10 Watch Styles EVERY Man Needs To Know (Dress, Aviator, Field, Dive, Pocket, Smart Watches)

About this video

Centeno presents ten watch styles every man should understand, tracing their historical origins and functional characteristics. He covers rail watches, pocket watches, field watches, dress watches, dive watches, aviator watches, racing watches, digital watches, smartwatches, and fashion watches, explaining how each emerged to meet specific needs and continues to serve distinct purposes in modern menswear.

Key takeaways

  • Centeno argues that each watch style has a historical purpose rooted in functionality—from rail watches ensuring train safety to dive watches enabling underwater exploration—and understanding this history helps men choose appropriate timepieces
  • Centeno emphasizes that dress watches should prioritize elegance and simplicity with thin profiles, dark leather bands, and modest sizing (under 42mm), while tool watches like dive and racing watches prioritize visible complications and durability
  • Centeno defends fashion watches as legitimate entry points for men new to horology, noting that most established watch brands began as fashion pieces and that aesthetic appeal is a valid reason to wear a watch
