It is pretty evident from what we have already seen this year that 2012 will carry on a lot of trends and drop others. In this final quarter of 2011 we are still seeing the oversized faces. What we are likewise starting to see, though, is a shift toward androgyny and modern designs once forgotten along with the 1980s and 1990s. Digital is making a comeback. In the other direction, because there will always be galore polarization of watch trends, we are seeing a call to the mechanical, making the inner clockwork visible through the face. It is closely remindful of Victorian clockwork, but it is very much a product of the progressed age.
While it may not be as prevalent as the chronograph, polyurethane digital watches are being devised again. They are vintage inspired pieces. There are men’s Fossil watches following this very design. They largely have rectangular faces, following suit with the deco designs from the past. They look cool as casual wear while likewise remaining comfortable for active living.
The ladies Fossil watches, however, are taking on a dissimilar style. They’re following the little face, bracelet design. These delicate timepieces will also be making a comeback, and act as a necessary rival to the oversized watches as of late. The remainder will be struck again. The tiny traditionalisti faces are sleek in silver-tone stainless steel. Bejeweled watches act as a jewelry accessory just as much as they do a watch.
Speaking of stainless steel, who says it can not be colorful? You may find a great deal of Armani watches in two-tone designs. The more basic ones are in silver and black, often times with grey and gold tones. Other brands carry more brilliant color casing, a heap of of which are silicone wrapped for the effect.
New generations are starting to realize that watch designs do not need to be confined by gender stereotypes. One example was the cross-over this past year of women’s oversized watch faces. Swatch watches make artist-inspired pieces that are gender-neutral. Contemporary design codes do not often times abide by the norms we took for granted. Women’s sport timepieces will now feature chronographs. Some leather bracelet watches are available for men. The lines among fashion and feature are blending to create new ideas, and it is in all likelihood for the better as it increments the target buyer audiences.
The least anybody could say is that the future of watch-making will be interesting. There are a lot of things to keep an eye on for the upcoming calendar year.

Great timepiece
By QCIllini
Great watch. Nice, solid construction. Keeps great time. Easy to read. Very comfortable strap/watch feel. The watch looked too big in the photo, but after getting it and wearing it for a couple of minutes, yes big, too big? No! It’s a conversation starter, for sure. Attractive finish, accents, etc. Can be worn everyday or just to the office. Casual, yet sophisticated. I would highly recommend this watch to anyone looking for a well priced, well made, casual sport watch with a very masculine appeal. Only drawback, no Indiglo? The hour/min. hands glow in the dark…as do the hour markers, but it’s hard to tell the time 5 hours after the last daylight…
