Police watches are Italian fashion watches: bold men's models, often dark in tone, with metal or leather straps, that stand out clearly on the wrist. In our web shop part of the range can be ordered right away, and the rest of the catalogue can be sourced to order. If the piece you have chosen is not listed, write to us and we will check when it could arrive. As an official Police dealer, we give you a genuine watch with manufacturer warranty, and battery or strap changes are done by our own watch service.
What Kind of Brand Is Police, and Where Did It Start?
Police is a brand of the Italian company De Rigo. The De Rigo brothers started out making eyewear in 1978 in Limana, near Belluno. The Police name appeared on sunglasses in 1983, later on perfumes, and from 2003 watches have carried the logo too. You can see this background in the watches: Police mainly makes fashion watches, bold pieces, often dark in tone, with metal or leather straps, that stand out on the wrist.
Who Do We Recommend a Police Watch To?
To anyone who buys a watch not for the movement but because it suits their style. Most people choose it for everyday, casual wear, with jeans and a leather jacket, or as a gift for younger men. If you want a classic, understated watch, it is worth looking at other brands in our range.
What to Look for When Buying a Police Watch
- Most Police fashion watches are rated 3 atm: splash resistant, but do not shower or swim with them. You will find the exact water resistance on the product page of the model.
- A large case looks more dominant on a slimmer wrist than in the photo: before ordering, measure your wrist and compare it with the case diameter.
- For a metal bracelet, our own watch service can adjust it to the exact size.
What Price Range Do Police Watches Fall In?
Police belongs to the affordable segment of fashion watches: the price is determined mainly by the material of the case and strap, the size and the functions (a chronograph, for example). You always see the exact price on the product page of the model. You can find the other brands in one place on the brands page.
One more practical tip: most Police watches have a quartz movement, so if one rests in a drawer for a while, only the battery runs down and the movement is not harmed. If it has stopped, it usually just needs a new battery, which our own watch service takes care of before anything else is suspected.
