Boy do I have a long history with watches lol. Growing up, I was always the kid that was riiiight on time to everything, but it took my dad reminding me 129803 times of what time it was. One of my earliest memories is my dad’s thick, black watch. He always wore it! I mean, I distinctly remember that watch tanline in the summer. 😜
As I get older, I just want to be more like my dad. He’s the kindest, smartest, most-hard working person I know. Time management is part of his character. It’s how he balances multiple business, working overtime, and prioritizing his family. So, when I pick out a watch, it has a lot of sentimental value to me.
Choosing a Timepiece You Can Build On
When JORD Watches contacted me a month ago to review one of their watches, I was really excited about the opportunity. JORD makes gorgeous wood watches for men (which is what came to my mind), but I wasn’t familiar with their ladies timewear. A few of my friends have had engraved wood watches made for their groomsmen, and I thought it was such a sweet gift! I have heard nothing but amazing things about the company, so after I submitted my order, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on my new marble face watch!
I want to be able to wear the same watch dressed up or dressed down. One of the most fun parts of getting ready is choosing my bracelet/watch stack. So, choosing a neutral, well-made watch is key to be able to build on. Go read A Showstopping Summer Wedding Guest Dress to see how I styled a watch to wear with a formal dress!
It was hard to choose from the beautiful, classic minimalist selection of watches. I landed on the Sier Arcadia Silver & White Style. Like most everyone, I wear the same jewelry every single day, so I wanted something that could go with almost every outfit. The marble watch face is rough cut from white turquoise and hand polished to a beautiful luster. I especially like how this watch comes with interchangeable bands (one leather and one metal mesh).
