Male strap watch with what to wear what is customary to wear?

Male strap watch with what to wear what is customary to wear? I wonder what should I put the clock when I'm dressed formally and what, when I undress in (say casual). Curious what my clock fits best to the shirt.


Hand clock is considered the basic and most important accessory in men probably due to the fact that representatives of the strong sex do not usually wear much jewelry - limited to a wedding ring and watch.

Hand clock is an important element of the style of the man and his clothing. Quite rightly think of a different kind of clothes to wear different watches. The rule states: the more subtle and elegant watch is the more appropriate it is for formal occasions.

Towards evening the official clothier always wear black shoes and black belt, and accordingly with a black leather watch strap. Clocks with metal chains are suitable for office, the rule here is to combine colored belt buckle with the belt. If your clock has a gold chain, belt buckle should also be in that color. The same goes for the silver version. Sport watches in no case can be combined with formal men's wear. They are for leisure and excellent fit T-shirt or even shorts and sandals.

Another important criterion for selecting a clock the size of the dial to the wrist. Clock with the face normal size is not suitable for a big man - his hand would have stood as a lady. Some admirers of the male accessory that goes even farther - Watch strap and arrows are the same color.

Ultimately, if you are unable to obtain the various clocks according to the different clothing styles, we recommend you opt for a classic watch. He has a white dial with black leather strap. If you have one, you can wear it both in the office and official to suit.

Clasp type: Velcro
Dial color: white
Dial window material: Mineral
Movement type: Quartz
Water-resistant to 100 meters

To start the review, i'd like to point out that this is a very beautiful watch. It's the best looking watch i've ever owned, and I love the way it looks when either i'm wearing it, or when it's on my desk. The dial window on the watch is made of a scratch-resistant mineral and I have not had any scratches on it despite even accidentally bumping it on my truck's tailgate yesterday. This is a very sturdy and durable watch. It's also water resistant to 100 meters and i've gotten it wet on several occasions and it stays true to it's water resistance. It's good for swimming too as it says in the manual. It's also an extremely accurate watch, i've noticed that I feel as if i'm keeping track of time much more accurately now since i've had it, and that's very important to me. Also, it has another dial around the face of the watch with the numbers: 15, 30, 45, and 60, to time 15-second increments, 30-second, or a minute. The watch also has the date where the 3 o 'clock hour is. (Which says the 3rd of June right now of course). Also, the band is nylon velcro and it's very comfortable on my wrist as I wear this watch all day, every day. The velcro makes it easy to put the watch on, and take it off, and if you want to look at the bottom of the watch, you can remove the band to do so.

Concluding the review, i'm extremely satisfied with this Victorinox Swiss Army Watch and it deserves 5/5 stars for it's excellent quality, durability, and craftsmanship.

Development of the Timepiece Business
With the launch of its first watch in November 1974, Casio entered the wristwatch market at a time when the watch industry had just discovered digital technology. As a company with cutting-edge electronic technology developed for pocket calculators, Casio entered this field confident that it could develop timepieces that would lead the market.

In developing its own wristwatches Casio began with the basic question, "What is a wristwatch?" Rather than simply making a digital version of the conventional mechanical watch, we thought that the ideal wristwatch should be something that shows all facets of time in a consistent way. Based on this, Casio was able to create a watch that displayed the precise time including the second, minute, hour, day, and month — not to mention a.m. or p.m., and the day of the week. It was the first watch in the world with a digital automatic calendar function that eliminated the need to reset the calendar due the variation in month length. Rather than using a conventional watch face and hands, a digital liquid crystal display was adopted to better show all the information. This culminated in the 1974 launch of the CASIOTRON, the world’s first digital watch with automatic calendar. The CASIOTRON won acclaim as a groundbreaking product that represented a complete departure from the conventional wristwatch.

Casio transformed the concept of the watch — from a mere timepiece to an information device for the wrist — and undertook product planning based on this innovative idea. We developed not only time functions such as global time zone watches, but also other radical new functions using Casio’s own digital technology, including calculator and dictionary functions, as well as a phonebook feature based on memory technology, and even a thermometer function using a built-in sensor. The memory-function watches became our DATA BANK product series, while the sensor watches developed into two unique Casio product lines of today: the Pathfinder series displaying altitude, atmospheric pressure, and compass readings.

In 1983, Casio launched the shock-resistant G-SHOCK watch. This product shattered the notion that a watch is a fragile piece of jewelry that needs to be handled with care, and was the result of Casio engineers taking on the challenge of creating the world’s toughest watch. Using a triple-protection design for the parts, module, and case, the G-SHOCK offered a radical new type of watch that was unaffected by strong impacts or shaking. Its practicality was immediately recognized, and its unique look, which embodied its functionality, became wildly popular, resulting in explosive sales in the early 1990s. The G-SHOCK soon adopted various new sensors, solar-powered radio-controlled technology (described below), and new materials for even better durability. By always employing the latest technology, and continuing to transcend conventional thinking about the watch, the G-SHOCK brand has become Casio’s flagship timepiece product.

Today, Casio is focusing its efforts on solar-powered radio-controlled watches: the built-in solar battery eliminates the nuisance of replacing batteries, and the radio-controlled function means users never have to reset the time. In particular, the radio-controlled function represents a revolution in time-keeping technology similar to the impact created when mechanical watches gave way to quartz technology. Through the further development of high radio-wave sensitivity, miniaturization, and improved energy efficiency, Casio continues to produce a whole range of radio-controlled models.

Timex Brand

The Timex Watch Company

Timex Group B.V. is one of the best-known American watch companies. Timex's U.S. headquarters are located in Middlebury Connecticut and it has substantial operations in China, the Philippines and India and full scale sales companies in Canada, the UK, France and Mexico.

The company began in 1854 as Waterbury Clock in Connecticut's Naugatuck Valley, known during the nineteenth century as the "Switzerland of America." Sister company Waterbury Watch manufactured the first inexpensive mechanical pocket watch in 1880. During World War I, Waterbury began making wristwatches, which had only just become popular, and in 1933 it made history by creating the first Mickey Mouse clock under license from Walt Disney, with Mickey's hands pointing the time.

During World War II, Waterbury renamed itself U.S. Time Company. In 1950 the company introduced a wristwatch called the Timex. Over the next three decades, Timex was sold through a series of advertisements which emphasized its durability by putting the watch through "torture tests," such as falling over the Grand Coulee Dam or being strapped to the propeller of an outboard motor, with the slogan "It takes a licking and keeps on ticking." With the help of former Olympic broadcaster, spokesman John Cameron Swayze, sales took off. The company later became Timex Corporation, then Timex Group and, to date, has sold over one billion watches.

The company has remained very competitive and the Timex brand continues its dominance through present day. Its primary market remains the United States and Canada, although the Timex brand is sold worldwide due to its ability to capitalize on its strong brand image and reputation for quality.

One of the most successful and important features available on many Timex watches is the Indiglo backlight system. Indiglo is a brand name of Indiglo Corporation, solely owned by Timex for licensing purposes. Timex electroluminescent lamps, branded Indiglo, were introduced in 1992 in the Ironman watch line. They were an immediate success. The Indiglo® lamp uniformly lights the surface of the Timex’s watch dials in a manner that makes the dial read very easily in many different light settings. In some newer watches the Indiglo backlight only lights up the numbers, rather than the entire LCD display, which is achieved by means of a specialized film that inverts the LCD transmissivity.

Today, Timex Group products are manufactured in the Far East and in Switzerland often based on technology that continues to be developed in the United States and in Germany. With a large and varied line of watches, Timex has the style for everyone. From the locker room to the board room, there is a great Timex style time-piece for you.

Keep time with military precision while adding a unique edge to your wardrobe with the Citizen Eco-Drive Men's Chronograph Canvas Watch. Featuring the clean look and the rugged dependability of a stainless steel case and bezel, this timepiece relies on the unique Citizen Eco-Drive movement system, so you never need to replace its battery. Eco-Drive is an advanced, technical system that uses a thin solar panel under the dial to convert light energy from any source into electrical energy used to run your watch. Also playing a key role in this unique system is a special energy storage cell that greatly increases the efficiency and dependability of using light as a power source. As an added benefit, Eco-Drive power doesn't utilize the harmful chemicals contained in traditional batteries, so it's an excellent environmental choice as well.

The watch features a black dial with easy-to-read Arabic numerals in white, a convenient date window at four o'clock, a slim second tracker on the outer dial, and three subdials that provide chronograph functionality along with the ability to track hours on a 24-hour scale. The dial is further offset with luminescent minute and hour hands and a sweeping red seconds hand. Even the cool canvas band on this watch offers ultra-detailed construction. In addition to featuring a sturdy buckle clasp that relies on steel-reinforced eyelets, the band is backed with leather, which provides added durability and results in a pleasant feel against your wrist. This versatile men's watch is water resistant to 330 feet.

*Charging information: Functions of this watch may not work correctly if the watch is not charged, or charged properly. Please see the full Technical Information.


To set the time *(refer to full-setting instructions here: Manual ):

Pull the crown out to the time correction position when the second hand has reached the 0 seconds position.
Turn the crown to set the time. The 24-hour hand moves in conjunction with the hour hand. Pay attention to AM and PM when setting the time.
Securely return the crown to the normal position in synchronization with a telephone or other time service.



To set the date:

Pull the crown out to the date correction position.
Turn the crown to the right to set the date. The crown turns freely and the date does not change if the crown is turned to the left.
If the date is set while the time on the watch is between the hours of about 9:00 PM and 1:00 AM, the date may not change on the following day. If this happens, set the date after temporarily moving the hands to a time other than between the above times.


Using the Chronograph*:

The chronograph function of this watch is able to measure and display elasped time up to 59 minutes, 59 seconds in 1 second units. After 60 minutes have elasped, each of the chronograph hands automatically stop at the 12:00 position.

Chronograph Timing:

Start timing by pressing button (A). The chronograph is repeatedly started and stopped by pressing button (A).
Pressing button (B) resets the chronograph to 0 seconds.
*Note: Do not subject the chronograph to strong impacts while chronograph timing is in progress. Subjecting the watch to a strong impact during chronograph timing or when the chronograph has stopped automatically after 60 minutes have elasped can cause the chronograph minute hand to shift out of position. If this happens, press button (B) to reset to the 12:00 position before using the chronograph again.





The Citizen Watch Brand

The company was established in 1924. The founding fathers selected the name Citizen so it would be "Close to the Hearts of People Everywhere" and soon after adopted the company’s formal name, Citizen Watch Company.

During the last seventy-five years Citizen has expanded its business throughout the world and has achieved recognition as the global brand. The past twenty-five year period has coincided with the company’s dramatic rise to its current position as the world’s largest watchmaker, a distinction Citizen has held every year since 1986.

Beyond sheer size, Citizen is also recognized as a worldwide leader in advanced technology. From the world’s slimmest LCD watch to the first voice recognition watch and the world’s first professional dive watch with an electronic depth sensor, Citizen’s record of "world’s firsts" is unmatched.

More recently, Citizen has staked out a new position as the leader in Ecologically Friendly timekeeping with its Eco-Drives watches that are light powered. With models ranging from dress models to sports models to professional dive watches, Citizen Eco-Drive runs continuously in any kind of natural or artificial light for a lifetime of use. Fueled by light, it never needs a battery.

Eco-Drive Frequently Asked Questions (See the full Citizen Eco-Drive FAQ here)

How can you tell if the Eco-Drive watch is getting enough light?
In normal use, the watch displays the time and the sweep-second hand moves in one second intervals. A very important feature of Eco-Drive is the Low Charge Warning Mode which as a result of low battery voltage, causes the second hand to jump two seconds at a time (while still keeping correct time).

How long will an Eco-Drive watch run after it is fully charged?
If your watch is put away where no light is available to it while in a fully charged state, depending on the model, it will run for from 45 days to 5 years.

How can the Eco-Drive watch be recharged?
Besides sunlight, it can be safely charged by exposing it to a fluorescent desk lamp, with the dial (face) up and within about 8 inches or an incandescent lamp (regular light bulb) no closer than 20 inches. Never use a halogen lamp since the heat generated by it can cause damage to your watch. The most efficient and the quickest is in direct bright sunlight (not

The Timex Watch Company

Timex Group B.V. is one of the best-known American watch companies. Timex's U.S. headquarters are located in Middlebury Connecticut and it has substantial operations in China, the Philippines and India and full scale sales companies in Canada, the UK, France and Mexico.

The company began in 1854 as Waterbury Clock in Connecticut's Naugatuck Valley, known during the nineteenth century as the "Switzerland of America." Sister company Waterbury Watch manufactured the first inexpensive mechanical pocket watch in 1880. During World War I, Waterbury began making wristwatches, which had only just become popular, and in 1933 it made history by creating the first Mickey Mouse clock under license from Walt Disney, with Mickey's hands pointing the time.

During World War II, Waterbury renamed itself U.S. Time Company. In 1950 the company introduced a wristwatch called the Timex. Over the next three decades, Timex was sold through a series of advertisements which emphasized its durability by putting the watch through "torture tests," such as falling over the Grand Coulee Dam or being strapped to the propeller of an outboard motor, with the slogan "It takes a licking and keeps on ticking." With the help of former Olympic broadcaster, spokesman John Cameron Swayze, sales took off. The company later became Timex Corporation, then Timex Group and, to date, has sold over one billion watches.

The company has remained very competitive and the Timex brand continues its dominance through present day. Its primary market remains the United States and Canada, although the Timex brand is sold worldwide due to its ability to capitalize on its strong brand image and reputation for quality.

One of the most successful and important features available on many Timex watches is the Indiglo backlight system. Indiglo is a brand name of Indiglo Corporation, solely owned by Timex for licensing purposes. Timex electroluminescent lamps, branded Indiglo, were introduced in 1992 in the Ironman watch line. They were an immediate success. The Indiglo® lamp uniformly lights the surface of the Timex’s watch dials in a manner that makes the dial read very easily in many different light settings. In some newer watches the Indiglo backlight only lights up the numbers, rather than the entire LCD display, which is achieved by means of a specialized film that inverts the LCD transmissivity.

Today, Timex Group products are manufactured in the Far East and in Switzerland often based on technology that continues to be developed in the United States and in Germany. With a large and varied line of watches, Timex has the style for everyone. From the locker room to the board room, there is a great Timex style time-piece for you.

Casio Men's Classic Digital Watch

Development of the Timepiece Business
With the launch of its first watch in November 1974, Casio entered the wristwatch market at a time when the watch industry had just discovered digital technology. As a company with cutting-edge electronic technology developed for pocket calculators, Casio entered this field confident that it could develop timepieces that would lead the market.

In developing its own wristwatches Casio began with the basic question, "What is a wristwatch?" Rather than simply making a digital version of the conventional mechanical watch, we thought that the ideal wristwatch should be something that shows all facets of time in a consistent way. Based on this, Casio was able to create a watch that displayed the precise time including the second, minute, hour, day, and month — not to mention a.m. or p.m., and the day of the week. It was the first watch in the world with a digital automatic calendar function that eliminated the need to reset the calendar due the variation in month length. Rather than using a conventional watch face and hands, a digital liquid crystal display was adopted to better show all the information. This culminated in the 1974 launch of the CASIOTRON, the world’s first digital watch with automatic calendar. The CASIOTRON won acclaim as a groundbreaking product that represented a complete departure from the conventional wristwatch.

Casio transformed the concept of the watch — from a mere timepiece to an information device for the wrist — and undertook product planning based on this innovative idea. We developed not only time functions such as global time zone watches, but also other radical new functions using Casio’s own digital technology, including calculator and dictionary functions, as well as a phonebook feature based on memory technology, and even a thermometer function using a built-in sensor. The memory-function watches became our DATA BANK product series, while the sensor watches developed into two unique Casio product lines of today: the Pathfinder series displaying altitude, atmospheric pressure, and compass readings.

In 1983, Casio launched the shock-resistant G-SHOCK watch. This product shattered the notion that a watch is a fragile piece of jewelry that needs to be handled with care, and was the result of Casio engineers taking on the challenge of creating the world’s toughest watch. Using a triple-protection design for the parts, module, and case, the G-SHOCK offered a radical new type of watch that was unaffected by strong impacts or shaking. Its practicality was immediately recognized, and its unique look, which embodied its functionality, became wildly popular, resulting in explosive sales in the early 1990s. The G-SHOCK soon adopted various new sensors, solar-powered radio-controlled technology (described below), and new materials for even better durability. By always employing the latest technology, and continuing to transcend conventional thinking about the watch, the G-SHOCK brand has become Casio’s flagship timepiece product.

Today, Casio is focusing its efforts on solar-powered radio-controlled watches: the built-in solar battery eliminates the nuisance of replacing batteries, and the radio-controlled function means users never have to reset the time. In particular, the radio-controlled function represents a revolution in time-keeping technology similar to the impact created when mechanical watches gave way to quartz technology. Through the further development of high radio-wave sensitivity, miniaturization, and improved energy efficiency, Casio continues to produce a whole range of radio-controlled models.

The Citizen Watch Brand

The company was established in 1924. The founding fathers selected the name Citizen so it would be "Close to the Hearts of People Everywhere" and soon after adopted the company’s formal name, Citizen Watch Company.

During the last seventy-five years Citizen has expanded its business throughout the world and has achieved recognition as the global brand. The past twenty-five year period has coincided with the company’s dramatic rise to its current position as the world’s largest watchmaker, a distinction Citizen has held every year since 1986.

Beyond sheer size, Citizen is also recognized as a worldwide leader in advanced technology. From the world’s slimmest LCD watch to the first voice recognition watch and the world’s first professional dive watch with an electronic depth sensor, Citizen’s record of "world’s firsts" is unmatched.

More recently, Citizen has staked out a new position as the leader in Ecologically Friendly timekeeping with its Eco-Drives watches that are light powered. With models ranging from dress models to sports models to professional dive watches, Citizen Eco-Drive runs continuously in any kind of natural or artificial light for a lifetime of use. Fueled by light, it never needs a battery.

Eco-Drive Frequently Asked Questions (See the full Citizen Eco-Drive FAQ here)

How can you tell if the Eco-Drive watch is getting enough light?
In normal use, the watch displays the time and the sweep-second hand moves in one second intervals. A very important feature of Eco-Drive is the Low Charge Warning Mode which as a result of low battery voltage, causes the second hand to jump two seconds at a time (while still keeping correct time).

How long will an Eco-Drive watch run after it is fully charged?
If your watch is put away where no light is available to it while in a fully charged state, depending on the model, it will run for from 45 days to 5 years.

How can the Eco-Drive watch be recharged?
Besides sunlight, it can be safely charged by exposing it to a fluorescent desk lamp, with the dial (face) up and within about 8 inches or an incandescent lamp (regular light bulb) no closer than 20 inches. Never use a halogen lamp since the heat generated by it can cause damage to your watch. The most efficient and the quickest is in direct bright sunlight (not windowsill) and never on the dashboard of a car.

Reputation of the mark



It is important. Learn more about the reputation of the manufacturer, ask questions of your peers already have a watch of this brand. Take time and browse the Internet in several watches Forum.
Many brands can boast of more than 100-year history, but not all of them worthwhile. Look at the older models in their websites and electronic auctions and compare them with new ones. Models cost you 5 years ago is still something? The older models are more expensive there than those of 1-2 years? These may be indications of a major change in the performance of the manufacturer.
Resale Value
This value is important, so try to understand it properly. Many buyers throw money for watches that do not deserve and is rapidly depreciating. However, there are watches, whose value is retained longer.
What sets the price at which to sell your watch?
There is no magic formula by which to calculate it. The best thing you can do is buy a clock for your pleasure, without devises plans for its value in years.
Expensive or inexpensive clock
Forever the prestige and elegance goes hand in hand with an expensive watch. Nowadays, however, advanced technologies make it possible to obtain accurate wristwatch at a symbolic price or even free souvenir or promotional gift that you will find in the package ... chips. However, the watch has retained its function and a functional piece of jewelry. The truth is that the clock of over BGN 300 can be considered a jewel rather than a device for measuring time.
Some say that watches are a good investment. Others questioned the argument that many classic watches are sold at much higher price than at which they were purchased. Overall, however, clocks are rarely a good financial investment. When it is good only for people who are lucky and truly understand this.
One example. «Omega spiydmastar profeshanal", bought in 1969 for about $ 300, now sold in good condition for around 1000 dollars. At first glance, the watch has tripled its value over the years. However, whether really so? Based on consumer price index in the U.S., $ 300 in 1969 to meet 1410 U.S. dollars today. So if the clock is now worth 1000 dollars, this means that in practice you can regain about 70% of its value then.
In other words - most watches are depreciate investments, ie they will lose and will gain in value over time. However, if they keep well, their value will be high enough to allow the price to pay to be acceptable.
The large round dial is black with white and luminous indexes, two luminous hands, and a red arrow-tipped seconds hand.

Репутация на марката
Тя е важна. Научете нещо повече за репутацията на производителя, задайте въпроси на ваши познати, които вече притежават часовник от тази марка. Отделете време и сърфирайте в интернет из няколко форума за часовници.
Немалко марки могат да се похвалят с над 100-годишна история, но не всяка от тях си заслужава. Погледнете по-старите им модели в електронните сайтове и аукциони и ги сравнете с новите. Струват ли моделите отпреди 5 години все още нещо? По-старите модели по-скъпи ли са от тези, които са на 1-2 години? Това може да са индикации за голяма промяна в качеството на работа на производителя.
Стойност при препродажба
Тази стойност е важна, затова опитайте се да я разберете правилно. Много купувачи хвърлят пари за часовници, които не си заслужават и бързо се обезценяват. Има обаче и часовници, чиято стойност се запазва по-дълго време.
Какво определя цената, на която може да продадете вашия часовник?
Няма магическа формула, по която да се изчисли това. Най-доброто, което можете да направите, е да купите часовник, за да ви доставя удоволствие, без да кроите планове за стойността му след години.
Скъп или евтин часовник
Открай време престижът и елегантността вървят ръка за ръка със скъпия часовник. В наши дни обаче напредналите технологии дават възможност да се сдобиете с акуратен ръчен часовник на символична цена или дори като безплатен сувенир или промоционален подарък, който ще намерите в… пакетчето чипс. Въпреки това часовникът е съхранил функцията си и на едно функционално бижу. Истината е, че часовник на стойност над 300 лв. може да се смята по-скоро за бижу, отколкото за уред за измерване на времето.
Някои казват, че часовниците на са добра инвестиция. Други оспорват с тезата, че много класически часовници се продават на доста по-висока цена от тази, на която са закупени. Като цяло обаче часовниците рядко са добра финансова инвестиция. При това тя е добра само за хора, които имат късмет и настина разбират от това.
Един пример. «Омега спийдмастър профешънъл», купен през 1969 г. за около 300 долара, днес се продава в добро състояние за около 1000 долара. На пръв поглед часовникът е утроил стойността си през годините. Дали обаче наистина е така? Базирани на потребителския ценови индекс в Щатите, 300 долара през 1969 г. отговарят на 1410 долара днес. Така че ако часовникът струва днес 1000 долара, това означава, че на практика вие можете да си възвърнете около 70 % от тогавашната му стойност.
С други думи - повечето часовници са обезценяващи се инвестиции, т.е. те ще изгубят, а няма да спечелят от стойността си с времето. И все пак, ако ги поддържате добре, стойността им ще е достатъчно висока, за да може цената, която ще платите, да се окаже приемлива.

What are the functions of the clock

We are interested in so far as we know exactly what to buy the clock. Besides the main function, which consists of measuring the time, most watches offer various extras. A chronograph stopwatch. The clock can be fitted with an alarm, the time may be measured in two different time zones to show the various phases of the moon, etc. So before you buy, consider what you should watch and what price you could get it .
Stability and reliability
Reliability is a key factor for a clock. As a sports watch should be waterproof. The standard is the watch can withstand up to 50 meters, but most good watches are water resistant to several hundred meters. This clock must withstand high altitudes and is resistant to extreme temperatures.
Warranty on the clock
Each manufacturer offers a guarantee of their products. Guarantee is usually about a year. There are, however, companies that offer security for several years. When you buy a watch, make sure you receive it in its original packaging together with all information materials. Review the documents and security. Necessarily ask for service and support. This is very important. THIS IS A GREAT WATCH!

Какви са функциите на часовника
Интересуват ни дотолкова, доколкото знаем точно за какво купуваме часовника. Освен основната функция, която се изразява в измерване на времето, повечето часовници предлагат различни екстри. Хронографите имат секундомер. Часовникът може да е снабден с аларма, може да измерва времето в две различни часови зони, да показва различните фази на луната и т. н. Затова преди да купите, преценете за какво точно ви трябва часовникът и на каква цена бихте могли да го получите.
Стабилност и надеждност
Надежността е основен фактор за един часовник. Един спортен часовник например трябва да бъде водонепроницаем. Стандартът е часовникът да може да издържа до 50 метра, но повечето добри часовници са резистентни на вода до няколкостотин метра. Такъв часовник трябва да издържа на големи височини, да е устойчив и при екстремни температури.
Гаранция на часовника
Всеки производител предлага някакъв гаранционен срок на продукцията си. Обикновено гаранцията е около година. Има компании обаче, които предлагат гаранция за няколко години. Когато купувате часовника, уверете се, че го получавате в оригиналната му опаковка, заедно с всички информационни материали. Прегледайте и документите за гаранцията. Попитайте непременно за сервиз и поддръжка. Това е много важно.

What is the metal



A beautiful watches are made of steel, 14 - or 18-carat gold, of platinum or in some combination of these materials. Each metal has specific characteristics. As gold is softer than steel and could be scratched easily. However, it is most often chosen material for the impact that creates. Platinum is also frequently used material from prestigious brands, as it is hard and rarest of all ferrous metals. Stainless steel and titanium are resistant metals which are used for making sports watches them and hand chains.
What is the price
Must be in our pockets, of course. It is good to know that the price always depends on the materials used in the hull, and the chain dial. Often 50 to 75% of the clock is determined by its mechanism. In watches with extra features, the number of parts used to make the mechanism can reach 600. A vast quantity of labor input for the assembly of the mechanism of so many small particles determines the final price of the clock.
Development of the Timepiece Business

Какъв е металът
По-хубавите часовници се изработват от стомана, 14- или 18-каратово злато, от платина или пък в комбинация от някои от изброените материали. Всеки метал носи специфични характеристики. Златото например е по-меко от стоманата и би могло да се надраска по-лесно. Въпреки това е най-често избиран материал заради ефекта, който създава. Платината също е често използван материал от престижни марки, тъй като е най твърдият и най-редкият от всички цветни метали. Неръждаемата стомана и титаният са издържливи метали, които се ползват за направата на спортни часовници и ръчните им верижки.
Каква е цената
Трябва да е по джоба ни, естествено. Добре е да знаем, че цената невинаги зависи от материалите, използвани за корпуса, верижката и циферблата. Често 50 до 75 % от цената на часовника се определя от неговия механизъм. При часовници с допълнителни функции броят на частите, които се използват за направата на механизма, може да достигне до 600. Огромното количество труд, вложено за сглобяването на механизма от толкова много малки частици, има определящо значение за крайната цена на часовника.
