Fashion has varied definitions among men, but a few points have stayed almost the maxims – the wristwatches and cufflinks are the first that we may remember in this aspect. Now, those who are into it knee-deep may raise an objection; these are fashion accessories and not exactly what’s portrayed by the word fashion. But nevertheless, they form the defining parameters for fashion; you won’t expect a multi-dial and The Eye of Horus cufflinks to go with the three-piece suit stitched in the early 1930s. For that, you need a more contemporary business suit in two pieces.
But old trends are coming back and the need for that classic look is still in demand. You won’t sport a digital watch with it, so let’s see what makes up instead.
There are many among us who prefer the one size fits all approach. Definitely, that’s less of a headache, but you must know what to choose to make use of that theory to the max. Most of the classic timepieces come in a smart and sophisticated look (gold/steel or leather straps with a face inscribed with Roman numerals), paired with golden but plain cufflinks, these prove to be the best with any suit or shirt. As an add-on, they look expensive, a trait that never ages.
But those who are more in-sync with the modern times need to go for the look in stainless steel and titanium. Irrespective of whether they are chunky or funky, modern designs demand watches bigger than their elder siblings. You need to see if the chosen size is at par with the thickness of your wrist.
However, one last point to note: Fashion is not following blindly the current trend; it’s about making the current trend fit your personality and appearance. If golden watches are in, wear it, but not when you are burning the highways on your sports bike. And one more thing, a watch must also reflect the kind of job you are into; if you are a schoolteacher (but not the sports teacher), a big chronograph may just look out of the place.
