The scene has changed a fair amount over time with regards to mens fashion watches. Since the advent of the mobile phone, some people assume that watches aren’t used as much these days, but that’s not necessarily true. In fact, modern men can utilize a time piece for a variety of different reasons. They aren’t purely for telling the time you know! If you’re fashion minded and want to add subtle sophistication to your style, then you absolutely need to have a time piece on your wrist.
Choosing your style
There are a lot of different choices available to you when deciding on a timepiece, and it’s really a matter of knowing your own personal style. For instance, if you’re going into a board room or are in constant meetings, perhaps a watch that has an exposed face with classic detailed hands would be a great choice for you in order to tout a subtle, sophisticated look. If you are unsure when choosing a watch, a good tip is to stick to the classics. Avoid watches with characters – for instance that quirky Mickey Mouse watch that you may have had your eye on (you’d be surprised how many guys actually forget this). Disney watches are cool and all, but not for the professional world, (unless you are working for Disney, which is another story altogether). Pick something that speaks volumes about who you are – after all, your watch is really an extension of you.
Phone, Watch, More
Recently, Samsung has marketed a pretty cool new gadget which takes the form of a watch but incorporates an ‘all in one’ device. You may jump at this option and choose to have your time piece act as your phone, a mp3 player and a media device. Not only does this option tick many functional boxes but it has also been designed well in black – giving off a modern yet elegant look. Although newly introduced, it is already getting a lot of praise for its intuitive design and combination of use.
The Black Matte Watch
For those that want to have a versatile option, you’ll want to go with a classic black watch. Mens fashion watches don’t need to be encrusted with jewels or anything like that. In fact, magazines from GQ to Maxim have praised brands like Nixon for combining function, fashion and style all into one affordable timepiece. Remember less is often better in regards to timepieces, as the classic more elegant designs tend to remain timeless.
The above tips are just a few things to consider when you are looking into acquiring a timepiece. Remember to stay true to your own style and if in doubt go for a classic black watch that won’t date. It’s time to put away your cell phone and go back to the original time gadget: the watch. And for those of you that seem frightened by this idea, there is always the new Samsung watch that incorporates modern functions as well.
