Finding the Right Wrist-watches for You

Antique, vintage and luxury 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.

Questions About Hampden Wrist Watch
  • 1stDibs ExpertDecember 17, 2024
    The history of Hampden watches starts in 1866. That's when Donald J. Mozart established the Mozart Watch Company in Providence, Rhode Island. A year later, he renamed his business the New York Watch Company and moved his workshop to Springfield, Massachusetts. After a brief hiatus in the 1870s, the company reopened as the Hampden Watch Company and subsequently relocated to Canton, Ohio, in 1888. During the 19th century, Hampden became well-known for its elegant gold-filled pocket watches. During the 1920s, Hampden merged with another Canton-based watchmaker to form the Dueber-Hampden Watch Company. The new company briefly produced wristwatches and pocket watches but suffered financial difficulties and ultimately closed in 1927. Explore a collection of Hampden watches on 1stDibs.

    The Hampden Watch Company was established in Springfield, Massachusetts in 1877 but was relocated in 1888 to Canton, Ohio. They merged with a watch case manufacturer and watches were produced in Ohio until 1927. At that time, the company failed and a Russian company purchased the brand and has produced their watches from the 1930s on.
