Elevate your wedding look further by opting for these contemporary luxury watches for grooms this wedding season!
On a day infused with promises and velvet, a good watch is like the unobtrusive vow on your wrist. Whether you’re sliding into an ivory sherwani, a sharp razortux, or a handstitched bandhgala, the perfect watch transforms your outfit from dashing to unforgettable.
Here is your guide created by our team at Wedding Affair to the newest high-end watches to consider in 2025 featuring watches that merge innovation, legacy, and the type of sophistication that looks stunning in photos and matures even better.
Choosing “the one”
Before delving into individual models, three tests should be passed by a groom’s watch:
- It fits your ceremony. Formal ceremonies adore sophisticated dress watches; cocktail reception celebrations embrace sporty chic steel; beach vows cherish water-ready refinement.
- It fits your life after the aisle. You’ll wear this for decades so choose a piece that moves effortlessly from office to anniversary dinner.
- It feels like you. Case size, dial colour, metal, strap. Try it on; trust the mirror.
