No one likes skin and bones, unless it’s the skin and bones of your watch, that is. It’s actually really cool to watch your watch work – all the cogs and wheels turning really gives you a sense of the craftsmanship involved in the making of your timepiece. Some skeleton watches are front and back, some are back only, some are luxury, some are everyday wear, some are sporty, and some are casual.
In deciding what kind of watch you want, it depends on what your daily needs are. Then take into account extraordinary activity like how often you encounter water, and how often you want to wear your watch. You don’t have to spend a ton of money on your watch to enjoy it either. Many skeleton watches today can be had for around $100.
These watches are attractive because they are different, and are fascinating to watch. Be careful, though! You don’t want to be caught staring at the beauty of your watch’s mechanisms all the time because people may think that you can’t wait for an event to end and take it as a sign of rudeness. Or they may ask to see your watch.

Manufacturing only the best timepieces since 1839, Swiss watchmaster Patek Philippe knows a thing or two about fine watches.
Patek Philippe is the only manufacturer that crafts its watches to the stringent specifications of the Geneva Seal. These exquisitely constructed watches are made with the latest technologies and the old world know-how that only comes from generations of experience.
So when Patel Philippe introduces a new collection, we have it on our radar.
For ladies who are admire the casually elegant style of the classic men’s Nautilus watch, Patek Philippe has come out with a women’s Nautilus Collection. This latest interpretation of the feminine Nautilus watch comes in stunning white or rose gold, with a diamond set bezel and a charcoal or silvery white dial. This watch is perfect for the go-getter who admires classic structure and without compromising her femininity.
For men, the Calatrava Ref 5153J is a very rare officier’s-style case made with superior Patek Philippe craftsmanship. This new style features a rounded bezel, a sapphire-crystal back protected by a hinged dust cover, a unique turban style winding crown, set with a brown alligator leather band. This watch is the perfect balance of refinement and casual comfort. If you’re looking for a chic, sophisticated watch that still has a laid-back air to it, this is the perfect watch for you.

It seems like most of the time, the watch industry is all about men watches. Well darn it, women like and need watches too! So here we have some of the top named watches in the industry. Some of these are a little more expensive than others, but all of them are going to have the quality and craftsmanship you really desire. One of the most expensive watches I saw was from Harry Winston. We will not be featuring that watch ($66,000) in this blog. However, we do have a few really nice options instead of the HW! We are starting at a funky little collection called the Spree Watch. Which makes sense if you could see it. If you are a little younger than I am you probably have heard of Spree candy – this watch looks like a bunch of Spree candies strung together.
It’s actually kind of cool – comes in purple, blue, pink, black and a lime green color. It’s more funky fashion that fabulous function. Another funky one to take a look at is something called Rocio by Nixon. Very minimalistic as far as bells, whistles and looks go. However, it has this quirky little function that makes it cool! It’s a squarish disc watch that has translucent numbers on the dial. The numbers actually float to show what time it is.
So you have numbers 1-12. If its 5 o’clock, the other 11 numbers will be translucent and the five will be “lit” up. Of course this means you won’t ever have the exact time, but still, kind of cool! Want something a little less wild and a little more classy and subdued? That’s okay too – take a look at something like the Nixon Elle, Dynasty, The Chalet, a black brushed Vega SS – which is a little bit of classy, meets stylish, meets functional.
