Watch Culture And Wearing Etiquette

The culture of watches:

Tide and present situation: in modern society, life is no longer a luxury.

With the increasing popularity of the phenomenon of "one person and many watches", people's pursuit of watches is no longer satisfied with the single timing function. Instead, they hope to expand the scope of the watch function and increase the artistic taste of watches by changing the shape of the watchcase and the form form of dial design, making it a new trendy ornament that can embody individuality and embody identity.

Before the metal clock, the hourglass and the water clock were used for measuring time.

The sun rose, and the shadow of the long pole fell to the West. With the movement of the sun toward the zenith, the shadow slowly shortened and revolved around the pole. At noon, the sun reached its top and the shadow was the shortest (most of the summer solstice had no shadow). After noon, Tai Yang was on the west side of the pole, and the shadow of the pole fell to the East and gradually grew longer.

The shadow of the pole is moving all the time, and it revolves around the upright point to form a right direction.

The reason for the dextral rotation is that the ancient days of the northern hemisphere were carried out by vertical poles, because the sun was biased towards the south in the whole year.

If ancient times were measured in the southern hemisphere, the rotation of the shadow would be opposite to that observed in the northern hemisphere, and its shadow would be left.

When people want to make mechanical watches, they have become accustomed to the ancient people who measured the flying time in the right direction. Naturally, we chose the pointer rotation method, that is, the right-handed way.

Early watches are very expensive. Apart from timing, they are mainly used to flaunt their status.

Now with the continuous improvement of our living standard and the acceleration of technological development, watches have become popular and quickly become a fashion focus or symbol of success.

Watch selection

If you wear a watch correctly, you must first understand the watch and are good at choosing watches.

To choose watches, we should pay attention to five aspects, such as type, shape, color, pattern and function.

Types of watches

According to the standards, watches can be divided into many different categories.

In social situations, people usually distinguish their kind according to price.

According to this standard, watches can be divided into four categories: luxury watches, high-grade watches, mid-range watches and low-grade watches.

At the time of price, the price of the luxury table is above 10000 yuan, the top grade table is between 2000~10000 yuan, the mid-range table is between 500~2000 yuan and the low-grade table is below 500 yuan.

When choosing the specific type of the watch, first of all, do not work hard.

In addition, we should also take into account a series of related factors such as personal occupation, appearance occasions, objects of interaction and other clothes selected at the same time.

Function of watch

Timekeeping is the most important function of watches.

Therefore, the watches used in formal occasions, whether pointer, jump or time, should have this function, and should be precise to time, minute, accurate to seconds is better.

Watches that are accurate to the time are obviously not up to the requirements.

Some additional functions, such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, direction, blood pressure, pace and so on, are all available, and do nothing good.

In short, watches should be functional and valuable.

Watch shape

The shape of a watch is often related to its price and grade.

Watches worn on formal occasions should be dignified and conservative in modeling and avoid strange and fashionable.

Men, especially the respectable and elders, should pay more attention.

New and fancy watches are only suitable for girls and children.

Generally speaking, round, oval, square, rectangular and rhombic watches, because of its solemn, conservative, wide range of applications, especially suitable for formal occasions to wear.

Watch pattern

In addition to numbers, trademarks, factory names and brands, there is no need for any other patterns on the watch.

It is especially important to keep this in mind when choosing a watch for formal occasions.

If the design of the watch is weird and varied, it will not only be bad for use, but may also make people laugh.

Color of watches

The choice of watches to be worn on formal occasions should be in the light of clutter. Generally, it is advisable to choose monochromatic watches or bicolor watches instead of watches with three colors or three colors.

Whether it is a monochromatic watch or a two color watch, its color should be clear, noble and elegant.

Gold watch, silver watch, black watch, that is, dial, watchcase, strap are gold, silver, black watches, is the most ideal choice.

Watches with gold watchcase, watchband and milky white dial can also withstand the test of time, and will not wear behind in any age.

In more formal communication occasions, adults should not wear the following watches that are not in line with etiquette.

1 failure table

The failure table is an inaccurate timepiece or a timeless watch.

Wearing this kind of watch can not only make a lot of trouble, but also give people a sense of time.

2 inferior quality list

Poor quality watches, namely rough steel and plastic, are of poor texture and poor workmanship.

Such watches are usually worn on weekdays, but do not wear them on formal occasions. This "careless chess" is likely to ruin the overall effect of clothing.

It is not always necessary to wear a brand name watch, but if you can do it, you should choose a watch that is slightly better than your workmanship, so as to ensure that you have every minute and every minute when you need it.

3 Huai table

Huai table is also called pocket watch, pocket watch and linked list.

This is a very classic romantic style watch, but "the old tune is self love, but it doesn't play much."

Using the Huai table today, although it means nostalgia, it is out of date with the "seize the day" and is also difficult to match with the clothes worn everyday.

Advertising is a kind of paid publicity.

Advertisements, which are used as advertising watches, can be seen as being advertised on official occasions, not only by advertising, but also by love.

It is a fashion watch, which can be used in combination with fashion and casual clothes. It is popular with girls and children, but it can not be matched with formal clothes. It is not suitable for wearing on solemn and serious occasions, especially for adult men.

6 World Table
