The pocket watch was first developed in the 16th century. This went hand-in-hand with the first ever development of spring devices. Immediately, as one could assume, these became a large fashion trend for men . One aspect many may not realize is that these watches were first worn around the neck, much like a pendant. While today Flavor Flav may wear a clock around his neck, you won’t see much of that style elsewhere.
The trend in fashion originated in England, much accredited to Charles II in 1675.
One can find a fine selection of pocket watches by browsing our online store. For example, take a look at this beautiful piece by Longines Watches. The Longines 18k Gold Mens Pocket Watch is simple, elegant, and well made.
