Diamond Watches

The earliest direct ancestor of today’s diamond watches were gear-and-spring driven devices invented in Europe during the 1400s; the first watches were miniature versions of the same device, worn around the neck. The first true wristwatches really were diamond watches. These were small timepieces integrated into actual diamond jewelry bracelets for women who were members of European royalty. Most historians consider this to be the first ladies diamond watch.

Wrist watches were considered effeminate until around 1900; virtually all mens watches were pocket watches. The result was the first wristwatch for men; these convenient instruments soon superseded wrist watches in terms of popularity.

The latter company has been making watches for men since the early part of the last century; today, there are nearly 200 different models of mens and ladies diamond watches to choose from, many of which are among the finest diamond watches available on the market today.
