Wearing bracelets: 5 mistakes every man should avoid

Men's jewelry can be worn nowadays on appropriate occasions. However, there are exceptions to this rule. Professional dress codes can limit men's jewelry to the classic components of wristwatch, wedding ring, tie pin, glasses, and belt. Bracelets for men are, however, taboo in some professions.

In addition, bracelets for men can involve risks. A silver bracelet for men can interfere when operating machines. In many professions, no bracelet may adorn the wearer during work. Surgeons are not allowed to wear a silver bracelet for men in the OR. What cardinal mistakes should fashion-conscious men avoid when it comes to "bracelets for men"?

Mistake 1: Wrong material choice

Besides colorful surfer bracelets in the boho style or striking leather studded bracelets, men's bracelets are also enjoying great interest recently. However, men's bracelets have existed for a long time. Already in the seventies, bracelets made of three different metals were worn. For years, travelers in Kathmandu or on Ebay have been able to buy bracelets with Tibetan mantras. 

Often, such men's bracelets are made from impure metals as well as copper and brass. However, there are also more noble-looking bracelets made of silver or stainless steel. These have a significantly higher price due to the material value. Particularly popular among fashion-conscious gentlemen is striking leather jewelry. Leather bracelets are considered especially masculine. 

Bracelets found at Sprezzi Fashion already differ visually from those just mentioned. On the one hand, the men's bracelets with us are made of precious metals like 925 silver. On the other hand, they appear slimmer, simpler, and more individual and contemporary due to their restrained design elements.

Choosing unsuitable materials can appear inappropriate on suit wearers. Impure metals develop verdigris over time. Those who dress stylishly ensure that all metal jewelry elements match. A gold bracelet for gentlemen matches an elegant gold-rimmed pair of glasses.

Mistake 2: Wearing too many men's bracelets

Those who wear men's bracelets should definitely show style awareness. A silver bracelet for gentlemen is perceived as stylistically contradictory when worn with a leather studded bracelet. However, combined with a cheap surfer bracelet or a hand mala made of jade, it can also look cool. Both belong in the leisure area. The same applies if more than one silver bracelet adorns a gentleman.

Some colleagues might find the resulting jingling noise disturbing. Others see wearing multiple bracelets as a sign of excessive vanity. With every bracelet, men send a signal. This is unconsciously perceived and evaluated by others. If a beautiful silver bracelet is to adorn a gentleman, please stay stylishly with one or two bracelets in combination. 

Wearing many bracelets diminishes the impression someone can make with a men's bracelet. More than two men's bracelets may appear unmanly. Besides, a silver bracelet adorns gentlemen just as well as a single silver bracelet stylishly dresses a man.

Mistake 3: Not matching the bracelet to the watch style

If a bracelet is supposed to make men shine, it should match the style of the watch. A gold Rolex does not go with a cheap-looking men's bracelet. If a silver bracelet adorns a gentleman with a gold Rolex, it is perceived as a stylistic faux pas. Not every intentional style break works harmoniously. When a silver bracelet decorates men, all other materials should be chosen accordingly.

Does a single arm cuff make men appear unmanly? On the contrary: Often a noble arm cuff makes men appear fashion-conscious. If a simple gold bracelet adorns a man with style, it convinces fashionably. Golden arm cuffs for men testify to individuality, good taste, and appreciation of quality.

Mistake 4: Ignoring the size of the arm cuff

If an arm cuff for men is chosen too small, it leaves pressure marks. If the gold or silver bracelet for men is too large, it slips off the arm. Losing a valuable gold bracelet for men is both painful and avoidable. Moreover, an arm cuff chosen too large does not present men in a good light. It appears as out of place as oversized glasses or trousers that are too long.

The bracelets for men from Sprezzi Fashion are not open at the back by chance. This way, every bracelet can also adorn men with different wrist sizes. It can be slightly bent open or carefully bent together to make it tighter. 

This is how the noble arm cuff men adorn with taste and a sense of proportions. In addition, a silver bracelet makes men appear reserved in jewelry matters.

Mistake 5: Wearing the arm cuff for the wrong occasion

Can an arm cuff for men be worn at the wrong time? Absolutely! When a silver bracelet adorns men from a funeral home, it appears out of place. An arm cuff for men would also be inappropriate on a surgeon. The same applies if a silver bracelet makes men in senior management positions look flashy. That an arm cuff adorns men does not seem appropriate everywhere.

It becomes dangerous when an arm cuff adorns men who work with machines. In this case, the flashy gold bracelet can involve a man in an accident. Overly fashion-conscious employees could become unable to work as a result of an accident. In the worst case, an arm cuff for men worn at the wrong time can cost a colleague their life. 

Arm cuffs are pieces of jewelry that also look good on men. However, they do not belong in workplaces that involve accident risks.
