Grooms don’t have as many accessory options for the wedding as the brides, but for the ones they do have, they can definitely buy the best! One such accessory for the groom that is worth investing in is watches. Watches are not only great wedding gifts or accessories but worth spending on because your groom can where them for as long as he wants, since they are well, quite simply timeless!

Weddings are a time to invest in a luxury watch that spells not only class and elegance but because they are a great indulgence like the many jewelry items a bride would purchase. There are many high end brands you can opt for like Tissot, Omega, Vacheron Constantin, Rolex, Burberry and Bvlgari. Of course you don’t have to spend a pretty packet. If you prefer something more casual or sporty and frankly less wallet busting brands like Fossil, Tag Heuer and Diesel offer great watch collections as well. And of course in India, you will find great contemporary and traditional styles at Titan. The company even makes watch sets for couples, perfect for weddings.

When buying a watch as a wedding accessory, look for a metal or material that is in sync with the clothes and other accessories. For an Indian outfit, gold or gold look watches may be more apt, whereas for Western wear like suits and tuxes, you can pretty much find a vast variety. Watches made from alternative and modern materials like titanium, tungsten and stainless steel etc. are also really popular nowadays.

Of course to make this time-piece more special you can have it inscribed with a special message, the day and date of the wedding, your names etc. What better way to commemorate this very special time in your lives!
