A dress watch needs to be simplistic and elegant.It is subtle, understated and charming. In every man’s life there comes a time when a dress watch is required, whether it’s the occasional wedding or may be an important meeting or a job interview or black-tie event or even every day at the office. So it is time to add a dress watch to your collection.

A dress watch is characterised by its clean lines and understated features: First, a leather strap. Although a metal strap is perfectly acceptable for formal events, a leather strap is generally considered more traditional – adding a subtle touch to your outfit. Secondly, a simple face. The dial on the watch must be simple and clean, the less the better. There are very clean face preferably black, white, silver or gold colored. Lastly, a case measuring around 10mm thick. The thickness of the case is another virtue in a classic dress watch, being of a diminutive height so that it slides easily under a shirt cuff and gives a subtle wrist presence. That’s why it is called a “dress” watch. 

In general, Rolex is associated with luxury sports watches. However, if you are looking for a dressier, more classic watch, the Rolex Cellini collection is most possibly your first choice. The name of the collection, created in honour of the 16th century Italian sculptor Benvenuto Cellini, was chosen to evoke the ideals of harmony, proportion and perspective championed during the Renaissance. The Rolex Cellini is the perfect representation of elegance and nobility, offering a sleek and classic design. Leather watch strap always can be seen on the Rolex Cellini watches, because it is defined as the business dressing watches, so the leather straps are more suitable. Besides the Rolex Cellini, you can also choose the glitzy replica Rolex Day-Date watch with a simple dinner suit to make an impression, or opt for more relaxed formalwear with the iconic Yacht-Master.
