How to Choose the Perfect Watch

 

With so many different varieties of watches, choosing one that suits your needs and lifestyle can be a difficult task. Just like deciding on your next car or hairstyle, purchasing a timepiece is a very personal decision. But there are some key factors that come into play when choosing:

Ask Yourself Why: This may seem obvious, but determining why you want a watch is a sure-fire way to help you narrow down your choices. Do you need something dressy to wear to work? Looking to add another vintage watch to your ever growing collection? Or are you in need of a water friendly timepiece in time for this summer's boating season? Asking yourself questions like these will help steer you in the direction of appropriate places to begin your research, or sellers that have what you’re looking for.

Price: While it would be nice to say that money is no object, that’s not necessarily true for all of us. Setting a budget in your mind will keep you on track while searching for watch options. Watches can appreciate and depreciate in value over time, so it’s important to buy something that will allow you to get the most value for your money.  

Where To Buy: The list of watch vendors, dealers, and retailers is vast, so make sure you buy your watch from a trusted, reputable source. Offering repair services, honoring warranties and providing hassle-free customer service are all reasons to feel confident in your decision to do business with a seller.
