Unless It's A Fashion Piece, Time Is Running Out For Wrist Watches
Wrist watch sales and wrist watch repairs are down. Ironically, the wrist watch did away with the pocket watch because it was easily accessible, you could wear it while you worked and it was plain handy. Now, people dig into their pockets and purses to fish out their cell phones, PDA’s or lug out their laptop to find out what time it is. No one is sporting a shiny gold watch or a calculator watch- of course not, your cell phone has a calculator, an alarm clock, can play music and take pictures! Most watches that are on the market cannot perform these functions. Unless it is a personalized watch or a watch with a personalized name , a personalized picture watch or fashionable name brand, people are reaching for their phones to see what time it is and not turning over their wrists.
Chefs still use wrist watches that they buckle onto their chef coats, wrist watches are necessary for people on the job where cell phones cannot be used or a laptop is not used. You can’t imagine a nurse digging into her pocket to fetch their cell phone to watch the minutes while checking blood pressure!
There are several ways to find a personalized watch for the perfect gift that will have your special someone asking people to ask you for the time and save them the search. Personalized watches give the naked wrist of today a bit of flare! Plus, your coach, teacher, grandmother, kids or in-laws will appreciate all the thought you put into ordering a watch with a personalized name or images that truly reflect them. A nurse watch , a teacher watch , a ballet watch , angel watch or mom watch are just small examples of professions and personalities that require wrist watches instead of reaching for a cell phone to tell time. Where is a ballerina going to put a cell phone? Teachers are not allowed to have cell phones in the classroom, and mom’s need to tell time at any place or time! Giving her the option of looking at her wrist instead of deep inside her handbag shows your consideration.
Another idea is a watch with a personalized name. Think how your grandma will gloat to all of her girlfriend when she gets her grandma watch!? Or your children- it is a special thing to see your name on something that is obviously yours, your children will take pride in wearing a watch that was created just for them!
Reconsider the wrist watch for gifts- instead of turning the page on wrist watches for your special someone’s- celebrate it! Be the first in your neighborhood to bring back wrist watch fashion!
