Frequently Asked Questions
What's an appropriate size for a first dress watch?
Most beginners do well with 38-40mm cases, which work on various wrist sizes and don't appear oversized under dress shirt cuffs. If you have smaller wrists (under 6.5 inches), consider 36-38mm options.
Should I choose quartz or mechanical for my first dress watch?
Quartz movements require less maintenance and keep better time, making them practical for daily wear. Choose mechanical if you're drawn to traditional watchmaking and don't mind occasional winding and less precise timekeeping.
How much should I expect to spend on a quality entry-level dress watch?
Entry-level dress watches with decent build quality typically start around $100-200 for quartz models and $200-400 for basic mechanical movements. This range offers reliable timekeeping and appropriate materials without premium brand markups.
Can I wear a dress watch every day?
Yes, dress watches are designed for regular wear, though they're not intended for sports or rough activities. A well-chosen dress watch can transition from professional settings to casual wear, making it suitable for daily use.
