Bracelet and Watch Is A Perfect Match

A stylish watch with a leather strap is a classic look. But every classic look needs a little twist!

Men are very fond of a unique timepiece. Your partner or father probably has more than one watch, and definitely has his eye on a couple of new ones! Men can always spot when someone at the party has an especially expensive or stylish watch peeking out of their shirt.

Rather than sitting on the bench when browsing for watches, get involved! Show him that you care about his watch collection and fashion hobby. You can even help him have more fun with his watch by adding a bracelet. A wooden bracelet can help a watch really pop on the wrist.

When going for a bracelet and watch combo, there are a couple of options. You can go for a big contrast. For example, if they have a chunky metal watch, you can pair it with a thin wooden bracelet. The simple bracelet made from wood will offset the appearance of the metal. Or, if your man has a wooden watch, add wooden bracelets with different tones and colors. The finish on A Few Wood Men's wooden bracelets is exquisite.

At A Few Wood Men, you can also get an apple band. These bands have a clean and straightforward design that can jazz up your apple watch. The contrast between the dark steel watch and a beautiful wooden band is very striking.

Everyone gets a bit fed up with looking at the same design every day. How many times have you changed your phone? Every year, or two?

Tips When Choosing Your Bracelets

No matter what type of man you are, you’re sure to find a style that suits you. Whether your style is eccentric, classic, punk, or rocker, there’s a type of bracelet for everyone.

If you're looking for tips on what style to wear with your bracelet, take a look at our handy guide below.

Tip 1 - The Material Is Important

You have a lot of different types of material. At A Few Wood Men, you can buy bracelets made of leather, wood, and also beaded ones formed from natural stone. Make sure the material is a match for that handsome gent in your life.

If they are a sporty and active person, the stone bracelet is a great choice. Stone is a sturdy material that can handle a bit of a rough treatment. The stone retains its crafted round shape even if it is getting bashed around. In addition, they will not pick up scratches easily, and they are water-resistant. So if your man is a surfer or likes to take you away to exotic beach locations, the stone material is the one for him. He can plunge the bracelet into the sea all day, and when you are going for dinner in the evening, it will still look like it did the day you bought it.

The leather bracelet, on the other hand, needs a bit more TLC. Make sure it is kept away from water and remove it when doing any activity where it might be damaged. The leather bracelet is for the more reserved man who likes the world to come to him. A gentleman who likes to relax with a book would love A Few Wood Men's Ahmad Bracelet. The leather is super soft and comfortable to wear. It will never once bother or irritate the wearer.

A leather bracelet will serve him better and for longer if it is cleaned well. Every so often, take it out of his drawer and give it a minor tune-up. However, be careful! If you are careless, then you might actually be adding to the damage.

 Follow these simple instructions for getting the job done correctly: 

• First, take a slightly wet cloth or tissue and slowly rub the surface of the leather. 

• You can use a bar of soap but not a scented one. Oils and skin cream are not to be used on the bracelet. 

• After it is clean, let it dry on its own! Do not use a hairdryer for the drying process. 

Tip 2 - Just One Isn't Enough

Once you give your husband or friend a quality bracelet, they will be on the hunt for more. They might feel a little strange wearing it at the start, but you should give them a nudge in the right direction. Hype them up and get your camera out for a few snaps. A curated bracelet set looks fantastic in a photo!

When choosing a bracelet set to stack up on your man's wrist, be careful about which ones you select. A set should mix and match different styles of bracelets. A set of identical bracelets is not visually exciting. Remember to combine lots of colors and materials to get that eye-catching pop.

Your men’s bracelet set should be around 3 to 4 bracelets. More than 4 would start to detract the rest of the outfit. Bracelets are meant to be a stylish touch that compliments the clothes and accessories around them. Also, if there are too many leather bracelets, the person will look like an extra in a roman gladiator film.

Tip 3 - Avoid The Traps

The bracelets are a fun addition to your man's look, but you can't just let him throw it on his wrist. You took your time to pick out the right one, so make sure he takes time to wear it correctly. There are many ways to wear one. However, this means that there are also many wrong ways to wear it!

Here are some traps that we don't want him to fall right into: 

• If he has a watch that doesn't quite compliment the bracelet. Move the bracelet to the opposite arm. Sometimes a watch and a bracelet are a match made in heaven. But other times, they might need a quick divorce. 

• A big mistake first-time bracelet wearers make is forgetting that the bracelet is an accessory. Accessory is the keyword here. The bracelet isn't the star of the show! Remember that it is there to support your look rather than make it. Don't wear your chunkiest watch and pair it with a very flashy stone bracelet. A bracelet should act like any supporting star. They are there to make the leading actor look good! 

• There are bracelets for all occasions. But that doesn't mean that every bracelet is perfect for every event. When you are both getting ready for a party, have a think about what the vibe will be. If the party is a work function - keep it toned down! A bracelet that is very loud and colorful should be reserved for when he is clocked out of work. 

Tip 4 - Wear It Right. Or Left!

Last but not least, this final tip is going to help him with the trickiest call.

After he opens your beautiful stone or leather bracelet gift. He has a big decision to make. But luckily for him, it is a 50/50 choice - which wrist is the bracelet going on?

 Your husband or boyfriend likes to get his hands dirty. When he is working with his tools or doing exercise, the bracelet could get damaged. To prevent this from happening, place the bracelet on his non-dominant hand. He will likely be using it less, so it will not get scratched.

Ultimately, this will come down to personal preference, but you can also switch it up during the day. Either way, he should keep it safe and in good condition. Playing with it too much isn't going to help it last.

That's A Wrap!
