Italian Watches

By John P Stevens

Switzerland is considered as the best when it comes to watch making, they have been doing it for a long time now, and are rightly regarded as the pioneers in the field. Some of the other countries are now also beginning to show their colors. Japan started by producing watches that were not of the top quality, but cheap, and they did make a break through with the customers, even though these watches were not that good looking, but the prices were low. The Italians are also joining the party and giving the Swiss something to think.

It is not that the Italians started making watches recently, they have been at it for centuries, but their brands never became more popular, as all they did was copy the Swiss designs instead of making something using their own ideas. However, now this has changed and the demand for Italian watches is increasing. Some buyers even prefer the Italian styles more now as compared to the Swiss watches. They find them far more fashionable, and stylish with their innovative designs.

Following is a classification of Italian watches as per their design.

Wristwatches Wristwatches are the most in- demand Italian watches. Most of the mainstream Italian watches are designed with a studded interface patterned with beautiful crystals, or pearls depending on the price. The dial is normally round and has only two hands; the minute and the hour hand. Some of the newer designs also have the hand for seconds, but most of the customers prefer the old style. Italian wristwatches are designed simple, and avoid ostentatious look, they are simple and yet graceful.

Wrist watches are the most sold Italian watches. One of the most common designs they use is a studded interface covered with either crystals or pearls. The main dial is usually round, and has the minute and the hour hand. The newer models have started including the hand for seconds as well, but the old design is more in demand. These watches usually have simple designs and do not feature pretentious outlook. The idea is to keep it simple and classy.

Women wrist watches have different styles from men watches; naturally, they are more delicate, and studded with more diamonds and pearls. Some also have rubies, topaz, and other precious stones that are used intelligently to create beautiful designs. The watch making process generally involves a massive handwork, as machines cannot make such complex designs.
