The wristwatch that many now see as an essential accessory has an interesting history. The design first surfaced in the late 1800s. Back then, it was more of a woman’s accessory. It was only during the first World War that this changed.

Soldiers found their pocket watches unwieldy and inconvenient. They fashioned their version of a wristwatch. After the war, the fashion held, and so these timepieces became more popular. Today, they’re even more popular and have evolved to the status of an essential accessory.

You’d think that the technological advances made over the last few years would make a timepiece obsolete. And, technically, you’d be right. We can check the time on many different electronic devices now.

Setting reminders on your smartphone makes it easy to be punctual. So, why then are timepieces still in such demand? There are many reasons for this:

  • Convenience: Glancing at your wrist for the time is a lot easier than pulling out your smartphone. That’s especially true if you want to be discreet about checking the time.

  • Helps with productivity: Some of us are disciplined with our phones. Some of us aren’t. Checking your phone for the time could lead you to review other messages. You might end up wasting valuable time with this distraction. 

  • Battery power: A smartphone is great, but its battery life is not. A watch battery, on the other hand, will last two years or more. You don’t have to risk missing an appointment if your phone runs out of power. 

  • It’s not just about telling the time: Your timepiece makes a statement about your personality. Do you value fine craftsmanship? Do you want to convey confidence or that you have a lot of money? Your chronograph gives these subtle hints to people around you.

  • It’s an accessory that is always acceptable: If you work in a conservative office environment, you don’t have a lot of choices when it comes to accessories. A great watch is one accessory that is always allowed.

  • It could be an heirloom: Choose a high-quality option, and you’ll have a present for your son when he graduates. Or starts a new job, or to celebrate any occasion. 

  • It’s an excellent gift idea: Not sure what to get that special man in your life? You can’t go wrong with watches. Stick to simple lines, and you’ll have a gift that the recipient will treasure for ages.
