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 All Wrist Watches
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 13, 2024How a bracelet should fit on your wrist depends on its type. To ensure security, a cuff should have a snug fit and rest right above the wrist. Look for cuffs that are roughly the same circumference as your wrist. Bangles typically fit a little more loosely and are around 0.75 to 1.25 inches larger than your wrist circumference. With tennis, leather and beaded bracelets, aim for a fit that is loose enough that you can slip your finger between the bracelet and your wrist. To determine what length will work for you, add 0.5 to 1 inch to your wrist circumference measurement. Shop a wide variety of bracelets on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertDecember 4, 2023The purpose of wrist cuffs varies. For many people, cuff bracelets are simply accessories that add visual appeal to an outfit and express individuality. Some people do wear leather wrist cuffs for protection. For example, bikers may sport them to prevent road rash in the event of an accident. Shop a diverse assortment of cuff bracelets on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 22, 2024Where a bracelet should sit on the wrist depends on its type. Generally, a cuff bracelet should sit right at the wrist and fit snugly yet comfortably. Bangles, tennis bracelets and other types of bracelets can also sit at the wrist, or you can wear them higher on your arm if you wish. You're also free to layer bracelets to achieve different looks. Find a large selection of bracelets on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertDecember 4, 2023Why people wear leather wrist cuffs varies. Many people do so simply because they like how the bracelets look. However, others may sport them to protect their wrists. You'll see this most often among bikers and cowboys. On 1stDibs, explore an assortment of leather cuff bracelets from some of the world's top dealers.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 3, 2023There are no specific criteria for what makes a military watch a military watch.

- What is a moonphase on a watch?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A moonphase on a watch shows the current phase of the moon as you see it in the sky. Having an accurate moon phase in a watch is a little more difficult than it would seem because a lunar cycle lasts 29 days, 12 hours and 44 minutes meaning that a 135-tooth gear is necessary to drive the moon disc optimally for the exacting standards of watchmakers. Shop a collection of vintage and new moonphase watches from some of the world’s top boutiques on 1stDibs.
- What is a watch complication?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2021With respect to watchmaking, a complication refers to any feature of a timepiece that is in addition to the display of hours, minutes and seconds.
