Tips & Advice to help you make your decision on Watches
In the jewelry trade, there is nothing more functional than a quality watch. Retailers of jewelry can increase their sales by adding a collection of quality watches to the products they stock on a regular basis. The best aspect about carrying a watch or two is the huge variety that is available.
Themes.
Timepieces have long been a way for individuals to express themselves. With the face of the watch acting as a blank slate, it can be covered by any number of logos for sports teams, music artists, vacation destinations and more.
Bling.
A watch can be simply utilitarian, but it can also be a piece of delicate jewelry full of sparkle and jewels. Whether the design is gold or silver, heirloom diamonds make a great addition to the numbers on the face or the frame around it. Other gems can come into play as well, and with removable and interchangeable frames, the wearer can match the watch to his or her wardrobe.
Alternative Designs.
Watches come in a wide variety of physical designs. Everyone is familiar with the wrist watch or pocket watch, but they are also available in necklaces, rings, and brooches. This makes adding timepieces to your retail collection a source of revenue from a great number of customers with varying tastes.Buying the Right Watch
How to ensure your watch reflects the right imageBy Cris Robins, Writer Writer for Hire There was a time when the only watch an employee cared about was the pocket watch they received at their retirement party. Today there are watches for every occasion, budget, and image.
There are equally as many ways to purchase a watch, from wholesale watch dealers, customizable watches, wholesales watches, to watches online including watch parts.
Some of the most common timepieces worn are a wrist watch, jewelry watch, or a designer pocket watch.
Which one is right for you depends on a few basic questions:
1. What do you want it to do?
2. What do you want it to say about you?
3. How much do you want to pay?
Once you've made these decisions, buying the right watch is simple.
If you want a watch to simply tell time and look good an everyday watch will work. A watch can also be a fashion statement which can say anything from your social status to your love of cartoons to a reflection of your hiking or running skills.
The cost of a good watch can run as little as $20; however, they can also be an investment of $50,000 or more. What you pay will depend on not only the brand name but also the features you want it to include.
Get a watch that tells time ... and so much more
A watch is basically an instrument that tells time. However, they can also keep track of your laps, your calories, your best exercise or running time, or can be used as stop watches, and can record your time, distance, and race rates; and can be shockproof, waterproof, as well as a fashion statement.
Try:
REI for a selection of over 40 different multifunction watches. Simply elegant watches for everyday use are at Timex or Seiko.
Make your watch a major fashion statement
People notice watches; they are almost the single most important fashion statement a person can make. As with other fashion statements, the more expensive the watch, the more fashionable it is considered and the more reflective of your lifestyle.
Try:
Two of the most world renowned watch makers are Rolex and Cartier. Not as well-known, but of very high quality, are watches from Swiss watchmakers Tag Heuer.
A good watch needn't be expensive
Nearly every retail or jewelry store has a watch department with prices ranging from $20 to several thousand dollars. With the variety of styles and prices available there are multiple watches for multiple events or outfits.
Try:
For daily wear and under $50 watches, try Wal-Mart or JCPenney. For special events or jewelry watches in the $100 and above price range, try Blue Nile or Ashford. Each of these outlets also have online purchasing available.
- Decide what you want your timepiece to do. Is telling time or looking good enough, or do you need more?
- Realize that you can have more than one. Matching your watch to your outfit is a good fashion statement.
- A good watch dealer can help you decide whether men's watches or women's watches are the right watch for your occasion.
- When choosing a watch be sure to equate cost with quality. Although a $20 watch can last as long as one costing over $100 it may not fit as well, keep time as accurately, or look as nice.
