Just how Many Watch Series Do You Think There Are?
I recently started an internet company selling watch collection, and while researching my market, I was overwhelmed in the huge selection of styles and brands available.
You may select any kind of watchseries to find the various styled watches, color of watch faces, color of watch rings, Stainless steel watches, gold plated watches even wood watches are available. When you enter the expensive selection of watches you discover a whole new assortment of watches with diamonds, solid gold watches, titanium, and plenty of other precious metal watches and stone watches that are filled.
The watch moves vary as well from manual to completely electronic with some newer style watches with heart monitors, temperature, rate, and a great deal of analytical information available. Then you will find dive watches going down to 4000 Mtr, now that's a long way down but heavy sea divers need reliable watches which can handle the pressure at these depths so it's great to find a range of watch series which appeal to the individual as well as all the other divers who like the ocean or cave diving.
Glamorous watchseries compose a sizable area of the industry because everybody wants to look different from the woman next door. New watches come out there daily to keep watching or hunting for your favorite kind of watch, there is something out there to keep you happy when you look at all the watches available right now. I watched a watch another day which has belts going in various directions to tell the time I was really intrigued as to how it works, it would be a real talking point at a party or with your buddies.
Initially people could only tell time from sun dials that they placed over doorways of their homes or businesses, showing midday along with the four phases of the sun as it travels through the day, the other kinds of clocks for telling time were water clocks, not easy to transport when you had been on the transfer. From the 1500's with the invention of these springs, portable clocks and watches were created. One locksmith from Germany Peter Henlein created the"Nuremberg Eggs" that could be put on the table rather than being hung in the wall, they just had an hour as the minute hand wasn't introduced until much later and they lost time since the spring unwound however they were widely popular with the wealthy individuals as they were a truly portable timepiece.
With the debut of this humble spring the world of watch and clocks series took a giant leap to the forward. Men didn't wear wrist watches back in the 1800's they had been thought to be too feminine and only ladies wore them. Men needed an opinion on a chain that they kept in the pocket of their vest which was known as a fob pocket. Remember in the old movies, there would be someone standing in the train station taking his view on a gold chain from his fob pocket checking the moment, now the fob pockets are still around the vest of men's 3 piece suits. It was only when someone tied one of these watches into his wrist with a piece of string so he could retained track of time and keep working that he asked a watchmaker to create a watch he could wear on his wrist, two or three lugs were attached to the sides of the watchseries and a strap was placed on so that he could put on it.
It took quite a while for this to become popular as the first actual use was at the army and watches were worn by soldiers in order that they could synchronicity battle strategies, check time without fumbling with a pocket watch, Soldiers wore watches in the Boer War and in WW1. Following the Great War more men were wearing watches since they had done during the war and it became known as a tribute to those who'd served their countries on the battle fields so from now on women weren't the only ones sporting watches. By 1920 it was fashionable for men to wear a wristwatch and fresh designs were being made by a whole assortment of watchmakers, glass faces were substituted using plastics, different metals were used for the casing, minute palms were inserted and the rest is history.
When I was kid, watches weren't actually worn by children unless you're from the top class as most families could not afford to buy their children a watch, when out playing one day I remember asking my friend what the time was but neither of us had a watch so he pulled his sleeve up looked in his arm and said"A hair passed a freckle" and we burst out laughing, it reveals how far we've come over a short period of time. How many kids have a watch today?
The first watchseries I ever got was back in 1960. Two sailors we understood had just returned from Singapore and introduced back these watches for us as presents I do recall they did not last all that long since I did not understand how to cure or take care of it correctly, I likely over-wound it, breaking the main spring.
A few years later I was given another watch from a close friend of the family he had been an American Pilot and it was a gold Lovably which I have to this day although I do not wear it. Every time I see or think about it, I see the person who gave me it personally, sadly he passed away a brief time ago so he and his watch are always in my mind.
It's funny once you own your wristwatch on, it becomes part of you, and you do not give it another thought all day, you assess it quite frequently for the time doing this activity without even thinking about it. Then 1 day you depart from your watch off your wrist and all day long you worry about where you abandon it and it nags you until it is back on your wrist. A few minutes later I looked to check the time for my flight and no opinion. I had such a powerful feeling of loss if my opinion was missing for that brief time, it confirmed how much the watch meant to mepersonally.
A couple of months after I was not so lucky. I was on ferry travel from Italy to Greece, the exact same thing happened, washed my hands, left the watch about the container then went on deck, so I soon realized that I had left the watch in the restroom but this time once I got back it was gone. I reported it missing and had it broadcast across the boats speakers but the individual who took it did not return it and I felt naked without it on my wrist, There was a strong feeling of loss, I figure we all have feelings like this when something is removed from us something we treasure. So look after your Watches.
The further I look into Watch collection I discover that they certainly have come a long way from the sundials produced in 500AD into the century we live in now, visiting the Moon and beyond, people love devising new ideas and there are a lot more discoveries to be made on how exactly we calculate TIME and the humble watch will be traveling as fast as another discovery. Keep inventing.
