There is absolutely no reason or excuse not to have a tie pin/slide depending on your preference.
They are cool, crisp additions to any suit; tie the metal of your outfit into the colours of your suit and tie; will make you stand out from the crowd; and are lovely things to collect.
If you want to make it a signature piece of your style, get at least one in gold, silver and rose gold. The latter is the hardest to find, so take any copper-coloured metal you can get your hands on and be thankful for it!
Buy vintage in the case of pins, and new in the case of slides. Avoid loud patterns or jewels on slides - go for a clean bar of metal.
Given that your watch and belt tend to hang almost next to each other, the time and care you've spent selecting which metal to wear with your outfit may go unnoticed due to the sub-eyeline positioning of your jewllery - fix that with a tie adornment.
I'm a fan of the quirkier pins, but don't use anything but a slide on my best, non-knitted ties for fear of causing irrepairable damage to the fabric.
If you can't find what you want,have your own made. Get a pin badge made-up to your spec, then buy a tie-tack retainer from eBay. That'll work just fine.
