A set of watch resolutions to kick off 2018

Hard to believe, but we’re already one week into the new year. And for many of us, that means we’re abiding by our list of resolutions to perhaps get healthier, more organized, or more mindful in 2018. For the watch enthusiast, however, we’d like to recommend some of our own watch resolutions—new luxury watch goals, so to speak.

Watch Resolutions #1: Get rid of watches you don’t wear

Take a good hard look at your watch box or dresser drawer. Chances are that you have some pieces in there that haven’t seen the light of day for ages. We all have them—watches that we don’t wear but keep anyway for either sentimental reasons or because we simply don’t know what to do with them.

There are several advantages of selling pre-owned watches that you don’t wear anymore. Not only does it leave you with money to spend on other timepieces that you want, it also makes more space to store them too! This year, before buying a pre-owned luxury watch, think about your lifestyle and wardrobe and what kind of timepieces you need to adequately fit both.

If you’re often dressed in business attire and spend most days in an office, an elegant dress watch is perhaps the way to go. If you’re the sporty type that spends plenty of time outdoors, perhaps often in water, then a robust dive watch may be well suited for you. If you enjoy wearing items with a touch of flash, then check out some diamond watches to see if any speak to you. The choices in luxury watch brand and styles are vast, so invest in watches that will get the most wrist time possible according to your needs and tastes.

Watch Resolutions #3: Pick up some straps to easily change up the look of your watches

Change out your metal bracelets for leather straps, or leather bands for rubber straps and you’ll be surprised at how different your watch looks and feels. Opt for a range of colors, materials, and patterns. Taking advantage of a solid collection of different watch straps and bracelets can feel like you’re wearing a new watch every day for a fraction of the cost.

We hope these tips help you organize your watch collection for the upcoming year. What watch resolutions do you have this year? Are there any particular timepieces you want to add to your collection?
