The functions of luxury watches

Many people would say that luxury watches don't really have any function because the word 'luxury' denominates only things that you actually don't need to survive. Of course, luxury watches are not essential for survival, but they can still be very useful.

For example, they are a good and very safe investment. Quality work and precious materials don't lose their value as easy as e.g. stocks – as you could see during the financial crisis. So, a safe full of valuable jewelry, gold and high-quality watches can be a better reserve than an investment at the stock-market.

Furthermore, a man with classy mens watches can be identified immediately as a wealthy and powerful man. In the best case, he can be identified as someone with a good taste as well. This implies that a watch serves not only as a chronometer, but also as a sort of status symbol. If you are wearing a watch from the supermarket, anyone will recognize it immediately and in certain social environments you will probably be less respected. You might say that this is superficial, but that's the way it is in more influential circles. If you're not able to keep up with the others regarding the material standards, you are dismissed or at least ridiculed very quickly.

So, not only cars, suits and apartments can be status symbols, but watches definitely have potential, too.
