How to choose your first women's watch and not make a mistake ?

We live in interesting times. It is interesting and, probably, a turning point in all respects, but this is especially noticeable in the disappearance of old, familiar household items and the appearance of new, previously unprecedented ones. The phrase that has become a meme: “If you come to the forest, call me” perfectly illustrates the novelty... However, such processes and phenomena are typical not only for the current era. Let us recall Marshak's famous poem "Yesterday and Today" about obsolete objects.


We, however, about our present and, most importantly, about women's watches . It would seem - well, why are they today? Everyone now has a mobile phone, of course, it also has a watch, but with a lot of functions: the current time (very accurate), alarm clocks, switching to any time zone, measuring time intervals (i.e. chronograph function), reverse timers countdown, etc. etc. Well, wristwatches are a thing of the past? But no! It may be paradoxical, but the fact is the fact: the watch is quite alive and relevant. Partly the point is that they create or at least complement the image of a person, being an accessory in this sense. But from a purely utilitarian point of view - alive, alive, how!

And now, suppose an important moment has come for you: you have come to the conclusion that something is missing on your women watch wrist. “Something” is slyness, women watch naturally, hours are not enough. Are you trying to figure out which ones? And you find that the choice is incredibly wide, your eyes run wide. Where to start? What type of Mens watch, brand, model should you prefer as your first watch? Well, let's try to systematize a little.


PRICE: TAKE EXPENSIVE OR NOT SO?

Still, for a start, probably not very much. We do not advocate for very cheap ones, not at all; but some caution would be in order. After all, you are not an expert yet, and you don’t have any experience yet - what if the watch doesn’t please you? It happens, it’s a matter of taste, but is it worth it to risk unnecessary spending? Of course, everyone has their own concept of high cost, but, averaging somewhat, they would recommend in your debut not to go beyond, say, 150 thousand rubles: this is about $ 2,000, conditionally the upper limit of the accessible luxury segment, i.e. affordable luxury. Above is already (also, of course, conditionally) luxury as such. Let's leave that for the future.


GOLDEN?


Not! We do not recommend immediately turning to gold. Of course, watches made of it are truly beautiful and prestigious, but still - here we are guided by the same principle of caution when choosing - it makes sense to start your watchmaking career with stainless steel watches. By the way, there are quite exclusive and expensive watch models from it, but even in the price range that we decided on above, this is the main material. Except for high-tech composites, but we will talk about them a little later. Steel is always an unmistakable choice, and it is always in trend too.

 

MECHANICAL OR QUARTZ?

The watch world is very specific. Judge for yourself: electronic watches have the highest accuracy (a maximum of a few seconds per month, this is provided by a quartz crystal vibrating at a frequency of 32,768 Hertz) and huge autonomy (you just need to change the battery every few years). And watches on pure mechanics run with an accuracy of several seconds, too, but women watch per day (the oscillation frequency of the regulatory body is about 10 thousand times lower), but they require a plant, if not daily, then a little less often. And yet: mechanics are much more prestigious! The thing is that it, watch micromechanics, is not just a technique, it is also an art. Imagine dozens or even hundreds of the smallest details - wheels, springs, cogs - work in a well-coordinated ensemble! How much skill and talent is invested in this miracle! And then there's the finish: The movements of good watches (and we only want good ones) are always finely decorated. Just knowing what you have on your hand can warm your heart. Plus, the back cover of the case is often made transparent, so if you wish, you can admire the work of the "engine" - a separate pleasure! And for ordinary life, in which there are no super-requirements, mechanical watches are absolutely suitable!

Nevertheless, we do not insist, because quartz watches are also very, very good, they can also please you. A little later we will illustrate with examples.

The Final Selection

If you ask the average person with which country in the world he associates the very concept of “watch”, then the answer will be: Switzerland. To a large extent, this is true, the “Swiss Made” marking on the dial is almost tantamount to a quality women watch mark. However, it so happened that this marking itself heats up the price of the product (like a three-beam Mercedes star), and not always, if you look objectively, with due reason. Without excluding Swiss products, we would advise debutants to pay attention to Japan. Perfectionism (almost fanatical), inherent in the masters from the Land of the Rising Sun, extends to watches, both electronic and mechanical, and the price level is noticeably lower. Examples are again below.
