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.
Questions About Watch And Dial
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 17, 2023The main dial on a Daytona watch is the time in hours and minutes, and the three smaller dials are timers. The one at the bottom is a 30-second timer, while the right and left dials are 30-minutes and 12-hour timers, respectively. Find a collection of Rolex Daytona watches on 1stDibs.
- What is a California Watch Dial?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2021A California watch dial is a clock face featuring half Roman numerals (generally for 10 o’clock to 2 o’clock) and half Arabic numerals (generally for 4 o’clock to 8 o’clock). A dash might replace the hours of 3, 6, and 9 — instead of the comparatively unexciting numerical representation — and an inverted triangle might be used to represent the hour of 12. On 1stDibs, find a variety of antique, modern and contemporary watches.
- What is a matte dial on a watch?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A matte dial of a watch refers to the finish, which is flat in appearance, in comparison with its glossier counterparts which have a shine to their finish. The lume plots are typically painted on, instead of being applied. You can shop a collection of expertly vetted watches from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023The three dials on a chronograph watch vary. Generally, the dials are 30-second, 60-minute and 12-hour timers used to precisely track time, but some timepieces may have different dials. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of chronograph watches.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022On a watch, a “tropical dial” is one that was originally black in color but has since faded to a deep brown color. Rather than being viewed as a design flaw, a tropical dial is believed by some to give a timepiece more value by adding one-of-a-kind character. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of tropical-dial watches.
- What is a blue dial?1 Answer
Roman Malakov DiamondsMarch 22, 2021A watch with a blue dial is a watch with a blue "face". The dial is the face of the clock that is marked to show the units of time. This is the part of the watch that holds the numbers, hands, etc. - What is a serti dial?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021Serti watch dials are dials that are set with precious gems such as diamonds, sapphires, emeralds, and rubies. The word serti is derived from the French word “sertir” which means to set — the term Serti dial is used by Rolex to refer to its gem-studded dials. Find vintage Rolex watches today on 1stDibs.
- What is a panda dial Daytona?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023A panda dial Daytona is a nickname for a timepiece made by the luxury watchmaker Rolex. Specifically, the term describes a Daytona watch with a white dial and black sub-dials. Any watch with this black-on-white design may be called a panda. On 1stDibs, find a range of Rolex Daytona watches.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022Yes, you can change the dial on a Rolex. However, the luxury watchmaker cautions you not to try and make changes to Rolex watches yourself. To install a new dial, visit an authorized Rolex service center. On 1stDibs, find a selection of Rolex watches.
- Who invented California dial?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The California dial likely originated in the 1930s because Californians loved mixing Roman and Arabic numbers. However, the style grew in popularity in the 1970s when refinisher Kirk Rich was tasked with creating California dial watch faces. You’ll find a range of California dial watches on 1stDibs.
- What is a Rolex matte dial?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A Rolex matte dial is a timepiece made by the Swiss luxury watchmaker Rolex that has a particular type of dial or face. Matte refers to dials that have a flat finish rather than a glossy shine. Shop a wide range of Rolex watches on 1stDibs.
- What is a Rolex Ghost dial?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 17, 2023The term Rolex Ghost Dial is a nickname for rare variants of Rolex Datejust watches from the 16XXX series. These timepieces have gray dials with white text and silver-toned hour markers. On 1stDibs, find a selection of Rolex Datejust watches.
- What is a drop dial clock?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A drop dial clock is similar to a dial clock, but it has a longer drop or extends further from the bottom of the clock to accommodate a longer pendulum. Drop dial clocks also have different gearing than dial clocks, but it's the way the clocks look that most quickly distinguishes them from other clocks. Shop a collection of drop dial clocks from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The dial on a Rolex Submariner tracks the time. A diving bezel that surrounds it allows the wearer to measure decompression stops while scuba diving. Its presence and high level of water resistance are what makes the timepiece a diver's watch. Shop a variety of Rolex Submariner watches on 1stDibs.
- What is the Rolex lapis dial?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 3, 2023The Rolex lapis dial is a watch face or dial crafted out of lapis lazuli, a semiprecious stone. Timepieces that feature the dial catch the eye, thanks to their vibrant cobalt blue color. Shop a selection of Rolex watches on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The maxi dial on the Rolex 5513 refers to the hour and minute hands, which are larger on this particular model than the standard markers on other styles. You can shop a collection of expertly vetted Rolex watches from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The three different dials on the Rolex Daytona mark different times. The sub dial at 3 o'clock marks the chrono minutes, the sub dial at 6 o'clock marks the seconds for the time and the sub dial at 9 o'clock shows the number of hours elapsed for the chrono. On 1stDibs, find vintage and contemporary Rolex watches from some of the top sellers around the world.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes, you can indeed change the dial color on your Rolex watch. To avoid any damage to your luxury timepiece, you can contact Rolex directly to discuss options. You’ll also find a large collection of Rolex watches from many of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
