A watch is one of the few accessories that is both useful and beautiful. The right one finishes an outfit, starts a conversation and can last you for years. But with so many styles around, how do you choose? Here is a simple guide.
1. Start with the size of your wrist
If you have a slim wrist, a small or medium dial looks delicate and elegant. A larger dial gives a bold, statement look and suits those who like to stand out. When in doubt, try the watch on and check that it sits comfortably without sliding around.
2. Pick a dial style that matches your day
Minimal dials are clean and classy. They go with office wear and everyday outfits. Crystal or embellished dials add sparkle for weddings, parties and Eid. Bracelet-style watches work like a piece of jewellery and a watch in one.
3. Choose your colour: gold, silver or rose
Gold tones look warm and rich, especially on medium and deeper skin tones, and they pair well with traditional outfits. Silver tones feel cool and modern. Pick the shade that matches the jewellery you wear most often, so everything goes together easily.
4. Stack your watch with bangles
One of the most popular looks right now is a watch worn with a few slim bangles. Keep it balanced: if your watch is detailed, choose simple bangles, and if your watch is plain, you can wear more bangles. Place the watch on one wrist and a bracelet on the other for an even look.
5. Think about gifting
A watch makes a thoughtful present for birthdays, anniversaries, Eid and weddings. It is something the person will see and use every day. At Altin Noor, our watches arrive in their own box, so they are ready to give.
6. Look after your watch
Keep it away from perfume, lotions and harsh chemicals. Wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth after wearing. Store it in its box when you are not wearing it.
