Jewelry is the perfect missing piece to any wardrobe. Both men and women wear accessories to complement their outfits. However, one of the key standout pieces in a man’s wardrobe is his choice of watch. Wristwatches are the few pieces of jewelry that most men feel comfortable wearing — beyond a wedding ring. Wristwatches can tell you a lot about a man, Is he the jovial or serious type? A modernist or a classicist?
In line with that, there are thousands of watch categories available, ranging from variations on the internal works themselves to functional history to designer whim to sometimes quite costly materials themselves. Like most accessories, we think it’s best to develop a watch wardrobe, having one or two that are great for everyday wear, some for special occasions, and others for sport or workouts.
Smart Watches
Possibly the most recent watch concept to date. Initially designed to be portable smartphones hosting all the data we used to have in our desktop PCs, housed on our wrists. Smartwatches can track heartbeats, steps, and provide GPS service.
Manufacturers have made a collective effort to blend technology with elegance, so you can get a smartwatch to go with just about everything from formal to casual wear.
Luxury Watches
Familiar names like Cartier or Rolex pops up to mind when you hear Luxury Watches. There is something to be said about a watch that is being purchased, not just for you, but for your son and maybe beyond.
Of course, the cost of these watches is high-priced, but if you can handle it, you'll realize that a well-made watch from a reputable company may increase in value almost exponentially. These watches are truly investments in time itself.
Automatic Watches
Most recently Automatic Watches are making a comeback in Men's Fashion.
These watches were dominant in the 20th century, rather than having to wind up or rely on batteries, automatic watches “wind” themselves just from your body’s movement.
Furthermore - they last forever, one of the most amazing features of an automatic watch is its longevity. With the right craftsmanship, an automatic watch has an indefinite lifespan, pausing only when the wearer ceases to wind or move the internal mechanisms of the timepiece.
Quartz Watches
Beloved for their accuracy they work by sending an electrical current (from a battery) through a crystal; the resultant vibrations keep the movement going. They also come in variations.
