January 5, 2012 in Tips and ideas
In the market there are many kinds of watches. How do you find one that fits your style? Or better – how to know if the watch model you have chosen is best for you? Currently, there are many brands and models. Other than that, the fashion already allows you to risk models that are more in keeping with your personality, even if not a big brand.
To set the choice before you decide which watch you will actually take, watch out also for the model of the bracelet. A simple tip – the bracelets thinner, more delicate with drawings, models tend to be female. The thicker and heavier, usually adorn the boxes of the male models. Make sure that the watch actually works for you.
In other words, buy a watch clock where you can even see the time. Do not buy a purely decorative piece. The style can be chosen and should be very important.
For a sleek and sophisticated look, get a silver watch to look sleek and thin.
To look more casual, choose a model with a wide belt or strap of leather. These models, because they are more related to fashion, can be used by both sexes with more flexibility. For a look with more class and taste, buy a nice analog clock metal. This is an excellent choice.
Another choice that needs to be set is if you want a quartz watch with a mechanical watch battery or the rope. Quartz, the most common type of watches, offering accuracy and stability.
A small piece of quartz oscillates at more than 32,000 vibrations per second to ensure the accuracy of time, which explains why these watches lose only 10 seconds per month. Plus, quartz watches do not require rope and just needs to replace the battery once every one or two years.
These watches have several different styles – analog, digital and analog to digital.
Mechanical watches are more traditional and usually more expensive than quartz, due to the ability and cost of work required to create a complex piece.
These watches rely on a spring (main spring) to provide energy to the oscillator (often a wheel called the “balance wheel”) as it spins. The wheel oscillates at about 28,000 times per hour, which means that the watch can lose several seconds within the same month. Therefore, it requires more attention. However, it is synonymous with beauty, good taste and sophistication in most models.
To treat the clock as a real gem, nothing better than those made of precious metals, which have a classic look. This type of watch, often presents the options ‘masculine’ and ‘feminine’ well defined.
A tip for those who really like to wear jewelry, so that we avoid the hype and fanfare in the desired look, keep in mind that if you use a certain type of jewelry, find watches in gold, silver or platinum to match. The watches come in many aluminum models are excellent and very practical, because they resist stains, rust and corrosion.
The stainless steel models, a durable metal, are good choices for those who want to perpetuate the clock. Watches Sport models that require tougher materials always use titanium in its composition, a white metal and strong.
The watches are lightweight titanium 30% stronger than steel and corrosion resistant. Usually they have a protection to make them more resistant to scratches.
As with every type of occasion there is a certain type to dress, also has a clock right to use and match type of clothing you are using.
For example, when you go to a wedding party, you must be using a more classic watch, to own that place and you do not call as much attention from other people. Now, if you like playing sports we need to use a different atch, which is a little lighter and monitor, for example, as long as you do running. There are watches that can also show your heart rate.
Several people are in doubt when choosing a watch. Take your time: set the model you want and see if it meets your needs and wants.
