Now that you have chosen your preferred mechanism, it is time to think about the format of your future watch. We will give you some advice right away!
WHAT SIZE WATCH FOR YOUR WRIST?
The size of the watch is a criterion that should not be neglected, because a watch that is too big or too small in relation to your wrist could ruin everything! It is therefore better to choose a watch size proportional to that of your wrist . It is first and foremost a question of comfort, but also of style. You can remember a fundamental rule: the horns of your watch (which are used to attach the bracelet) must never protrude from the wrist. Also note that in general, the bigger the model, the heavier the watch ... Unless, of course, you choose a light material such as wooden watches.

Also, the size of female wrists is generally between 14 and 18 cm, while a man's wrist measures on average between 15 and 19 cm. This is why men's watch cases are generally larger. Thus, if you are a woman with a small wrist whose circumference is less than 15.5 cm, choose a diameter of less than 4 cm for the dial. Indeed, a large watch will not be very classy on a small female wrist. But it's all a matter of taste! After all, it's up to you whether you prefer an imposing case or a thinner and sleeker watch.
As for the size of the bracelet , it is adequate when you can pass the index finger between your wrist and the watch (except for sports watches which are worn a little tighter). It is possible to match the strap of your watch with a pretty Wooden Bracelet for Men and Women , for a most original style.
WHAT FORM OF WATCH?
Are you more of a square and rectangular or round and oval watch? It's time to refine your selection ...
Round and oval watches : this is the most classic shape. If you want to buy an original or even unique watch, but it is this standard shape that you prefer, then we advise you to stand out on the style of the watch or the choice of material.
Square and rectangular watches : there are more and more of them! If at first glance, this shape can give a stricter impression and a more serious style, it is still possible to get original and relaxed models by betting, again, on the material used.
WHICH STRAP TO CHOOSE FOR YOUR WATCH?
Choosing the right watch also means choosing the right strap! Watch straps exist in many materials: leather, rubber, metal or steel, textile or wood… You will be spoiled for choice! Although easily interchangeable, your strap should still be chosen with care, as it will greatly contribute to the overall aesthetic of your watch. Thus, to choose the right strap for your watch , you can take several criteria into account. Let's take a closer look!
THE STYLE OF HIS WATCH (VINTAGE, CLASSIC, MODERN ...)
Your bracelet must, of course, match the style and color of the dial you have chosen! You can bet on harmony with a bracelet in a material similar to the dial, or on the contrary prefer the contrast with an entirely different material. However, make sure that these two materials go well together! And, the same goes for the color of your bracelet.
BRACELET MAINTENANCE
Note that leather will necessarily require more care than rubber for example and that some materials are also more resistant than others. Thus, a wooden or steel bracelet is more inclined to last over time than a leather or fabric bracelet. Do you have a preference for the Wooden Watch ?
SENSITIVITY TO MATERIALS
Some people can have allergic skin reactions to leather, metal or rubber. Do you have reactive skin ? The wooden bracelet is undoubtedly the best for you! This natural material is more easily supported by sensitive skin.
THE SIZE AND THICKNESS OF HIS WATCH
The bracelet must not only match the style of the watch , but also its format. Avoid a thick metal bracelet with a thin and discreet dial for example, at the risk of having a somewhat coherent rendering. Finally, don't forget the most important criterion: choosing the right watch also means choosing a model that looks like you! Naturally, your watch must be adapted to your style and your daily life so that you can wear it to the fullest.
Thus, a person who devotes a large part of his time to physical activities will undoubtedly prefer a sports watch , fans of new technologies will undoubtedly want a digital connected watch, while a man or a businesswoman will have more easily crush on a mechanical watch. The advantage is that today there is something for everyone! We hope in any case that these tips will help you choose the watch that suits you best. Have you fallen for a model on our site?
