The need
You must thoroughly analyze what you need the watch for. Answer questions like: Do I need the watch for regular use? Do I want it for a special activity? Do I want one for special occasions? Where and when will I use it? Etc.
This is the first factor that would determine your choice of watch.
The purpose
The purpose of the watch is of utmost importance. You might be surprised by this advice, but the fact is, people these days don't just buy a watch to keep track of the time.
They wear it as an accessory and a beauty. For them, time is only one aspect, but more importance is placed on whether the watch will complement their outfit or appearance.
The characteristics
So what are the definitive features you are looking for in the watch? Is it a great design? Do you want a luminous or simple sphere? Do you want a watch that shows the date and time? Do you want it to display specialized features like height, depth, etc.?
All watches have certain key characteristics, which are common to all watches. However, if you want some unique features, you can go for those that have a certain flair and have a range of classic, romantic, or futuristic features.
Watch face
It is the watch face, which is the deciding factor, when you buy a watch. The watch face must be such that its size is consistent with the size of the wrist of the person who is going to wear it.
For example, if your hand has a large wrist and you select a watch with a small dial, it will look ungainly and extremely inelegant.
The safest bet for men is a large watch face, while for women it is a small watch face.
The straps
Many times, people do not give too much importance to the watch strap. However, it might be a good idea to think about the strap. Some straps do not match the watch or may not complement the overall skin tone and color. They seem out of place.
The best bet has always been a steep stainless steel strap. It is durable and looks good. Another option is a leather strap; however, it is not suitable for all occasions.
The price
Watches come in a wide dynamic range of prices. They can adapt to the limitations of each and every one of the pockets. Exclusive watches are expensive and are highly valued snobby.
It is advisable not to exaggerate when buying a watch and you should spend well within your means. Some watches have a good resale value. Make a bee line for these watches, as even if you want to change them after a couple of years, you can still sell them at a fair price.
Waterproof
Almost all watches, these days, are waterproof. This is really an important consideration, as there will be numerous instances where your watch comes into contact with water.
Be sure to ask the supplier about the degree of water resistance. For many watchmakers, the term "water resistant" means different things.
You won't go wrong if you consider the above tips when buying a watch. One caveat here: stay away from impulsive purchases while shopping for a watch.
