Top 35 Watch Trends in October

From Ocean-Themed Watch Lines to Branded Activewear Smartwatches

These October 2019 watch trends range from ocean-themed watch lines to banded activewear smartwatches. While TAG Heuer's two new Aquaracer models draw inspiration from nature while featuring water-resistant qualities, Puma's new PUMA Smartwatch is a stylish and functional product with fitness-tracking and GPS capabilities.

When it comes to timepiece-focused accessories, the Eiffel Collection watch winders are a notable example that will appeal to luxury timepiece collectors. When not worn, up to two watches can be placed inside and safely stored. Additionally, the unit boasts an elegant, retro look that doubles as a decorative home accessory and also boasts a built-in wireless smartphone charger.

Other October 2019 watch examples include Timex and Wood Wood's minimalist Waterbury timepiece which features a glow-in-the-dark interface along with Swatch's inventive SwatchPAY! smart payment service that streamlines transactions.
