Women's gold watches today carry more functions than just indicating the time. Gold watches are an indicator of high social status, income level and, with the right choice, good taste of their owner. Despite the fact that gold is considered and is a soft metal, watches made of it are one of the strongest and most durable, since they can only contain expensive watch movements. Of course, such a purchase requires a lot of money, but the result fully justifies itself: a luxurious and elegant image, a combination of external lightness and internal strength.

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

Types and models

The use of a classic material - gold - does not imply the obligatory use of traditional manufacturing technologies. Today, a variety of manufacturing methods are used, types and models are varied, and the choice depends on personal preference.

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

Mechanical watches are more expensive as they require a lot of craftsmanship, but their accuracy is somewhat lower.

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

In addition to the standard wearing of watches on the wrist, like a bracelet, they can also be worn as a pendant - and gold watches are 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, including sending messages and calls, without taking your mobile device out of your pocket. Other features include a universal remote control, a "smart alarm" (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 a gold version, but for someone it can become an irreplaceable thing that makes life easier.

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

In the wake of the intensified development of computer technology, many designers, and just people with taste, agree that a good gold watch does not need additional improvements - both with external decoration and with respect to functionality. Laconicism and restraint - that's what will distinguish 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 choosing a suitable design. The main part of the watch's appearance is the strap, and therefore the choice should be stopped on it.

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

  • A watch with a gold bracelet made of a combination of fine threads weaves or on a gold chain is an elegant and, at the same time, eye-catching accessory.

It is also possible to order the author's design of the bracelet, which will emphasize 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 set and an original combination. Such models are somewhat cheaper than completely gold ones, but they also look elegant and are perfect for girls in high social or official positions, as well as for ordinary people, because such watches will be combined with any style of clothing.

Color, shape and decor

After reviewing and choosing the type of strap, let's 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 can choose a model that suits their personal preferences.

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

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

Dial models can be round, square, rectangular - these shapes are familiar to everyone, and there are most of them on the market. Sometimes, in new collections, there are dials of non-standard shapes, but this is a great rarity, and such watches are not suitable for every occasion and not for every style.

It is believed that gold watches do not need additional decoration, since they are made of such a 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 quantity does not translate into a guarantee of taste.

Brands

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

Nika

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

Gull

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

Now this firm cooperates with Platinor company.

Flight

The Polet plant is one of the oldest in Russia, but even now it is considered a success to purchase models from this company - they are famous for their stylish design and quality. It was this plant that produced the so-called "navigator's watches", one of which accompanied Yuri Gagarin during his flight into space.

Nairi

Yerevan watch factory "Nairi" produced a variety of high-quality watches, but in 1991 the production was stopped. It has now been partially restored, and the company specializes in the production of art clocks.

Sokolov

Of the new watchmaking firms, Sokolov should be noted. A large selection of high-quality models of all kinds of design and decent quality - all that is needed for the buyer.

Rolex

Looking at foreign models, you can see that Swiss watches are still the leader there. The best brand in Switzerland is considered Rolex, which is distinguished by its massiveness, large dial and many stones on the strap and dial.

They are suitable for those who want not so much to watch the time, but to indicate their addiction to luxury and pomp.

Tissot and Omega

Two more Swiss companies, slightly less popular, but worthy of no less attention, are Tissot and Omega. They are also of Swiss quality, but their models are less defiant in style and less expensive.

How to distinguish an original from a fake?

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

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

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

How to choose?

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

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

Depending on this, the price will also differ.

  • The mechanism of work. Traditionally, gold watches are made with a mechanical movement, since when using a quartz movement, you will sometimes need to remove the cover in order to change the batteries, and this can lead to its damage (gold is a soft metal).But if such a cover is also made of steel, there is no need to be afraid of damage, and the price of the watch will decrease.
  • Gold percentage. 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 a completely precious one.
  • Decorations. A diamond scattering on the dial will add shine, luxury and price to the watch.
  • Additional functions. Watches often contain additional functions and options (for example, a calendar, chronograph, multiple dials, and others) - you need to be sure that all this really comes in handy. Limited and exclusive collections are also 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 of precious metal, stones and brand used in the manufacture. The cost varies over a very wide range - from five thousand to millions of rubles. The most inexpensive models are dominated by leather straps, unnecessary decorations and additional functions are absent.

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

Top quality watches are often handcrafted and almost always contain decorative elements that transform the watch into a true piece of jewelry. And the price of this work corresponds to the complexity of the work and the number of jewels included in it.

Home care

A gold watch is a rather fragile piece, and improper care can lead to irreparable consequences up to the fact that they come into complete disrepair.

However, this does not mean that every time you have to refer them to the master - it is enough to know a few rules of the necessary care, with the help of which the watch will last a very long time:

  • Models made of gold or gilding require regular wiping with a slightly damp cloth or cloth - it is imperative that the cloth is not fluffy. 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 water resistant). Perform this procedure regularly, and then there will be no reason to worry that the watch will lose its appearance.
  • If dirt has accumulated on the strap or in other parts of the watch, which cannot be removed using the previous method, toothpaste (not gel) will cope well with dirt instead of water. Just apply a little paste to the fabric and wipe gently, without pressure - the dirt should be completely removed.
  • To tackle hard-to-reach places like ornate grooves, you can use a regular toothbrush, always soft-bristled. First, also try cleaning these places with water, and if that doesn't work, then with toothpaste. Do not be afraid if, when cleaning the watch, the paste begins to darken - this will remove dirt, and the gilding, if it is of high quality, will not suffer from this method.
  • A very important point is to thoroughly remove the toothpaste with a damp cloth, otherwise it will lead to corrosion of the metal in the case. To deal with hard-to-reach areas, use a clean, damp toothbrush.
  • For especially difficult cases, when water and paste did not cope, a special WD40 solution was released. Apply it to a damp, dirty surface and remove the dirt with a piece of cloth, then wipe with a clean damp cloth.
  • Wipe the watch dry, paying particular attention to the various grooves.
  • The last stage is polishing, which is done with a dry soft cloth. Especially work where tarnishing is visible.

With the help of these simple procedures, the watch will always look like new and will last as long as possible.

Beautiful images

Having chosen a beautiful gold watch, a natural question arises, with what to wear it 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 a necessary fashion accessory. They go well with doll dresses, oversized jackets, cotton shirts, and worn jeans.

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

The latest trend is gold watches, the strap of which repeats the color of the suit - especially if it is sand, scarlet, pale 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 prefer flesh-colored shoes.

In 2017, male models return 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, maxi-skirts, and chiffon dresses - the play on 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 suit absolutely any style, except, perhaps, frankly sporty, so you can not be afraid to look ridiculous.

Just remember that harmony never goes out of style either.
