A watch is often used to measure a man’s success and sense of style. Trends in the watch industry are often used to track how well the economy is doing. That being said some people feel like that is the driving force behind the biggest trend in watches right now – black on black. I am talking about black watches people. Black face and black dial, sleek and sexy for sure.
Most people are now loving the black on black. Wearing a black watch some years ago might have given people the impression that you were in the military or just trying to be James Bond. Slowly acceptance of all black watches has come around and they have started to filter into the mainstream of fashion.
PVD or Physical Vapor Deposition is what most of the stainless steel or titanium watches have been coated in. This gives them that shimmering glare that they are known to give off. The technology for the PVD process was firsted used the 1960’s by folks in the metal industry.Some black watches are now considered collectors items especially the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak and Paneri PAM 004. You can find black watches almost anywhere just make sure you pick the right one.
