A watch is an important part of your wardrobe. It can say a lot about you,what you do for a living or what you do in your free time. When buying a watch there are a few basic things you will want to consider. Deciding on a band, a watch face style and what kind of extra features you want it a great way to narrow down search. Picking the perfect watch can be as easy as following these simple tips.

It's all assessing your style:
The first thing to do when choosing any watch is take a quick survey of your life. Are you an action packed outdoors kind of man who is athletic and always on the go? Or are you a businessman who's day is filled with meetings, luncheons, conferences and dinners. Your watch should resemble the lifestyle you lead for fashion and functional purposes. If you find yourself outside or engaged in physical activities and labor, you may want to purchase a sportier watch that can hold it's own and offers helpful functions like a compass, rotating bezel or a stop clock capability. Likewise if you often dress in a suit and tie or have an affinity for the classy and sophisticated, your watch should reflect that. Instead of the tech savvy watches, you may want a watch that fits with a certain appearance. Do a quick survey of your personality and style to provide you with direction.


Watch Band - strap or bracelet:
The watch band can "set off" the first impression that a timepiece will leave with your friends, family or work associates. There are several types of bands including leather, metal, synthetic and material. If you are a sports minded or outdoors kinda man then your best bet would be one of the material or synthetic bands that offer a little more versatility and protection from the elements or from sweat induced by physical activity. However, for a watch that can be worn for everyday use as well as special occasions, you may want to look for one with a leather or metal/stainless steel band.  (cont'd next page)
