Finding the Right Wrist Watches for You
Antique, new and vintage wristwatches have captured the hearts and minds of all manner of watch collectors as well as the watchmakers themselves — it's time you found your own.
Certain vintage watches for men and iconic watch designs for women are sought after not only because of their graceful proportions or innovative materials but also because of the illustrious histories of the houses that created them, histories that they stylishly embody.
Bulgari’s legendary Serpenti watch was on everyone’s list after the collection’s bold bracelet, which technically debuted after the timepiece, graced the wrist of actress Elizabeth Taylor. If anything, elaborately crafted timepieces — the unmistakably boxy silhouette of Cartier Tank watches, the elegant and minimal Calatrava designed by legendary Swiss house Patek Philippe — are even more effective than the shape we associate with traditional wristwatches.
Form watches — the all-encompassing moniker bestowed upon non-round watches — are making headlines and completing contemporary fashionable ensembles the world over. At the same time, both casual fans and careful collectors are drawn to the unbeatable charm of vintage styles, such as the icons designed by Omega that even James Bond can’t resist.
In the early days of watchmaking, watches were fragile enough that they necessitated protection from the elements. Now, wristwatches made of gold and steel can withstand the harshest climates — even 100 meters underwater, in the case of Rolex’s Submariner. Designer Gérald Genta, whose range of clients included Rolex, created for Audemars Piguet the first luxury sports timepiece to be made from stainless steel. First introduced in 1972, the Royal Oak was a perfect choice for blending the form and function that are now synonymous with sports watches.
Are you shopping for a wristwatch? It’s good to keep your needs as well as your specific personal style in mind: A smaller, subtle timepiece is a good fit for small wrists. When will you be wearing your new accessory? There’s a versatile model out there for everyday wear, while a rugged, feature-heavy watch is a safe bet if you’re prone to embarking on all-weather activities in the great outdoors.
Find antique, new and vintage wristwatches on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023Yes, men can wear rectangular watches. The truth is that men can wear any shape of timepiece they find appealing. In fact, over the years, watch blogs and the fashion press have hinted at the rising profile of non-round watch shapes. Called shaped or form watches, catchall terms for any non-round models, these less-common designs run the geometrical gamut from square and rectangular to barrel, cushion, oval, trapezoidal or completely asymmetrical. On 1stDibs, find a variety of men's watches from some of the world's top sellers.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023Rectangular watches are sometimes called tanks. Cartier pioneered the design and named it after the Renault tanks that the French military used during World War I. A watch with a rectangular case with rounded corners is a tonneau, named after the French word for barrel. On 1stDibs, shop a wide range of watches.
