However effeminate they may have been considered, it was traditionally manly – and hazardous – activities that eventually brought about the existence of mens watches for the wrist. Specifically, these were deep-sea diving, aviation, and tragically, warfare. These early wrist watches for adventurous men, first appearing around 1905, were slow to catch on. However, in time the convenience of these timepieces became apparent, and mens watches jumped out the pockets and on to the wrists of men around the world. Related Article Tags: , , , ,

Ironically, it was the pursuit of “manly activities” that led to the development of the first mens wrist watches. In 1905, early aircraft did not have fuel gauges, and the only way to tell how much fuel you had left was to know how much your engine consumed every hour (even today, aircraft fuel economy is described in terms of gallons per hour). In order to keep track, it was necessary to watch the clock – but when it came to the highly unstable aircraft of the early days, taking one’s hands off the controls for even a second was a bad idea. The first mens wrist watches were designed for aviators. Related Article Tags: , , , ,
For most of the past five hundred years, most watches – including men’s diamond watches and similar portable timepieces – were designed either to be worn around the neck or carried in a pocket.

As such, men considered them “effeminate.” However designer watches designed to be worn on a man’s wrist came about as a result of “manly” pursuits such as deep-sea diving, flying mechanical aircraft and tragically, warfare; in short, activities in which delicate pocket watches were simply not practical.
