What Side do Men Wear Watches (& Why)

What Side do Men Wear Watches (& Why)

If you've ever wondered which side you wear your watch on, we applaud you: it's not such a common question, and it does reveal a greater sensitivity than the norm. The reason is that a watch is not only used to look at the time, but it's also worn to convey our identity as an individual - and the wrist to which we wear it is also part of this aspect, which seems secondary but isn't.

So, let's take a look at why you should wear your watch on one arm or the other - and in some cases, both!

Essential Guide for Men Dress Watch

Dress Watch Essential Guide for Men

Let's face it. Etiquette in our day has become a bit of forgotten art, partly because fashions change, and a lot, in a relatively short period. If we transported a gentleman of 1900 in our time, we would probably find someone confused and scandalized.

Even in an almost trivial detail such as wristwatch-wearing, etiquette reminds us what to use, how, and when. And despite now sailing in the midst of a sea of bad habits, people continue to recognize - and appreciate - an elegant man who puts care and attention to detail, including a fundamental one: the watch. And that's what we're going to discover together.

Watch Buying Guide for Men - How to Buy a Watch?

Watch Buying Guide for Men - How to Buy a Watch?

Once upon a time - and we are talking about 500 years ago - a watch represented an important element in people's lives, much like what we consider cars today. The true gentleman also had to show his qualities in the watch's choice, which not only testified his class and socio-economic status but also became a distinguishing element of his character.

The evolution of watches over the years has greatly changed this aspect, and likewise, how we wear watches. But even if today it is no longer the "must" that it was up to fifty years ago, the watch continues to remain an essential element of the wardrobe, especially for men.

Do we want to discover together something more? Here is a small guide to doing so.

What is a GMT Watch and How does it Work?

What is a GMT Watch and How does it Work?

A GMT watch is a kind of timepiece that takes us back to the early days of international air travel. Those were almost heroic times for civil aviation, made up of airliners derived directly from World War II bombers, with their powerful rotary engines whipping through the air, pushing the aircraft's nacelle and its content through several intermediate stops to reach the passenger's final destination.

Of course, times - and air travel - have changed a lot since then, so much so that today, with the growth of the modern low-cost airlines, air travel has become almost a commodity. But the importance and function of our GMT watches have never changed, nor has their exotic appeal, and now we'll examine it together.
