What Kind of Timepiece Should I Buy?
I love watches and love buying watches even more. Whenever I buy a watch I always find myself struggling to decide which watch I should get. I have come up with a few guidelines I use to help me decide on the best watch for my needs.
o How am I going to use the watch or, what is the main purpose for my new watch? Do I need a dress watch, casual, sport, dive, or pilot watch? This is the most important step to narrowing down the vast selection of timepieces. It could be a problem if you want a watch to use for running and buy a dress watch with a leather band and no timer.
o Once you have decided what you need the watch for, it is important to figure out what you like. Continuing with the example above; if you want a running watch do you prefer digital or analog? Do you prefer stainless steel bands or rubber straps? Or, do you run at night and need a light?
o The next step is to decide your price range. There are brands of watches in every price range to fit every use and need. What I usually do is find a more expensive brand and then look at some of their less expensive models. That way I get a good and reliable watch. I also save a little money at the same time.
o I recommend going to a store and trying watches on and deciding which one you want. I like to put the watch on and get a sense of how it feels and fits on my wrist. Big watches are in style right now but sometimes they are too big for my wrist. While you are there you can check the prices.
o Then search online and check the prices for the watch you have chosen. Although you might have to wait for that great new watch, you will save some money by buying it on the on-line.
I have found that one watch will not meet all of my needs. I have several timepieces that serve different purposes. If you need one watch to serve more than one purpose, some compromises might need to be made.
