Diamond watches are a kind of jewelry which are liked and used by both men and women. The first wrist watches word were in fact, diamond bracelets with a puny timepiece mounted. One saw the first of its kind when Earl of Leicester gifted one to Queen Elizabeth which was a cute round clock adorned with impeccable diamonds and which kept on dangling from a wristband. Probably this was the first real diamond watch for ladies.

Wristwatches were treated as womanly by men who only sported pocket watches till First World War. The innovation of the airplane triggered the developmental process for the first wrist watch for men too. This was the case as during the initial years of the aircraft, the pilot had to use both his hands for controlling since fuel gauges were absent. Therefore a need emerged whereby a timepiece was necessary which would allow the pilot to track his range and check the fuel load and which would not necessitate removing his hands from the control, just to reach out for his pocket watch.

Interestingly, the large-scale acclaim of diamond engagement rings happened at the same time when wrist watches for men hit the popularity charts. Today the three world famous diamond watches are from Cartier of France, Citizen from Japan and Movado from Switzerland. When you hear the words 'runs like a Swiss watch', remember, the products of the last company is behind this praise. Movado has been in business for over 100 years, and have well over 200 different and distinct diamond watches to choose from.
