Pearls are more in style now than ever before and have even found their way into men’s fashion. We have gathered our top 10 mother of pearl watches to help you to discover your next trendy timepiece. Pearls have seen a huge rise in popularity in recent months, and this has extended to the mother of pearl dials of some watches. Although often considered a feature for women’s watches, mother of pearl is making its way into the men’s watch market. Mother of pearl has been used in the designs of some of the most beautiful watches in the world and is set to be one of the biggest watch trends of the year.
Mother of pearl is one of the toughest materials on the planet when in its natural form. It is sometimes called nacre. This material is secreted by molluscs and is used as a structural defence in the shells of these creatures. In order to be used on watch dials, nacre has to be sliced incredibly thinly which makes it a very delicate and precious material. Mother of pearl tends to be naturally white in colour, but colour can sometimes occur naturally or can be added later. The beautiful shine of this material is referred to as iridescence and it is this that is coveted in watches. If you are searching for your next timepiece, keep reading for our top 10 mother of pearl watches.
