TIME FOR STYLE A TRIO OF WATCH TRENDS FOR 2024 Like fashion, home décor, and food, the watch space is also home to trends that come and go. Some years it’s a hot color like green or turquoise, other years it’s all about materials like bronze and titanium, and sometimes the tendency is geared towards specific complications like chronographs or perpetual calendars. Three watch trends that are emerging in 2024 include an influx of diving watches, more compact 39 mm case sizes, and colorful dials in all sorts of vibrant shades.
DIVING WATCHES Diving watches and tool-themed timepieces have always been popular with watch consumers thanks to their sporty looks and ability to withstand more extreme environments. The diving watch trend is still alive and well with plenty of fresh and modern models hitting the market.

watches on the wrists of US Navy divers. Complete with fixed strap bars, a 42 mm titanium case, a high-performance Manufacture Caliber, and a unidirectional elapsed-time rotating bezel, it comes as the ultimate modern “Milsub” (short for Military Submariner).
