5 Reasons Every Man Should Own a Gold Watch

Gold watches and fashion statements

Do you own a gold watch? I do. If truth be told, I’ve been wearing one for the better part of 25-years. Whenever I’m out and about, I always have it on my wrist.

It’s nothing fancy or anything – just a middle of the road plain face with traditional hour and minute hands. While I don’t remember the exact price, I do know it cost me less than most designer jeans.

What most guys don’t realize about gold watches is they don’t have to cost a fortune. In truth, you can pick something up that’s reasonably priced without having to compromise on style.

So, you may be wondering why men should own a gold watch? What’s the big deal? Well, I’m about to tell you and it’s probably not for the reasons you may think.

Here are 5 reasons that might surprise you.

 

1. Rugged look

If you are the type of man that prefers the classic, rugged look, you can’t go wrong with a gold watch. The trick is to choose something that’s not all bling. Instead, opt for basic designs with a (mostly) flat face.

2. Goes with anything

What’s great about having a gold watch is knowing it will match everything in your wardrobe. From a casual night out on the town to something formal, a yellow plated timepiece spells classic style.

3. Vibes out regal

When you wear a gold watch, you vibe out regal. That’s not to say you are putting on airs. Instead, you are making a statement about the kind of man you are – sophisticated and worldly. And you don’t have to be Nick Jonas either.

4. People notice

There’s more wrist wear on the market than you can shake a stick at. In the case of men, we usually want to wear something that gets noticed. Nothing over the top of course but instead, eye- catching. By getting a gold watch, you’ll accomplish this in spades.

5. Timeless

The final reason to consider getting a gold watch is because they are timeless. In other words, the one you buy today will look keep its style for decades to come. That’s the thing about this type of wrist wear – it’s popularity never fades.

Wrap Up

I’m not going to tell you where to buy your watch or what brand to go with. The truth is, there are too many options available and there’s just no way I could cover in this one post.

That said, I will say that that quality matters. One of the best places to get ideas and check pricing is Amazon. They have tons of selections with price points that go high to low.

Regardless of your choice, you really can’t go wrong with owning one. A gold watch is an accessory every man should own.
