Diamond watches are a kind of jewelry which are liked and used by both men and women. Interestingly, the first wrist watches were nothing but diamond bracelets with a tiny time piece put on it.

One saw the first of its kind when Earl of Leicester gifted one to Queen Elizabeth which was a cute round clock adorned with impeccable diamonds and which kept on dangling from a wristband. Perhaps this was the first authentic diamond timepiece meant for use by the ladies.

Men, on the other hand wanted to wear pocket watches till WWI in stead of choosing wrist watches which according to them were rather unmanly. After the airplane came into being, it also brought with it the fist wristwatch for men. The reason for this is since there was no fuel gauge in the early aircrafts both hands had to be kept on the controls always. Therefore it was necessary to have a timepiece that (a) allowed the pilot to keep track of his range and how much fuel was left, and (b) did not necessitate the removal of his hands from the controls in order to reach for a pocket watch!

Strangely diamond engagement rings and wrist watches for men both became famous nearly simultaneously. Cartier of France, Citizen from Japan and Movado from Switzerland are the world’s three top diamond watch makers.
