Diamond Watches for Any Occasion

Written by on February 23, 2010 under Discount Luxury Watches, Jewelry, Luxury Watches, Shopping tips

A lot of people think diamonds are best reserved for special occasions, but this simply isn’t true. Yes, certain ornate pieces of jewelry and watches — the kind that compete with the chandelier for attention — are probably most appropriate for holidays and celebrations, but not all diamond pieces are this showy. Womens diamond watches, for example, are often demure enough for everyday use.

The appropriateness of your diamond watch really depends on three things: size, quantity, and color. Watches with large diamonds are usually on the more formal side, so you can keep things casual with gems of a smaller size. Similarly, a watch covered in diamonds is bound to attract attention, while small amounts of diamonds embedded along the strap, bezel, or face — note the “or” — are safe, subtle choices.

Color, too, is very important; white diamonds are more likely to stand out on yellow or rose gold, and virtually any pattern of colored diamonds (with the exception of black) is going to elevate your timepiece from your daughter’s piano recital to an evening at Carnegie Hall, whether you want it to or not.

Why Do I Need A Watch?

Written by on January 21, 2010 under Cool watches, Discount Luxury Watches, Luxury Watches, Shopping tips, Watches Articles

Everyone knows watches allow their wearers to keep time, but what else have they got to offer? Let’s take a look.

One reason people wear watches is that, frankly, people have been wearing watches for centuries—why stop now? Some of the earliest timepieces were 16th century pocket watches, which were mostly functional but involved a level of fashion as well. Back then, if you had a pocket watch you would wear it on your buttonhole or waistcoat to flaunt your status, a style some men employ even today.

Second, a watch shows off its owner’s personality and style, be it sporty, funky, classic, elegant, rugged, or perhaps a combination of these. With so many different colors, sizes, brands, and makes, in addition to “build a watch” services, there’s really no limit to your customization. A lot of people like to mix diamond and gold cases with rubber straps, for example, to combine both edgy and timeless elements.

There’s certainly a watch out there for everyone. Into name brands? Try a Rolex. Sick of remembering which is the little hand? Go digital. Keep browsing and you’re sure to find the perfect timepiece!

Show Your Team Spirit With These Team Watches!

Written by on January 20, 2010 under Cool watches, Shopping tips

If you’re into sports like hockey, baseball, or football, you can actually use a sports watch to show people how much you love your favorite teams. I know most people think of a sports watch as a specific style of timepiece, which it is, but that’s not all it is. The sports watches I’m talking about are the ones emblazoned with the colors and logos of your favorite teams. For example, if I liked the Pittsburgh Steelers, I might enjoy something with a black rubber strap and Steelers logo on the watch face.

Pretty cool, right? Ever better, there’s a sports watch for almost every team in every sport, including football, baseball, basketball, and hockey—even NASCAR and college football and basketball.

And your watch doesn’t even have to look all that sporty, as most retailers offer as much variety in team watches as you’d find from a regular distributor. You can choose a variety of band materials (acrylic, rubber, metal, leather) and case materials (plastic, gold, silver, platinum). And just like regular watches, you can find the all the features you’re looking for, like water resistance, alarm clocks, and time zone support. You can even buy a Swiss- or German-made sports watch.

So go out there and support your team!
