a great design when you want to turn things up just a notch from protocol black. For grand, dignified occasions or grown up clubbing.
It looks good and will go well with a dinner jacket at any black tie event. But it screams "pre-tied tie". I do wish they could come up with a pre tied tie that looks like a hand tied one. In other words, not perfect. I used to be able to tie a self tie bow but now have lost use of one hand.
