Men And Their Watches

DANIEL WELLINGTON SHEFFIELD 40MM ROSE STRAP WATCH

While most men don’t bother too much about what they are wearing, when it comes to watches it’s an entirely different story. For most men, a watch is the only accessory that they can wear every single day. They are meticulous about the care and research that goes into every watch purchase and how they style it. Just how many watches do most men own? The numbers are surprising. Like women and their handbags, men feel like they can never have too many. Men like to build a collection that allows them to swap out with different outfits, change straps to suit the occasion, and of course find one that’s perfectly suited to express who they are.
Why Do Men Own So Many Watches?

What is it about the watch that men have a love affair with? A watch is a timeless piece of jewelry; when anyone takes a close look, it defines who they are. It is a status symbol and a way to look fully put together. It completes an outfit and definitely can say something about responsibility and professionalism of the wearer. For some, the watch they wear has a history behind it. They wear watches in memory of a first love, a broken heart, or sometimes, in memory of a family member. It is a way to share a story with anyone who takes the time to notice. A watch worn not only shows off some style and personality, it also gives the wearer a story to tell. That is usually the most exciting. Reasons For many men, forgetting to wear their watch makes their outfit feel incomplete, like it’s missing something. A watch can really tie it all together. For others, it?s the mechanics of the watch that intrigues them. Boys never grow out of toys. But more often than not, it is about image as most brands affiliate themselves with a certain lifestyle, sport, car, or sailing. Also, it is the only way a man can be a little showy with expensive jewelry in the same way women like to show off diamond rings or a logo handbag.
