The $75 ring watch is a standard size seven watch that is made to fit on a finger. The ring watch's time face is perhaps just big enough to deceive those from afar of the size of the carat, but the functional watch is a classy addition of combining two fashion items together. The watch features a [Seiko](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seiko-presage-craftsmanship-series-porter) watch movement, and comes installed with an automatic battery. The ring watch comes with a 28 inch long gold-filled chain for adjustable necklace, and comes with a [lobster clasp closure](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/watch-concept-1). The design comes in white, metallic silver and gold. Based in Newhaven, Connecticut, the ring watch is designed and assembled in the U.S. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.4/10 - Popularity: 29% | Activity: 65% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/jewelry) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Ring Watches:** The ring watch combines fashion and functionality, creating a disruptive innovation in the watch industry. - **Combining Fashion Items:** The trend of combining fashion items, such as watches and jewelry, provides opportunities for disruptive innovation in the fashion industry. - **Automatic Battery Watches:** The use of automatic batteries in watches presents a disruptive innovation opportunity in the watch industry, eliminating the need for regular battery replacements. ### Where This Applies - **Watch Industry:** The watch industry has the potential to innovate by incorporating ring watches and automatic battery technology. - **Fashion Industry:** The fashion industry can explore disruptive innovation by combining fashion items, such as watches and jewelry. - **Jewelry Industry:** The jewelry industry can benefit from the trend of ring watches, offering unique and functional accessories to customers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Japan-Inspired Wearable Watch Rings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stasto-stand-stones.md) - [Gold-Tonal Ring Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crw001g9jr.md) - [Miniature Digital Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dwn5600-nano-ring.md) - [Haute Fashion Digital Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/timex-x-mm6-maison-margiela-collection.md) - [Golden Luxe Digital Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mm6-maison-margiela-x-timex.md) - [Health-Tracking Sleek Wearables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ring-one.md) - [Micro-Sized Finger-Friendly Smartwatches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rogbid-fusion.md) - [Luxurious Smart Rings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rare-ring.md) - [Premium Fashion-House Smart Rings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/generation-3.md)
