A man would gift a diamond engagement ring to the woman he proposes to marry when she accepts the proposal and this is done not just in Spain, but in many other countries of the world. Of course these are very pleasant to look at but gifting diamond watches for men and women is also a useful concept. The most sought-after pieces are created by prominent names in the industry, and different jewelers specialize in various types of this jewelry.

Tacori, for example is a designer known for its diamond jewelry meant for weddings and mixes the classical and modern styles with deftness. For some of the most colorful and exotic pieces depend on Hildago creations whereas engagement rings from the 130-year old company Christian Bauer are available from select outlets and their diamond jewelry is made only to order.

Never be under the notion that any diamond can find its way on to these exclusive pieces since the stones have to be checked and certified for grades of color and clarity and only then selected.

Both men and women admire and wear diamond watches as a jewelry item. 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. Perhaps this was the first authentic diamond timepiece meant for use by the ladies.

Men however opted for pocket watches till the First World War since they felt that wristwatches looked good only on women. The creation of the airplane simultaneously led to the advent of wristwatches for men. This is due to the fact that during early years of the airplane, both hands were used for control purposes in the absence of fuel gauges. A need was felt thus for a timepiece which would twin purposes of the pilot tracking his range and checking the fuel stock and not remove his hands from the controls so that he could have a look at 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 best-known manufacturers of diamond watches are Cartier of France, Citizens of Japan, and Movado of Switzerland.

When you hear the words 'runs like a Swiss watch', remember, the products of the last company is behind this praise. Movado who has a range of nearly 200 clearly defined and characteristic diamond watches, have been in this business for a century now.
