How many watches do you own? One? Two?. Many people disregard activities and occasion when they wear a watch and continue to wear the same watch, day after day, without thinking about how the watch fits with their attire. You need to seriously consider occasion and clothing in order to look good with a watch.

It's true. Gone are the days when one watch could be worn with everything. If you want to maintain a stylish appearance, you have to know what watches work, and which don't. Below are some helpful hints. Find out what watches are appropriate and how they can go well with clothing choices.

The Watch for Every Time

Every woman has their favourite pair of earrings, and every man has a pair of cufflinks that makes him feel invincible. A go to watch is a must for both men and women for every day use. This watch should match your personality and your occupation. Office goers will look great in a simple, yet stylish Casio Edifice. However, if you are a landscaper and spend most of your time outside in the dirt, a Casio G-shock will be a better option because it can stand up to any activity. Keep the following in mind:

Match metal with metal- Gold doesn't go with silver - so don't team them up. This just doesn't work. It will only encourage a sloppy look and make you appear unprofessional. Matching the right metal is essential to make your attire work.

Colour Match- A bright pink Baby G watch from Casio might leave you smiling all day long, but wearing it while you are wearing clashing colours just won't do. You should instead match the band of your watch with your belt and shoes. You can be adventurous but never garish.

Don't Wear Outdoor Watches Indoors

A nicely tailored suit won't go with an outdoor watch. Your big business meeting is not the time to sport your new Timex outdoor watch. Such watches can be sturdy and water resistant and designed for the outdoors. Stick to a dress watch when working at the office. You can use the outdoor watch on the weekend of hiking.

Formal Always Means Elegant

Formal dress watches are a must have for both men and women. Wear a masculine and sophisticated watch for formal clothing. A timepiece like the Casio Edifice or the Timex Expedition can give you wrist and attire a classy and elegant feel and will match well with any type of formal attire. Wish to make a bit of a statement? Use contrasting colours like silver and black for the dress watch and make sure the watch has classic lines. Intricately designed Casio or Timex dress watches would be ideal for women.

Watches should be chosen to ensure they fit with your activity as well as attire. These tips will make sure that you can find the right watch for the occasion.
