A Brief History of Wrist Watches

The word watch can be traced to the old English word 'woecce,' which meant watchmen. Originally fixed timepieces, the pocket watch, as well as the modern wristwatch, were made as portable pieces. Technological improvements later allowed for their miniaturization, making them a common and useful fashion accessory.

Wristwatches were initially worn by women, which explains the subtle design variations. Men, on the other hand, carried pocket watches until the 20th century.

At first, wearing wristwatches among men was limited to military personnel, but soon it caught up mainstream attention and started being worn by men all around the world. There are mainly two types of watches common these days, digital and analog watches. Digital watches, for instance, come with both electric and analog displays. In contrast, analog watches mostly come with three hands of varying measurements to indicate time. These two types both run on batteries. Another variety is the motion-based bio-charging type, which tends to lean on the pricey side. Modern electric watches not only display time but they also serve as compasses, barometers, and even alarms.

How to style

There are different fun and versatile ways through which you can complete your look with a stylish wristwatch. For example, you can pair your LED bracelet watch or a wristband with a plaid shirt, or black stonewashed vests.

A classic black leather strapped piece can be easily paired with a checkered flannel shirt or biker jeans completed with ankle-length boots for a casual look or a night out in the club. You can also swap it for a simple silver metal watch.

For goths and metalheads, there are a wide variety of skull watches and accessories that can complement your look. You can opt for a skull-designed bracelet to watch either in metal or leather variations or go retro and pick up a skull steampunk-intending leather-strapped timepiece. Additionally, you can also opt for neo-Victorian to pirate-themed pieces- the choice is yours.
