Think over Seven Problems before You Buy a Watch



Fashion Zone Report: Can not wait waistband at the time of the day, you spend a year salary to buy a watch in the end for what?

1. Overspending or not?

Price of luxury watch more than 1,000 U.S. dollars to 100 million or more. The most expensive is the Tourbillon, only the elite watchmakers have the technology. (The two century-old mechanical devices constitute the framework of the rotation, rotation, balance wheel and the frame fixed escapement, and to complete a rotation every 60 seconds to offset the timing error caused by gravity.)

2. Rose gold, platinum or gold?

By the gold color of gold mixed with copper and silver content decisions. Gold is always fashionable, but you might consider many of the rose gold watch in one. Gold rose gold in the three highest concentrations of copper, there is a soft, slightly pink hue.

3. Steel or titanium?

Stainless steel high-strength, gloss, and a high degree of rust and corrosion. However, compared to titanium and steel, high strength, 30% lighter and 50%, and more corrosion-resistant, anti-magnetic, or low or even allergic. Less is more soft sheen of titanium sheet (some would say dull), and although the intensity is high, but it scratches easily.

4. Simple or complex?

To tabulation, the complex mechanical watches in addition to referring to other than a simple timekeeping features, such as Calendar or the moon phase indicator. Complex is involved sophisticated mechanical devices, such as calendar and double-second timer, which contains hundreds, of tiny, hand-assembled parts. It requires a lot of labor, production, and special features, so very precious.

5. Large watch or more?

Men's watch, as if the same hormonal stimulation, and gradually become larger; they broke at the turn of this century the boundaries of 40 mm in diameter. A large extent inspired by the wave of Italian drivers from wearing watches old re-release, designed to allow drivers to the beginning of the Mediterranean region in the dark can read the watch. If you watch like hockey, then it will depending on the season, look elegant or compelling.

6. Chronograph or not?

Most respected men watch (a kind of stopwatch watch) because those buttons and dials look deputy man, a shining. They also play a role in mechanical chronograph accurate to a fifth of a second, while the quartz electronic watches are accurate to hundredths of a second. But unless you sign to the Iron Man, otherwise, most of them, or decorative.

7. Water resistance: 5bar or 20bar?

Watch water resistance varies, the main label on the dial or case back. Note that these small lettering, because the depth units are not uniform. Most companies in meters water resistance, it may encounter ATM (atmospheric pressure) or the bar, 1ATM and 1 bar is equivalent to 10 meters. As long as the depth can be selected, 50-meter water resistance means you can take a bath wearing a watch.

Of course, the ultimate one last question for themselves, and to repeatedly ask: in the waistband of his trousers can not wait for time today, you spend a year salary to buy a watch in the end for what?
