Finding the Right Wrist-watches for You
Antique, vintage and luxury wristwatches have captured the hearts and minds of all manner of watch collectors as well as the watchmakers themselves — it's time you found your own.
Certain vintage watches for men and iconic watch designs for women are sought after not only because of their graceful proportions or innovative materials but also because of the illustrious histories of the houses that created them, histories that they stylishly embody.
Bulgari’s legendary Serpenti watch was on everyone’s list after the collection’s bold bracelet, which technically debuted after the timepiece, graced the wrist of actress Elizabeth Taylor. If anything, elaborately crafted timepieces — the unmistakably boxy silhouette of Cartier Tank watches, the elegant and minimal Calatrava designed by legendary Swiss house Patek Philippe — are even more effective than the shape we associate with traditional wristwatches.
Form watches — the all-encompassing moniker bestowed upon non-round watches — are making headlines and completing contemporary fashionable ensembles the world over. At the same time, both casual fans and careful collectors are drawn to the unbeatable charm of vintage styles, such as the icons designed by Omega that even James Bond can’t resist.
In the early days of watchmaking, watches were fragile enough that they necessitated protection from the elements. Now, wristwatches made of gold and steel can withstand the harshest climates — even 100 meters underwater, in the case of Rolex’s Submariner. Designer Gérald Genta, whose range of clients included Rolex, created for Audemars Piguet the first luxury sports timepiece to be made from stainless steel. First introduced in 1972, the Royal Oak was a perfect choice for blending the form and function that are now synonymous with sports watches.
Are you shopping for a wristwatch? It’s good to keep your needs as well as your specific personal style in mind: A smaller, subtle timepiece is a good fit for small wrists. When will you be wearing your new accessory? There’s a versatile model out there for everyday wear, while a rugged, feature-heavy watch is a safe bet if you’re prone to embarking on all-weather activities in the great outdoors.
Find antique, vintage and luxury wristwatches for sale on 1stDibs.
Questions About Used Wrist Watch
- How do I use a doctor s watch?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022To use a doctor's watch, use the large dial to track the time. The smaller dial is for measuring a patient's pulse. If you would like to try it, find the pulse point and wait for the second hand to reach the 12 o'clock position. Then, count the number of beats you hear until the second hand returns to that point. You'll find a selection of doctor's watches on 1stDibs.
- What is a watch fob used for?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021A watch fob is a pocket watch chain. It is used to make the pocket watch more accessible, giving the user something to grab on to when pulling a pocket watch out of a vest or pants pocket. The classic way to wear a pocket watch is at the end of a fob in the waistcoat pocket. Shop a range of antique and designer watch fobs on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023There isn't one specific brand or model of watch that the military uses. Generally, members of the military wear watches that are durable, waterproof, shockproof and accurate in the field. Shop a variety of watches on 1stDibs.
- Are diamonds used in watches?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertDecember 5, 2024Yes, diamonds are used in watches. Many watches contain bearings crafted out of lab-made jewels, which minimize friction and support more accurate timekeeping. In some cases, makers use lab-made diamonds for these features. Watchmakers may also set decorative diamonds into the bezel or bracelet to enhance the visual appeal of their timepieces. Some makers well-known for their diamond watches include Graff, Chopard, Jacob Co., Piaget, Hublot, Cartier and Bulgari. Shop a collection of diamond watches on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022To use a pocket watch chain, first attach one end to the fob of your watch. Then, tuck the watch into the watch pocket of your jacket. Thread the free end of the chain through your jacket buttonhole. On 1stDibs, shop a wide variety of pocket watches.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Bremont recently unveiled its new movement, the ENG300. The movement is a 65-hour automatic with a silicon escapement manufactured at Bremont’s watchmaking factory ‘The Wing’. You can shop a collection of authentic Bremont watches from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- Do Hermès watches use batteries?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023Yes, Hermès watches use batteries. The batteries power the quartz mechanism that allows the timepieces to precisely track the hours. In most cases, Hermès boutiques will change the batteries in Hermès timepieces for free, but you may need an appointment for this service. Contact the boutique you intend to visit for more information. Find an assortment of Hermès watches on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertDecember 17, 2024Michele watches use a wide range of movements. For some of its high-end watches, the brand produces the movements at its Swiss atelier, while others feature movements crafted by other Swiss makers. Michele has incorporated specific movements into its timepieces, including the ETA 2824-2, the Sellita SW200 and the Ronda 515. On 1stDibs, find a collection of Michele watches.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Patek Philippe quartz watches are battery powered, but automatic and manual winding ones are not. The batteries on quartz watches usually last for a few years before needing to be replaced. Shop iconic vintage and contemporary Patek Philippe timepieces on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 22, 2024The number one watch brand in the U.S. varies over time. However, experts state that Apple Watch has the most widespread recognition in the U.S., followed by Rolex. Other watchmakers that enjoy a high degree of name notoriety in the country include Breitling, Bulova, Cartier, Chanel, Gucci, IWC, Longines, Seiko, TAG Heuer, Tiffany Co., Timex and Vacheron Constantin. Find a large collection of watches on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertDecember 5, 2024People never stopped using pocket watches entirely. In fact, many luxury watchmakers continue to release new pocket watches. Some notable contemporary models include the Patek Philippe Grand Complications Pocket Watch, the Vacheron Constantin Traditionnelle Pocket Watch, the A. Lange Söhne 1815 Pocket Watch, the Breguet Classique Pocket Watch and the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Grande Tradition Pocket Watch. As to when wristwatches became more popular than pocket watches for daily wear, the shift happened in the years following World War I. Although the first wristwatches date back to the 19th century, it wasn't until soldiers who had worn wristwatches in the field returned home that demand for the timepieces really grew. Many watchmakers had developed new designs and technologies to contribute to the war effort, adding to the increased popularity of wristwatches during the 1920s and ’30s. On 1stDibs, shop a large selection of pocket watches.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 22, 2024The quality of the diamonds used in Gucci jewelry and watches varies. However, the luxury maker has a reputation for being selective about its materials. As a result, most diamonds utilized by Gucci carry clarity ratings of VVS to VS clarity and color ratings of F or G. Gemologists working for the luxury fashion house individually select each stone from supplies provided through conflict-free mining activities. Find a range of Gucci jewelry and watches on 1stDibs.
