Dress Watches for a Wedding

Weddings are a wonderful time to dress up and really accessorize, whether you’re a man or woman. Dress watches are the perfect pick for that suit or dress. Even the bride herself may opt for a watch to wear instead of a bracelet, or together with one. After all, she can then keep track and make sure everything is happening on time like planned! If the bride is to wear a dress watch, bracelet watches should be considered. They aren’t as bold and brash as a regular watch and band and will work better with the overall look of the bridal gown, as well…

Womens Watches Get Funky

While some of us ladies may prefer a refined and classy watch to wear with evening gowns and even a sharp pant suit, younger girls are leaning more towards adventurous styles in their wrist wear. Brand name watches are no longer just the basic dress watches enshrined in precious metals, featuring diamonds but rarely featuring an adventurous or loud design. These days many brand names have followed the lead of companies like Glam Rock watches and Swatch in making styles that offer a luxurious feel with a mix of funky and fresh design meant to make wearers stand out. A great example of that…

Classic Elegance of Chanel Watches

Compared to the ages of other luxury watches, Chanel watches, which were launched in 1987, are mere infants. However, they still embody the timeless elegance of their counterparts and feature the same classic look as all Chanel products.  Chanel watches are indubitably as popular as any product bearing the brand’s name. For example, the Women ‘s Premiere White Diamond Stainless Steel & White High-Tech Ceramic Watch has the same clean lines and sophisticated design that you expect from any Chanel item. This watch has a stainless steel case and a white lacquered dial with silver tone hands. It has no…

Black Watches Running Through My Mind

The first watch I ever got had a Mickey Mouse theme. It was a present from my grandfather, and I was amazed by the fact that Mickey’s arms could stretch into the most abnormal positions, just so I could tell the time. I was six. Today my style has changed, although I would probably still wear the Mickey Mouse watch if I knew where it was. Like my Mickey Mouse watch, the black watches I  wear today have black bands. When I bought my first watch, I saw it in the cabinet and immediately fell in love with it. Out of all…

Bracelet Watches: Trendy Accessories

Getting ready in the morning can be a real hassle. Especially if you’re unsure exactly how you want to dress and accessorize. You can waste at least a few minutes just on the one problem: watch or bracelet? Bracelet or watch? What if you could have both? You can! Some designer watches are now made to occupy both needs. Bracelet watches solve indecision… at least some indecision.  Take, for example, some of the Gucci bracelet watches. They have a stainless steel bracelet with a watch faceplate. It’s in the shape of a bangle so unless otherwise told, most people wouldn’t…

Having Fun with Glam Rock Watches

I don’t like it when people take their watches too seriously. A watch may be a stylish accessory, but there is no reason to keep it formal, and frankly, boring. Men and women’s watches are designed to suit all sorts of occasions, so why can’t one of those occasions be a fun one? Thanks to Glam Rock watches, funky fashion watches haven’t gone out of style. Although you can certainly find timepieces to fit a business attire, you’ll mostly find an assortment of bright colors, flashy designs, and innovative style. It’s the perfect timepiece for a wrist under the age of thirty…

Men’s Watches: Men’s Swiss Army Chronograph Watch

If you want  a watch that will keep up with your active lifestyle, you should look into Swiss Army brand name watches. A Swiss Army watch is hearty and reliable, two traits that you definitely want in a timepiece when you’re adventuring in the great outdoors. The Men’s Swiss Chronograph watch makes a great gift for any outdoorsy man, even if he’s a lawyer Monday-Friday and only goes fishing on the weekends. The black rubber watch strap adds to its durability; if you get it wet (it has a water resistance of (330 feet) the rubber will not leave those gross black marks on…

Diver’s Watches For Non-Divers?

Practically any designer of brand name watches will at some point take a stab at diver’s watches. It’s a little hard to understand why. Most of us are not professional, or even recreational divers. At most, some of us will take brief trips to some tropical paradise or some island off the coast of some other island and try our hands (and watches, apparently) at diving once in our lives. In spite of this, the diver’s watch is among the most sought after in almost any watch brand. It seems that almost all of the major watch brands have a line of diver’s watches.…

More On Black Watches

Everyone needs a black watch. Like the black suit and tie, it’s a staple of formal attire for men. Although the white watch has become popular with women, men still find that black is the way to go. With so many different brands of black watches you may find it hard to choose the right one, so I’ll try to make it easier for you. The Jacques Lemans Men’s York 1-1602A Black Leather watch is an attractive watch for a great price. It’s small, sleek, and sophisticated. In short, it has just about everything you would want in a luxury watch. What…

Taking Care of Ceramic Watches

Ceramic watches can be absolutely beautiful choices for a timepiece. A lot of celebrities wear these kinds of watches because of their beauty. They consist of ceramic bodies and bezels and a scratch resistant coating on the crown. But ceramic watches still need to be cared for properly to keep from any damage. To clean a ceramic watch and make it look brand new, you can sweep the watch with a soft cloth to get rid of excess dirt. Then, using a non-abrasive cleaner, you can wipe the crown, band and back of the case. Dry the watch with a new, dry cloth.…
