Timepieces to Suit Different Personalities

5 November 2021

If you’re looking for a new watch, check out our list of timepieces for different personalities, to help you find the perfect one that suits your lifestyle best.

Much like jewellery, accessories and clothes, the timepieces we wear have become an extension of our lifestyle, each revealing our tastes, pursuits and personalities.

People are multi-faceted, and may have a watch collection as they wear different ‘faces’ to match their outfits, activities and moods. There are of course also watches that work for all occasions, in the same way that there are people who wear the same type of watch all their lives.

Whether we pick them because of form or function, watches have evolved to become more than time-tellers. So, which watch would suit your personality and lifestyle? Check out our list of watch personalities and see which corresponding timepieces match you best.

Savvy Multitasker

You like to be on top of things, and that means having information at your fingertips – from the messages you’re receiving, your heart rate, the next song on your Spotify playlist, to even the weather. Your perfect watch is one that can bring all that to you, keeps you on-the-ball all day, plus tell the time, of course. And it mustn’t just be smart, it must look good too.

Apple Watch Series 7
Its largest, most advanced Always-on Retina display makes everything you do with your Apple Watch Series 7 bigger and better. Not to mention, it is the most durable Apple Watch yet with its crack-resistant front crystal. Advanced features let you measure your blood oxygen level, take an ECG anytime, and access mindfulness and sleep tracking apps on-the-go.

Samsung Watch4
The all-new Watch4 was engineered to be the companion to your journey towards a healthier you. Not does it track your workouts, it also comes with a sleep tracker that detects and holistically analyses your sleep stages while you rest. Improved measuring options let you check your body composition, blood oxygen levels and snoring patterns, if any.

Dapper Gentleman

Your work life and personal predilection for sharp suits and semi-formal wear mean you practically live in crisp tailored togs. While it’s nice to mix the look up with casual sports watches and sneakers, nothing beats the synthesized look of an elegant timepiece – something handsome and timeless that endures the seasons, like a well-tailored bespoke suit.

BOSS Distinction
For the man who has a taste for the classics, the BOSS Distinction collection offers him the needful: a sunray dial with three-hand movement, classical indexes, and a date function. These are complemented by a crocodile-embossed leather strap. The BOSS logo provides the finishing touch to this evergreen design.

Sekonda Gents Dual-time Watch
This is a case where simple design trumps too many complications. Its rose gold-plated case features a silver sunray dial with batons, dual time settings and date. To complete the look, this stylish timpiece comes with a handsome black leather strap that matches easily with almost any outfit.

Fitness Enthusiast

You have an active lifestyle and are frequently engaged in sporting activities that require you to track your heart rate, calorie-burn and personal best times. A sporty person needs a watch that can perform all these tasks, plus give him or her additional information on the best routes for long runs and the best ways of connecting with like-minded workout aficionados.

Garmin Marq Athlete
For highly motivated fitness buffs, who set high standards of performance for themselves, this exercise-savvy timepiece is tuned to separate you from the rest. Some of its standout smart features include recovery time and VO2 max scales on the bezel. It also offers the best local running and cycling routes wherever you are. 

What’s also impressive: its race predictor projects how well you’ll perform at your next run or workout, while other performance metrics indicate whether you’re achieving the improvements you expect.

Fitbit Inspire 2
It will motivate you to better health and fitness by tracking your daily activity level, your sleep, as well as your cardio fitness. All this to help you reach your fitness milestones and goals. This timekeeper will also send you alerts to stay active, as well as text and calendar notifications.

Thrill Seeker

You live for the adrenalin rush, whether in your extreme sporting or leisure pursuits. The thrill-seeker in you needs a hardy but cool timepiece that can keep up with your dives, jumps, mountain climbs and treks through every kind of terrain.

BOLDR Odyssey Freediver 202
Built for freedivers and underwater adventurers, this watch is inspired by the sheer will and bravery of freedivers, who push their bodies to the limit for the love of the sport. Breathholding takes an ample amount of patience and perseverance - qualities that feed the BOLDR state of mind.

Strap one on and channel the freediving spirit as you dive into everyday challenges. Its dial is clearly marked with luminescent hands and indexes that’s shielded by a flat sapphire crystal lens to ensure legibility during the dive. 

Tommy Hilfiger Urban Explorer
Clean, minimal, and sleek. This fuss-free timepiece that wears flushed against your wrist, will not get in the way of your quests and explorations. It has a large, manly 46mm case crafted in lasting stainless steel, with grey IP finishes. Available on a brushed bracelet, it is also water-resistant to 50 metres.

Horological Connoisseur

You’re a fan of watch engineering. You really appreciate the marvelous workings of a watch, especially complications, from the very simple and commonplace, to extremely rare works of high horology that combine numerous functions. From minute repeaters to tourbillons, they are all gems to you, and you buy and wear such a watch proudly for just those reasons.

Breitling Navitimer B01 Chronograph 46
You can’t go wrong with a robust Breitling, a marque that stands for excellence in features, performance and design. The classic larger-than-life Navitimer features a generous 46 mm diameter that optimises the readability of the dial and the circular aviation slide rule. A transparent caseback reveals the chronometer-certified, high-performance self-winding chronograph caliber.

Claude Bernard Classic Chronograph Retrograde
The simple design of this timepiece belies its chronographic and retrograde complications, features that its wearer will never tire of. Made with sapphire crystal over a stainless steel case, it has a capacious 40.5mm face and is water-resistant down to 50m. This understated timepiece, with an enduring design, will appeal to the watch collector in you.

Rugged Explorer

You could easily live off the land, or you at least find it fun and liberating to try your hand at it. You’ve always enjoyed communing with Mother Nature, hunting, fishing, and foraging for your own food. You can also build a mean fire and tent like a good boy scout. Your watch says you’re a wilderness survivor and proud of it.

Luminox Bear Grylls Survival Master
Luminox partners Bear Grylls, the world’s most recognised face of survival and outdoor adventure with this ‘Luminox X Bear Grylls’ collection timepiece. In case you’re wondering if it’s truly made for surviving the wild, this watch and others in the collection have been designed with features specified by Grylls himself that will come in handy in extreme situations.

Casio G-Shock GA-100-1A1DR
The humble Casio G-Shock just got stronger and hardier in this empowered model designed with a large case, tough-looking exterior and over-sized buttons. It’s engineered to deliver outstanding shock and water resistance, as well as anti-magnetism feature. Dial rings and raised hour markers create three-dimensional depth that gives the face plenty of character. 

Chic Fashionista

You have a flair for owning the room, whether you’re dressed to the nines or are in something casual and understated. Style is your middle name and people gravitate towards you hoping some of your designer glamour will rub off on them. Your timepiece is either out-and-out trendy and fashionable or too-cool-to-care, because style has many faces.

MAM SILT
Its delicate design has made it one of MAM Originals’ most popular pieces. A wooden watch which is as light and durable as the sustainable maplewood it is made from, it has clean lines, bright gold details in the dial, and an adjustable strap. This watch is synonymous with precision and a cool, chic style.

A beautiful timepiece that makes a glamorous accessory, this Swarovski watch adds a scintillating touch to any outfit. The stunning silver-tone dial and the stainless-steel case make a luminous combination. Its elegant symmetry makes it perfect for any special occasion.
