Luxury Watches Sale

The history of luxury watches as a viable men’s accessory can be traced back to the late 16th century in Europe with the advent of the mechanical pocket watch. The mechanical pocket watch was the norm in the industry all the way until the mid-20th century when the advent of the quartz watch arrived in the 1960’s. The quartz watch is powered by electricity and a solenoid powers the balance wheel. Most of the mass-produced watches in the market today are of the quartz variety while the high-end luxury watch market is still dominated by the mechanical variety. From the onset of the first wristwatch produced sometime in the 1810’s, the wristwatch was marketed primarily as a bracelet geared towards women, while the pocket watch was the norm for men all the way up until the mid-20th century.

In recent times, the wristwatch for men has become a primary daily accessory for many men around the world. However, not all watches are created equal. There are a few brands or watch makers that stand head and shoulder above the competition. A luxury watch is a statement that incorporates impeccable craftmanship, art, and aesthetics. These master crafted time pieces are individually handmade and are meant to last a lifetime. Many luxury watches are often passed down within families as heirlooms around the world. These miniature works of worth often range in price from the thousands all the way up to the millions.
