The Wristwatch It is generally believed that wristwatches are an exceptionto the normal sequence in the evolution of man’s jewelry.Reversing the usual order, they were first worn by women,and then adopted by men.In the old days, queens included wristwatches among their crown jewelry. Later, they were worn by Swiss workers and farmers.Until World War I, Americans associated the watch with fortune hunters.Then army officers discovered that the wristwatch was most practical for active combat. Race car drivers also loved to wear wristwatches,and pilots found them most useful while flying.Soon, men dared to wear wristwatches without feeling self-conscious.By 1924, some 30% of men’s watches were worn on the wrist.Today, the figure is 90%.And they are now worn by both men and womenfor practical purposes rather than for decoration.
