Men's Watches - History and Current Buying Trends

Time is important to all of us. We live our lives by the clock, literally. Time pieces have been around since the 1400's when mechanical spring powered clocks where first invented. Later around the 1600's, when the technology was miniaturized, pocket watches were invented and became highly fashionable. Not until the 20th century did our modern idea of a "watch" come in to play. Typically one thinks of a watch as a wrist watch, a time keeping device strapped to the arm by means of a band or chain. Though some men still wear pocket watches for their aesthetic charm, wrist watches have dominated the watch industry for nearly a hundred years.

Today there are two main types of watches for men, digital such as sport watches, and analog, typically fashion watches with physical hands and annotated faces. There are also two main types of watch mechanisms (for watches with physical hands), quartz crystal, and spring powered. Quartz crystal watches keeps extremely precise time by means of a tiny crystal and an electrical circuit which produced precisely measured movements. Spring powered watches on the other hand can become extremely inaccurate because they rely on a small coil spring to produce movement. This tiny spring can lose consistency as it is vulnerable to changes in weather and climate and can wear out with extensive use. Most analog watches today rely on quartz crystal because of their precise timing, though spring powered watch are still popular because of their craftsmanship and beauty.

There are a variety of watches on the market today, from high end designs such as Omega and Rolex to athletic brands such as Timex and Seiko. Watches often feature a variety of features, especially sport watches which can often include stopwatches, duel time zones or even GPS uplinks which allow the user to know exactly where they are on the planet. GPS has also become a popular feature in fashion watches which automatically updates the time via a satellite network. A variety of specialty watches are also available to the more adventurous wearer, such as dive watches made by Swiss Army and Citizen Watches. Virtually all watches today include some sort of date function, and many have extra playful features. Modern watch designs can range from the traditional conservative look we all know to neon colours, using modern materials such as plastics and even hemp bands. Watches come in such a variety of choices, colours and designs anyone can find a watch they really love.

Timex and Pulsar Watches Keep Time With America

The now famous advertising slogan it takes a licking and keeps on ticking has helped make the Timex brand world famous as a producer of reliable and stylish watches that are also very affordable. Made popular during the nineteen fifties and early nineteen sixties by television personality John Cameron Swayze, the innovative campaign took full advantage of television as an advertising medium adding impetus to the power of the demonstration.

Viewers were treated to a host of different scenarios which tested the capabilities of the Timex during what was often billed as a torture test. The watches were strapped onto the blades of outboard boat motors, dropped into the water from heights as far as sixteen hundred feet and shown on camera to still be running. The campaign was so successful that by the end of the nineteen fifties, Timex watches had become the most popular watch brand in the United States.

With sales over one billion watches since the watches were first introduced in nineteen fifty, no other watch manufacturer has matched the performance of Timex. The parent company of Timex was founded long before the first Timex was introduced, dating back to eighteen fifty four as the Waterbury Clock Company in Connecticut. The early watch market featured only pocket watches with wrist watches not becoming popular until the early nineteen hundreds.

Waterbury took advantage of the popularity of the wrist watch, introducing its first wrist watch models during World War One. Under a license granted by the Disney Company, Waterbury introduced the Mickey Mouse watch in nineteen thirty three which became an instant success and is prized by collectors even today.

The Timex watch brand has survived intense competition from other watch manufacturers and remains one of the most well known, most purchased watches on the market today.

Pulsar Watch History

Not from the Swiss but from an American manufacturer, the Pulsar helped to revolutionize how people felt about the humble wrist watch. Born out of the explosion microelectronics technology that occurred during the nineteen seventies, Pulsar quite literally changed the face of timekeeping.

Up until the nineteen seventies, the analog watch face dominated the design of wrist watches. Then in nineteen seventy two the Hamilton Watch Company introduced a watch that completely abandoned the traditional notions of the analog timepiece. Totally electronic and featuring digital time readout, the Pulsar was not immediately accepted by the public. The digital readout was made possible by the invention of the light emitting diode or LED.

A product of electronic miniaturization the LED can now be found in everything from automotive taillights and household appliances to spacecraft. The primary advantage of the LED is the ability to emit a relatively strong light stream while consuming far less power than any type of vacuum gas lighting.

The nineteen seventies were a time of great excitement and focus on the successful exploration of the moon and other space achievements. The name Pulsar was taken from an astrological term used to describe the intense bursts of radiation produced by collapsing neutron stars in deep space. Like a pulse of light, the face of the watch was visible in daylight conditions and consumers gradually warmed to the modern look of the Pulsar. Since the introduction of the first Pulsar, the look has shifted back to the more traditional analog face design combined with the reliability of an electronic quartz movement that has given the Pulsar a well-deserved reputation for accuracy.

Newer models of the Pulsar feature classic watch styling at a price that is very accessible to the average watch buyer, though the Pulsar has never comprised on accuracy and reliability.
