Choosing the Right Watch for a Woman

When choosing gifts for people, finding the perfect present can be a very daunting task, especially if you don’t know the person well.

Watches are a good and universal choice since it is loved by everyone regardless of gender. However, when choosing a watch for a woman, just any watch won’t do it. This is because, most women don’t view watches as an object for telling time, but a compliment of their beauty.

Therefore, whether the gift is for your partner, friend, mother or a relative, there are a number of factors that you have to consider before settling on the perfect watch.

In this article, I will share five factors that are pivotal in the decision making.

Her Accessory’s taste

This is the most important aspect you should consider. Women like watches they can match with their outfits, something they can brag with while with their friends.

Therefore, make it your aim to notice how she styles up, the kind of jewelry she puts on, the colors she prefers and even the kinds of watches she has if any.

You should also note the kind of activities she takes part in so as to differentiate between a sports watch or a designer watches for women. If she takes part in swimming or other aquatic activities, choose a water-resistant watch and a dress watch for formal events.

Watch’s Movement

The choice between whether she likes a mechanical watch or a quartz watch is up to her personality. Mechanical watches are more engineering based, heavier and usually much larger than quartz watches. They are also not very reliable for time management.

Quartz watches are much smaller and are powered by a battery. They are more durable, more accurate for and require little maintenance.

You should, therefore, determine what kind of person the lady is. However, mechanical watches are more preferred due to their sleek look and are more fashionable.

The material of the watch

For women, the material for the watch should be considered with regards to their skin tone. The watch should complement her beauty and style. Golden watches, like for men, have been favorites for a while among women as it matches most of their accessory.

The strap material is also important as it should match with her dressing. Determine whether she loves leather, metal, nylon or rubber straps.

The straps should be interchangeable for durability and should come in the colors she loves.

Shape and size of the watch

Watches come in various styles and shapes, from rectangular watches, square watches to the circular watches each with unique designs and colors. Before acquiring one, be sure to know her likes and which shape will suit her well.

Also, get to know the size of her wrist so as to determine the size of the watch to get her. Getting an oversized or undersize watch can be embarrassing especially if it’s for your partner or colleague.

With most women wrist sizes being around 11cm to 16cm in diameter, ensure that the dial properly fits her wrist without appearing too big. However, if she loves fashion trends and sports, a large watch may be appropriate.

Brand and Cost of the watch

Like everybody else, women will prefer watches from the major watch brands such as Rolex or Giorgiensen, even if they don’t like its design.

Despite them being expensive, if you can afford it, go for it. However, never go for a watch that is way beyond your means. Whoever you are buying the watch for will probably understand if you get the watch regardless of the price.

For most of them, it’s the thought that counts. However, that is no excuse for getting a shady watch for your lady.

Conclusion

Watches are a huge aspect of fashion and style and have the ability to transform the whole outlook of a person. You should, therefore, be very careful when selecting a watch as a gift or even for yourself.

For women, the most important thing to remember is that the watch should complement her beauty, match her style and fit her perfectly. With the points mention above, you can be sure of getting her a watch she will never put down!
