Quartz and Mechanical Movement
Watch movement powers the watch and makes it work. Driving all of the timekeeping functions, including regular time, dual-time, a chronograph, and sometimes a calendar, a watch could not function without it.

Peninsula
Featuring fashionable straps made from ostrich or alligator hide, buyers choose between a classic and a chronograph face for this Swiss quartz timepiece. A multitude of color options for the strap and face make selection difficult, but adventurous men appreciate water resistance up to 100 meters.
Planetimer
Presenting a trendy alligator or colorful silicone strap, this mechanical watch caters to all modern men. The metallic dial displays a unique scalloped pattern with pie-cutter hands and raised genuine ruby markers. This watch comes in black ion plate, gold plate, and stainless steel, and certain products also offer a winder.
Women’s Styles
The Swiss Legend company also makes a number of trendy products for women. Offering a number of feminine features including diamond studding and colorful bands, these products adorn any woman’s wrist.
Bella
Featuring a unique, rectangular face and ceramic bracelet, this hypoallergenic, scratch-resistant watch is exceptionally comfortable. Female buyers choose from black and white bracelets with gold-plated, stainless steel, or diamond inlaid bezels. Mother-of-pearl dials with Art Deco inspired numbers make this watch a favorite among fashion-conscious women.
Classic
The Classic provides an elegant, stainless steel bracelet and a number of color choices for the watch face, which is framed by a stainless steel or gold-plated bezel. Featuring Swiss quartz movement and water resistance up to 100 meters, this watch makes an elegant choice for a no-nonsense woman.
Karamica
The stunning Karamica watch highlights a chunky bracelet in beige, black, or white ceramic with a number of options for the watch face. These include a face with a diamond-studded bezel, one that is entirely covered in diamonds, or a simpler face featuring classic Roman numerals. Scratch-resistant and hypoallergenic, this timekeeper is functional and beautiful.
Watch Sizing
Most standard metal women’s bracelets measure 6.75 to 7 inches, while men’s metal bracelets measure 7.5 to 8 inches. Diver watches are larger because they are designed for wearing atop a wetsuit. Metal bracelets may call for removal of links, which a jeweler can easily handle.
Leather or silicon watch bands with holes and buckles must be long enough to comfortably wrap around the wearer’s wrist and fit through casings and buckles. Available in precut and pre-shaped sizes, watch band length varies between 6 and 9 inches for men and between 5 and 8 inches for women.
