Some times folks try to measure the state of the economy by how well men are dressing and how much the watch they are cost. That being said some people feel like that is the driving force behind the biggest trend in watches right now - black on black. These watches are blacked out for sure, black face, black dial and I must admit that they are looking extremely sexy as well.
Most people are now loving the black on black. Wearing a black watch some years ago might have given people the impression that you were in the military or just trying to be James Bond. Slowly acceptance of all black watches has come around and they have started to filter into the mainstream of fashion. Just the other day Jennifer Aniston was spotted with an oversized men’s black watch on her wrist.
Black timepieces are often presented in lustrous titanium or stainless steel cases and are PVD coated. PVD stands for Physical Vapor Deposition. This process was first used in 1966 in the heavy metals industries. The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak End of Days and Panerai PAM 004 stand out among other modern black watches as they are in strong demand among collectors.
