How do you choose the right watch as a gift?

If you are looking for a stylish wristwatch as a gift, you should not only consider the shape, colors and design, but also the materials, movement and brands. The material quality determines the look of the watch, but also its durability and functionality. Lightweight and hard-wearing materials are recommended if the watches are also to be worn at work and during sport. The material and processing quality of the watch glass is also important to ensure that it remains clear and free from scratches. Cases made of hardened stainless steel and polymer plastic are considered particularly robust. Mineral glass and spahir glass are recommended for watch glasses. The technical heart of a wristwatch is the movement. You can choose between mechanical, electronic, battery-operated and electromechanical movements.

Some watches use quartz crystals as pulse generators. Others rely on a tensioned spring that either has to be rewound manually or is automatically rewound by the wearer's arm movements. For watches that are intended as a valuable gift, you should opt for proven brand quality. The Fossil and Diesel collections offer a particularly large selection of modern and elegant men's and women's watches. Fashion labels such as Calvin Klein, Boss and Armani also offer high-quality watch models that provide that certain something visually.

How do you buy the right size watch?

A fashionably elegant strap rounds off the visual appearance of a wristwatch. To ensure that it fits perfectly and comfortably around the wrist, it is important to choose the right bracelet size. It should be at least a third larger than the circumference of the wrist. Tasteful bracelets are available in plastic, leather, imitation leather, metal and mesh materials. The color and design of the strap should match the case and the wearer's outfit. In addition to subtle colors such as brown, beige and black, there are also models in bright, trendy colors.
