Mens watches Omax
The history of Swiss watches dates back to the 16th century. They have always been the standard of quality and reliability. The Swiss company Omax is quite young, it was founded only in the middle of the last century. But its products meet all the requirements of standards and are in demand among consumers for quality and affordable prices.
Advantages and disadvantages
Initially, while production was located directly in Switzerland, the company produced mechanical watches. But this type of mechanism requires a lot of manual work and is expensive. With the development of electronic technology, the company began to cooperate with Japan. Then it was the most advanced country that produced the latest electronic mechanisms Miyota and Seiko, based on quartz microelements.
In 1985, the company's representative office moved to the UAE, and production was launched in China. New quartz watch models have become more affordable due to automation of assembly processes, but at the same time the high quality of workmanship has been preserved.
Now the company mainly produces quartz models (80%)... Japanese calibers provide high, almost chronometric precision of the watch movement. Deviations per month of operation are allowed no more than 20 seconds. The warranty is given for 2 years. Continuous battery life is designed for 4 years.
Mechanical men's watches Omax are produced in a higher price category, are considered more elite, but the warranty coupons for them have a shorter period, since the mechanism contains parts that wear out rather quickly.

Selection Tips
Independent, self-confident people choose what they like without following fashion or other rules. Perhaps this is true, but many still prefer to adhere to generally accepted norms, and before making a purchase, heed the advice of experienced people in their field. Let's see what stylists advise when choosing a men's watch. Accessories, and watches are one of the elements of the image, are matched to clothes and shoes.
If a man wears a business suit most of the time, then the watch should be kept in classic and laconic option. Athletes and people with an active lifestyle need more durable watchthat can withstand shock, contact with water, temperature changes.
Men of creative and creative professions are suitable Fashion style watch. Urban style - the so-called Casual - suggests a looser type of clothing, which can be combined, for example, jeans with a jacket. Accordingly, the watch can be selected with more original dial, with textured strap.
Further when choosing a watch anatomical features are taken into account - the height, fullness of a person, the shape and volume of his wrist. The larger the hand, the larger the dial should be and the wider the strap. The diameter of the watch dial must not exceed the width of the wrist. It will not be very pretty and will also be uncomfortable to wear.
In general, the watch should harmoniously complement the general appearance of a man and correspond to his status.
