How Do You Wear Your Watch? Esquire Magazine Offers Amusing Wearing Style Explanations

I do admit to scrutinizing the way people wear their watches. I don’t always understand people that wear watches too loose. My immediate thought is, “don’t they know they can get it sized?” Perhaps people like the loose bracelet feel. You don’t often see people who wear watches fitted with a strap wearing them loose.

When art and watch presentation intersect, it is easy to go overboard with too much. This is why I am happy to see the AXIS/XXVII Time Spiral - Ref. 6270 from Angular Momentum.

French designed Bell & Ross watches just don’t cease to impress me. This company is on a roll! I cannot wait to see where there will be in a few years. Even before they become popular with the release of the BR-01 line of watches, I was a fan. Talk about being ahead of the [...]
