Choosing White Watches for Men
- Look for chrome or silver
When choosing white watches for men, look for something with a plain, simple face with chrome, steel or silver texture.
- Keep the straps plain
Polyurethane, silicon, stainless steel and leather straps are ok to use, just make sure that the straps are plain with no rugged edges, as these straps (similar to G-Shock and some Casio wrist watches) are commonly used on outdoor activities such as mountain climbing or wakeboarding.
- Not too bulky
For a classic look, keep it simple when it comes to white wrist for men. Avoid watches that are overly bulky with lots of complicated buttons. You might think it may be cool to have a wrist watch that shows the phases of the moon but please, leave it hidden in your drawer and just purchase a white watch that actually does what it needs to do – tell time.
- No to digital watches!
Digital watches look fine on 9 year olds. But men wear wrist watches with analog faces. Wearing bulky, digital watches give the impression that you like attending comic book conventions and play computer games all day long.
- A word on leather
Some wrist watches use fake leather straps. With constant use, these fake leather straps would crack and peel. If you are using a white watch, the cracks on white leather straps would appear more obvious than darker colored ones. White patches from the fake leather can even stick to your skin after removing your watch. Stick to genuine leather, stainless steel or classic plastic straps.
