Pocketwatches - Making a Classy Comeback

In the early 1900's the wearing of a pocketwatch was far more common than the wearing of a wristwatch. Most gentlemen owned several pocketwatches and had a pocketwatch for every activity they indulged in from attending the opera to the foxhunt to going "courting".

In recent years, pocket watches have begun to make a comeback as part of a classic wardrobe look for men. In light of this, Seiko has redesigned and reissued their version of the classic pocketwatch that has all the quiet elegance of the traditional pocketwatch with some modern updates such as a quartz movement and a watch face that is easy to read with the Roman numeral markers in black. This watch also features gold tone seconds hand and black hands on the bold white watch face make this pocketwatch easy as read. Another feature added by Seiko that the pocketwatch wearer of yesterday didn't have: this watch is water resistant.

If you want a more traditional pocketwatch, the Wenger Company has their own version. Wenger watches are very well made and if you don't recognize the name, you'll recognize the product they are best known for, Wenger designed and makes the original Swiss Army Knife. This pocketwatch made by Wenger is a beautiful leather strap and will keep either standard or 24-hour time. This classically designed watch will go with any outfit and looks great peeking from a vest pocket on a suit or with casual attire. Like all Wenger products, this pocketwatch is built to last!
