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
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    To 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.

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.

    People 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, 2024
    The 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.
