You put a lot of effort into choosing your wardrobe. From ensuring you have a little black dress for every event or well-fitted trousers for every occasion, to buying the perfect shoes for every outfit, your fashion efforts are endless. Alongside these efforts is your watch collection. With so many watches being produced each year it is hard to decide what to purchase, which watch suits you best, and which watch will last you the longest. Quite often there are so many factors involved in making this decision – while one watch might look great with your everyday clothing the strap might be uncomfortable or it could break quickly; another watch that has all the durability you could ask for might not look quite right with your work clothes.
Finding the perfect watch is all about the features and style. However, what you look for and expect out of a watch is not the same as what your neighbour does. That’s why it’s important to know yourself and the features that are most important to you when it comes to something as essential as time itself. Find out all you need to know below.
