Women's gold watches today carry more functions than simply indicating the time. Gold watches are an indicator of high social status, income level and, with the right choice, the good taste of their mistress. Despite the fact that gold is considered and is a soft metal, watches from it are one of the strongest and most durable, since only expensive watch movements can be found in them. Of course, such a purchase requires considerable financial investments, but the result is fully justified: a luxurious and elegant image, a combination of external lightness and internal strength.

With proper care and respect, such a purchase will please you for a very long time, moreover, such watches do not go out of fashion.

Types and Models

The use of the classical material - gold - does not imply the mandatory use of traditional technologies in the manufacture. Today, a variety of manufacturing methods are used, the types and models are diverse, and the choice depends on personal preferences.

The first difference is based on the type of walking - it can be quartz or mechanical. Quartz watches quickly gain their audience, since even the most inexpensive of them provide greater accuracy, and the battery in them is designed for several years of operation, and you do not have to worry about winding them regularly.

Mechanical watches are more expensive because they require great skill in manufacturing, but their accuracy is somewhat lower.

Electronic gold watch - an interesting combination of classic and modern. They have great functionality - LED backlight, stopwatch, alarm clock, calendar and other necessary things. And all this - in an elegant golden case.

In addition to the standard wearing of a watch on your hand, like a bracelet, you can also wear it as a pendant - and a gold watch is no exception. Such a pendant will also be able to say a lot about its owner and will add elegance and completeness to even a simple image.

Smart watches are an amazing technological invention of recent times. They work on the principle of synchronization with a smartphone and allow you to use many of its functions, up to sending messages and calls, without taking your mobile device out of your pocket. Other functions include a universal control panel, a smart alarm clock (taking into account the phases of sleep), a fitness tracker and many others.

Of course, the price of such watches will be high, especially if they are made in the gold version, but for some it can become an indispensable thing that makes life easier.

A more modest option is a watch with luminous numbers. They can be with either a digital or a standard display. Night illumination is convenient for evening walks - no need to shine on the dial. This addition is unobtrusive and nice.

In the wake of the intensified development of computer technology, many designers, and just people with taste agree that good gold watches do not need additional improvements - both with external decoration and relatively functionality. Conciseness and restraint - this is what distinguishes a girl with good taste and sense of style.

Strap Options

Having decided what functions are needed in gold wrist models, you can proceed to the selection of a suitable design. The main part of the appearance of the watch is a strap, and therefore you should stop choosing it.

There are not many options, and it will not be difficult to determine:

  • A watch with a gold bracelet made from a combination of weaves of thin threads or on a gold chain is an elegant accessory that attracts attention.

It is also possible to order the author’s design of the bracelet, which emphasizes individuality.

  • There are also partially gold models - in a gold case and with a leather strap. In combination with a gold bracelet, such a strap creates an interesting kit and an original combination. Such models are somewhat cheaper than full gold, but they also look elegant and are perfect for girls in high public or official positions, as well as for ordinary people, because such watches will be combined with any style of clothing.

Color, shape and decor

Having examined and chosen the type of strap, we will move on to color, shape and decor. Here, designers also offer a variety of solutions for different purposes, categories of people and styles, so that everyone selects a model that suits their personal preferences.

The color of the gold models depends (if they are completely gold) on the gold used. It can be either traditional yellow and white, or pink, and lately even blue and green.

If we talk about the color of watches with a leather strap, then, most often, the dial is made in yellow or white, and the leather strap is presented in assortment - black, brown, burgundy, blue, white and many others.

The dial models can be round, square, rectangular - these forms are familiar to everyone, and most of them are on the market. Sometimes, in new collections, there are dials of non-standard forms, but this is very rare, and such watches are not suitable for every case and not for every style.

It is believed that gold watches do not need additional decoration, as they are made of such material that adorns itself - this is a classic design. You can find models with diamonds, cubic zirconias and other precious stones, the main thing is that there are not too many of them - the amount does not go into the guarantee of taste.

Brands

In the collections of many watch manufacturers - Russian and foreign - much attention is paid to creating high-quality gold watches for women. Let's consider them in more detail.

Nika

There are several domestic companies offering decent products manufactured using modern technologies and at affordable prices. First of all, this is the Nika company, known since the Soviet times and has not changed its merits - interesting design, build quality and pricing policy. One of their most famous collections is DolceVita, the distinguishing features of which are ceramic inserts in the case, decoration with cubic zirconias and the use of different colors of gold.

Gull

Seagull is another Russian leader. This company is distinguished by the predominance of classic design (round or oval dials, leather or gold straps) and the use of rubies in the running gear, ensuring its durability.

Now this company is collaborating with Platinor.

Flight

The Polet factory is one of the oldest in Russia, but even now it is considered good luck to acquire models of this company - they are famous for their stylish design and quality. It was this plant that produced the so-called "navigational watches", one of which accompanied Yuri Gagarin during flight into space.

Nairi

Yerevan watch factory “Nairi” produced a variety of quality watches, but in 1991 production was stopped. Currently, it is partially restored, and the company specializes in the production of art watches.

Sokolov

Of the new watch companies, Sokolov should be noted. A large selection of high-quality models of all kinds of design and decent quality are all that a customer needs.

Rolex

Looking at foreign models, you can see that Swiss watches remain the leader there. Rolex is considered the best brand in Switzerland, its distinctive features are massiveness, a large dial and many stones on the strap and dial.

They are suitable for those who want not so much to watch the time as to point out their addiction to luxury and pomposity.

Tissot and Omega

Two other Swiss companies, a little less popular, but worthy of no less attention - Tissot and Omega. They are also representatives of Swiss quality, but their models are not so challenging in style and less expensive.

How to distinguish an original from a fake?

It is far from always possible to determine with absolute accuracy whether a gold watch was bought or not. But there are the most obvious signs that will expose the cue:

  1. Price - a copy is always much cheaper than the original.
  2. Lack of supporting documents and packaging.
  3. Crookedly placed lettering.
  4. Cheap, low-quality strap.
  5. Dusty dial and scratches or other defects on the glass.

Even if at first glance it seems that everything is in order, but there are slight doubts, do not hesitate to seek the advice of qualified specialists. They will determine the authenticity of the watch and save it from a bad purchase.

How to choose?

A gold watch is an expensive accessory, and in order to justify it, you need to know how to choose a quality watch and what to look for when choosing:

  • Identify the country of manufacture. It can be both Russia and Switzerland (the best watches are produced there). Pay attention to the markings of watches or their parts to understand how “Swiss” watches can be considered. Swiss or Swiss made means that the watch is fully manufactured and tested in Switzerland. Swiss Movement or Swiss Quize will indicate that the watch has a Swiss movement, and the Swiss part says that only parts for the movement are made there.

Depending on this, the price will differ.

  • The mechanism of work. Traditionally, gold watches are made with a mechanical mechanism, since when using quartz, it will sometimes be necessary to remove the cover in order to change the batteries, and this can lead to damage (gold is a soft metal).But if such a cover is made of steel, you can not be afraid of damage, and the price of watches will decrease.
  • Percentage of gold. The amount of gold in it greatly affects the price of a product. So, a gold watch with a leather strap will cost several times cheaper than completely precious.
  • Jewelry. A diamond pavement on the dial will add hours of brilliance, luxury and price.
  • Additional functions. The watch often has additional functions and options (for example, a calendar, a chronograph, several dials and others) - you need to be sure that all this is really useful. Limited and exclusive collections are also being produced, which, due to their uniqueness, are expensive.

If you need a watch for every day, then it is better to choose a simpler accessory.

How much are?

The price of a gold watch depends on several factors - the class of the product, the amount used in the manufacture of the precious metal, stones and brand. The cost varies widely - from five thousand to millions of rubles. The most inexpensive models are dominated by leather straps, extra jewelry and additional features are absent.

For the middle price category, 18 carat gold is often used - for example, in collections from Maurice Lacroix.

Top-quality watches are often made by hand, and they almost always have decorative elements that turn the watch into a real piece of jewelry. And the price of this work corresponds to the complexity of the work and the number of jewelry included in it.

Home Care

A gold watch is a rather fragile work, and improper care can lead to irreparable consequences to the point that they will become completely worthless.

However, this does not mean that each time they will have to be attributed to the master - it is enough to know a few rules of necessary care with which the watch will last a very long time:

  • Models made of gold or gilding need regular cleaning with a slightly damp cloth or cloth - it is imperative that the cloth is not fleecy. Please note that it is slightly damp, not wet - if water gets inside the case, you can ruin the watch (especially if it is not waterproof). Carry out such a procedure regularly, and then there will be no reason to worry that the watch will lose its appearance.
  • In the event that dirt still accumulates on the strap or in other parts of the watch, which cannot be removed in the previous way, instead of water, toothpaste (not gel) will cope well with dirt. Just apply a little paste on the fabric and gently, without pressure, wipe - the dirt should completely be removed.
  • To cope with such inaccessible places as recesses with ornaments, an ordinary toothbrush is suitable, always with soft villi. First, try to clean these places with water, and if it does not help, then with toothpaste. Do not be afraid if the paste begins to darken when cleaning the watch - this leaves the dirt, and gilding, if it is of high quality, will not suffer from this method.
  • A very important point is to carefully remove the toothpaste with a damp cloth, otherwise it will lead to corrosion of the metal in the body. To cope with hard-to-reach areas, use a clean, damp toothbrush.
  • For especially difficult cases when water and paste did not cope, a special solution WD40 was released. Apply it to a damp, contaminated surface and remove dirt with a piece of cloth, then wipe with a clean, damp cloth.
  • Dry the watch, paying particular attention to the various indentations.
  • The final step is polishing, which is done with a dry, soft cloth. Especially work where tarnishing of the metal is visible.

Using these simple procedures, the watch will always look like brand new and will last as long as possible.

Choosing a beautiful gold watch, a logical question arises: what to wear it with now.The time has already passed when they were considered suitable only “for a special occasion” - now they boldly conquer the streets and offices and turn into the necessary fashion accessory. They go well with doll dresses, and with large over-size jackets, and with cotton shirts, and with worn jeans.

A watch with a leather strap can be the main focus of the image if the strap has the right color. Give preference to white, black, and even better - red color - this is one of the best options to refresh the image and add style to it, even if the main costume is quite simple.

The latest trend is a gold watch, the strap of which repeats the color of the suit - especially if it is sandy, scarlet, soft pink, light blue, khaki or red. In order not to overdo it with color, dilute the suit with a black or white blouse, T-shirt or T-shirt and give preference to flesh-colored shoes.

In 2017, male models again returned to women's wrists. Brutal gold models emphasize the femininity of their owner. The main thing is that there is no extra decor - the stricter the better. They will look great with white shirts, and with maxi-skirts, and with chiffon dresses - the game in contrasts manifests itself in all directions of fashion.

In addition to the latest trends, it is important to remember that the classics remain eternal. Of course, even the classic design changes over time - new types of straps, the addition of jewelry contrary to the canonical self-sufficiency of gold - all this creates the so-called "neoclassical style" in which a competent combination of unobtrusive decor does not destroy elegance. Such watches will fit absolutely any style, except, perhaps, frankly sporty, so you can not be afraid to look ridiculous.

Remember only that harmony also never goes out of style.
