Fashion & Style

Jewelry can bring happiness as well as make a statement for all of us young and old. A favorite accessory some jewelry combines aesthetics with functionality. Because of its versatility, a debate has ignited among jewelry wearers specifically among men who wear watches. While nonetheless a friendly dispute the question posed elicits an array of opinions. Is a man’s watch considered fashionable jewelry? Or is a watch a timepiece a tool of sorts, created solely for displaying the time and date? As co-owner of an online jewelry store specializing in men’s jewelry, it is my opinion that watches are both jewelry and tool. In essence, watches are multi-purposed pieces. They are considered fashion jewelry with many including bonus features. Today’s watches have the capability of performing a wide range of functions.
Men’s watches in their various forms have been around for centuries. Like many other things, the styles and functions of men’s watches have changed over time. In the 1700s, the traditional pocket watch was born. In 1920, chained watches were replaced with wristwatches, known as wristlets. As technology became more advanced so did watches. The first electronic watch was developed in the ’70s proving that not only were styles changing but their purpose had also matured as well. As the capabilities of men’s watches evolved the watch became known as the only piece of jewelry having both style and functional attributes.
To understand why many consider a man’s watch a necessary tool you need to look no further than its function. Watches are no longer merely timepieces. Today many of the men’s watches available come fully loaded with alarms reminders stop-watch capabilities GPS (Global Positioning System) and yes even some can monitor critical information such as heart-rate. It’s easy to understand with all the bells and whistles now available why many consider men’s watches much more than another piece of fashion jewelry.
When purchasing jewelry for myself I make it a point to choose jewelry that is not only stylish and affordable but versatile as well. For example, many of the pendants and necklaces offered add style to both casual and business attire. The same rationale applies to many individuals who wear watches. While watches are indeed fashionable they also fulfill a need. At a minimum, they provide the time. At most, they can save your life.
In my many years of working with consumers, I have concluded. Only one thing determines why a person buys jewelry: their individual need. Herein lies the answer to whether a watch is jewelry a tool or better yet, perhaps both.
