5 tips for how to choose a watch

Jan 9, 2022

Men's clothing, there are three items that can best reflect the taste of clothing in details: belts, watches, and ties. The man who pays attention to details is the most attractive, giving the impression that this person is a meticulous and serious life image. It's not that you have to wear hundreds of thousands of belts and watches to be real men. The best ones are those that match your own image and state.

What should you pay attention to when buying a watch? What is suitable for you? If you think it is possible to visit a watch store, you may wish to take a serious look at the following points.

Origin is very important, quality assurance

In the watch industry, the place of origin is almost more important than the brand. The best place of origin is undoubtedly Switzerland. Of course, France, Germany, Italy, and Japan are also quite good watch origins, but their characteristics are different. For example, Japanese watches have been brilliant with quartz watches, and German watches are more practical.

When you can't decide, focus on the movement

If you are now hesitant about how to choose from several styles, look at the movement. The core component of the watch, whether the travel time is accurate depends on the movement, and the quality of the movement may be the most important. If a watch advertises how good our movement is all day long, it is probably still at the level of "running accuracy", but there will be no electronic watch accuracy.

The way to choose insurance for the movement of a mechanical watch is to choose a well-known movement from a famous watch factory, such as Zenith's El Primero, Piguet, Lemania, Venus and so on. The movement is important, but you should also choose a watch with a good-looking appearance, because the movement is still on the back after all, and will not be exposed casually.

Material is also very important and is closely related to wearing and use

The material determines the price. The price of gold-plated watches and diamond-encrusted watches is naturally much higher, and now many brands of watches also like to use new materials to make watches. For example, Hublot is the first Swiss top watch brand to integrate precious metals and natural rubber as raw materials. Hublot includes a perfect fusion of precious metals such as zirconium, tantalum, magnesium, and titanium with diamonds, rare gems, gold, platinum, ceramics, stainless steel and natural rubber. Of course, the price will definitely be higher, but watch lovers who like precious metals and diamonds will find it worthwhile.

For a watch that is used daily, the most important thing to pay attention to is the material of the mirror surface. It is inevitable to bump and bump in daily use. Just like the screen of a mobile phone, it may be scratched and broken. You can’t stick your favorite film, so choose carefully. Of course, ceramic watches are not easy to be scratched, and they are suitable for watch friends who are allergic to metals, but the anti-drop performance is not good, so be careful to store them.

The material of the strap is also very important. The strap is the most formal and textured, the tape is the most lively and sporty, and the steel strap is in the middle. If you want to quickly identify whether a watch is good or bad, you can look at the strap, especially a good-quality leather strap, which not only looks more textured, but also prolongs the wearing and replacement time.

The shape is very important, that is, you have to like it enough

The most important factor is to choose a watch that suits you. If you pay attention to matching, in fact, the movement, material and origin are not that important. If you like simplicity, choose a simple design with three needles or a dress watch; if you don’t like too monotonous, you can choose a complicated dial design.

Please buy the watch you really want to buy. If you keep asking other people's opinions, no matter what watch you want to buy, your buddies, girlfriends, relatives, netizens, there will always be a way to collect ten opinions for your reference. But remember, that's just a reference, it's you who wears the watch, not them.

Choose the right size watch

Large-sized watches are very popular these days, and they do have a fashionable appeal. Panerai is the representative of the large dial, and the large dial designs such as Dafei pilot watches and Breitling do have extraordinary designs and are very beautiful.

But if your wrist is really too small, even smaller than the diameter of the watch, the watch will not fit at all. The style of the large dial is relatively tough, which is suitable for tall men. If you look more gentle than men, you can choose a slightly smaller dial design to show more temperament.

As a watch lover, it is also necessary to choose a watch winder box that suits you.
