Wristwatches are often treated as jewellery or as collectible works of art rather than as timepieces. This has created several different markets for wristwatches, ranging from very inexpensive but accurate watches intended for no other purpose than telling the correct time, to extremely expensive watches that serve mainly as personal adornment or as examples of high achievement in miniaturization and precision mechanical engineering.
A dual time watch is designed for travelers, allowing them to see what time it is at home when they are elsewhere.
Most companies that produce watches specialize in one of these markets. Companies such as Breitling, Patek Phillipe, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Omega, Blancpain, Longines, Ebel, and Rolexspecialize in watches as jewellery or fine mechanical devices, while companies such as Casioand Timexspecialize in watches as timepieces or multifunctional computers. In the 1980s, the Swiss Swatchcompany hired graphic designers to redesign a new annual collection of non-repairable watches.
