27 Jul Should you change your wrist watch with the clothing, to match them according to the occasion? That’s an easy question to answer, but the equation becomes harder if you consider that not many can afford to have two or three watches. Yeah, I know, there are cheap watches out there, so you can get at least a stainless steel sports watch and one with a leather wrist strap, but if you get very cheap watches those will tell a different story about you if you were to choose only one model, but more expensive.
Whether we like it or not, a watch defines us, tells others what you’re made of, what are your priorities in life (cheap means you’re hunting for bargains, not putting too much importance on style, while expensive means you can either afford it or you prefer to pay more for looks than other amenities).
Which type of watch goes with what clothing?
My take on this matter is that you don’t have to be too obsessed with matching a wrist watch with your current wardrobe, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have two or three watch models, one stainless steel that goes well with almost every type of occasion, except the ones where a tuxedo is required. For those occasions you can get a leather strap wrist watch. For very sporty occasions or environments that are harsh you can opt for a rubber strap watch, that will be more comfortable to use and will last longer (it can be replaced easily if broken and it’s also cheaper than other options).
Other rules
In the end all you have to do is follow the rules above and you’ll be fine. Don’t buy 1 dollar watches, opt for a popular name, and chose the model that you can afford. As a rule, don’t buy a watch that’s more expensive than all the clothes you wear at a given time (unless you’re talking about sport apparel, which usually don’t cost much). If you’re really rich try and get more watches that match partially your wardrobe (similar strap color, screen color and so on). And don’t even think of not wearing a watch at all (it’s OK maybe if you’re an artist, but that’s pretty much it).
