For most of us, watches are a tool. Specifically, watches are a tool
that tell us when its five minutes to happy hour, when its five minutes to
the end of happy hour and how long weve been in jail after violently insisting
that happy hour continue. But for many men, watches are regarded as the No.1
male accessory because they encapsulate coveted masculine attributes: namely
style, engineering and status.
And because this thinking-mans accessory shows no sign of being supplanted
by something less intricate -- like sweatbands -- a solid background in watches
is a necessity for any chap looking to elevate his profile.
Thankfully, Ive taken the time (pun unavoidable) to compose a primer of
everything a men's watch
novice needs to know in order to stay afloat in the sometimes cutthroat world
of watch aficionados. So read on and make sure that you never get stuck
trying to convince anyone that your calculator watch is a personal GPS.
