# 3 WATCH STYLES FOR THE PROFESSIONAL MAN

## 3 WATCH STYLES FOR THE PROFESSIONAL MAN

[Watches](https://blog.gerardmccabe.com.au/jewellery-box/tag/watches) Posted by [Gerard McCabe](https://blog.gerardmccabe.com.au/jewellery-box/author/gerard-mccabe) on 08/11/2016

When it comes to important everyday items, the watch is high up on the list. A fashion statement as well as a practical essential, they can be the finishing touch on any look. From dress to casual, a good watch can be incredibly versatile. But when you’re in the market for a new watch, how do you know what to look for? What style should you go for?

---

> At Gerard McCabe, we have been producing our watches for many years. And, as Adelaide jewellers, we know that finding the perfect watch can be easier said than done.

There are a number of important considerations to think about when buying a watch. Firstly, you have to think of it’s practicality. Do you need a watch that is water-resistant? Do you travel a lot and need a watch with a dual time zone? You need to ask yourself these questions to ensure that the watch you purchase is the best fit for your needs. After you have given thought to the practical applications, it’s time to think about style. Is this watch going to be one for special occasions, everyday wear or does it need to be able to cater to both? Do you favour bright-coloured shirts or more neutral tones.

> If you’re not sure what style of watch you should go for, here are a few examples of mens water resistant, dual-time, dress watches that can help guide you on your watch-selection journey. 

##### The Manhattan MEN'S WATER RESISTANT WATCH

##### The Regent MEN'S DRESS WATCH

This masterful creation combines stainless steel and rose gold plates, incorporating open windows around the face to emphasise the design.

> This design comes with the option to have a silver or black face on the watch, so you can pick out a style that will best suit your wardrobe.
