the period of war and they were specially made
FIELD WATCHES
They were mainly designed
in the pe
find riod of war and they were specially made for the officers. They have a
very formal look with very minimal designs and also they are very durable in nature.
The face of the watch is mostly white or black in colour and the index has the
opposite colours. They can also illuminate at night and show the right time.
The dial size of the watch varies from small to medium. They come with leather
or canvas s
house traps. They are very easy to use and as they are simply looking (yet
elegant)
business one can wear them regularly at formal occasions and at their
workplace.
DRESS WATCHES
These
are designed much later; that is in the 20th century
keeping in mind the rich and elite people. They were designed to bring the
pocket watch to a wrist one. Though they are simply looking they look very
sophisticated. It can thus easily draw attention. The face of this watch has a
sleek look and the numbers are written in Roman. The dials have a normal size
and the band is strictly made from leather. Sometimes they appear with thin
metal belts as well. They are also very user-friendly watches for all ages. As
the name suggests these dress watches are mainly to be worn with a tuxedo or a
coat suit. One can wear them to a formal party.
AVIATOR WATCHES
In the year 1904, Louis
Carter designed a watch which was specially made for his pilot friend and so
the name aviator watch and the design came to the scene. As years passed,
designers kept the original designs but added the chronographs so that it can
become handy for the users. A chronograph is a kind of a sub-dial that is
present within the case and it shows the time of a different GMT. It can have a
compass as well. They mostly have a black face and the dial is mostly
over-sized. This is because pilots can have a quick reading. They can have a
leather belt and they are a bit complicated when it comes to functions as
compared to the other 2 mentioned above. One can always wear them to any casual
gatherings.
DIVE WATCHES
This is a very common
version of men’s watches and they are mainly used when one has something to do
with water. These watches are very much water-resistant and it became very
popular with the name submariner watches. These watches have a strong
appearance and the dials are medium-sized. They have a metal strap and they are
supposed to be worn underwater. But one can also wear them with formal wear at
any event.
RACING WATCHES
They are mainly designed
for the car racers. This watch was designed in the 1930s and the accurate
timing shown by these watches are its selling point. These watches have bright
colours and the dials vary from being medium to large. The brand strap can be
of either metal or leather. As these watches are very bold looking, one can
never wear them with any formal attire. It is a good idea to wear them with
casual wear or semi-casual wear and one can always flaunt them in a fun party.
One can choose from any
of these varieties according to their style and necessity.
