#BreakTheBias with Black and Bold Timepieces to Commemorate International Women's Day

It is widely argued that the first official wristwatch was created for a woman, namely Countess Koscowicz of Hungary, by a Swiss watchmaker in 1868. It is also said that women were commonly known to wear them regularly in the 19th century and that men didn't really take to them until the start of the First World War. Later, the wristwatch went from being seen as a piece of women's attire to donning the wrist of every soldier and nearly every civilian by the early 20th century.


Today, the wristwatch remains a common accessory and status symbol for gentlemen across the globe. From intricate details and precious metals to robust designs, there's a timepiece that suits every man's taste and fancy.


This International Women's Day, we'd like to pay homage to the origins of the wristwatch while also celebrating diversity by #BreakingTheBias around this coveted so-called men's accessory.
