{ giveaway } Orient Automatic Watches


The convenience of an ever-present iPhone has made a wristwatch obsolete in my wardrobe, but these masculine watches by Orient are just the thing to make me reconsider. Ironically, wristwatches - referred to as "wristlets" at the turn of the century - were originally reserved for women. Men actually preferred to carry pocket watches. (You can thank Wikipedia for today's trivia lesson.)

I realize that it's not always practical to dig through a cavernous purse to find your cellular timepiece, which is why I'm excited to announce that Orient is giving away a watch to one Style Obsession reader! The winner will choose his/her favorite face color from the options featured above. The prize is valued at $135.
