Ever since its development in 16th century to the time of World War one in 20th century, pocket watches represented not only the most popular type of portable clock design, but also an integral part of male fashion. Their practical use may have been superseded by wristwatches and mobile phones, but there is still no greater way for a gentleman to add an elegant finishing touch to his outfit than with a pocket watch.
