Watches - Rectangular face or Round?
Exactly that ^

What about watch size and wrist size? I have a small wrist and like watches with leather bands but I'm not sure on the size of the watch.

round always

I think you have to look at the watch overall. I've seen both hideous and beautiful examples of both. That said, I lean towards round faces, but that's because they remind me of my father and uncles.

Both can be done really well. Personally I prefer rectangular watches for nicer occasions and round watches for everything else.

Gruen is the best brand for rectangle watches.

I've also seen examples of "hybrids"

If you want to see a real hybrid watch, go look up Fossil's FrankenWatch.

I am more fond of round watches... I like a minimalist design, preferably a little smaller than normal bc I have a small frame. However, big watches are "in" nowadays.
Loud watches are fine for going to the club or for parties.. For daytime wear I'd go with something subtle.

Either is fine, just don't buy anything that makes you look like you just signed a record deal or got drafted by the Lakers. Something minimalist, without a gigantic face or tons of bling.
just want to share: this is my minimalist white watch and i love it http://imgur.com/CoKCc.jpg i got it for 6 dollars in a clothes market in singapore
That is one louuud watch.
i have a yellow glass version and i think that's better than the blue one.
contrary to these guys, I like your watch. Do you know the brand of watch it is?
thanks, man. i'm not sure of the brand, its pretty generic... it's only 6 bucks.
Does it get dirty? That's my biggest fear about buying a white watch.
well, in the end yes it does like most white watches but since it's just 6 bucks, just get a new one everytime it gets too dirty.
Ugly!
I think a watch (as a jewelry) should blend in with your style, not stand out. That watch is too white, stands out too much.
If you think stroud's watch is ugly at least present an alternative. Provided you're not wearing sports watches with business wear (see a suit/button down) I think that high contrast look is great and stands out in a way that isn't obnoxious.
What I hate are instances where people wear metal/more ornamental watches with plain tees or while playing sports.

hahahaha well it goes with my style if anything
I really don't like it. It looks like something some skater or wanna-be gangsta would wear.
