Amazing Watches for Motorcycle Lovers

Life has become fast-paced nowadays for everyone. Despite that, keeping up with that speed, being punctual, and being able to responsibly maneuver our time remains a desirable trait, or even a skill. Speed, resilience, and enjoying life on the fast track are only a couple of traits we associate with motorcycle riders. To accompany that kind of lifestyle, you need a reliable and durable timepiece that won’t betray you even in the most extreme circumstances.

Smartphones and other bigger time-telling gadgets are pretty inconvenient to use, especially on the road, and that’s exactly where a good wristwatch could be a time- and a life-saver.

Some motorcycle lovers might not even like the idea of wearing a wristwatch alongside all of their other gear and that’s rightly so. Watches can be big or bulky, on the heavier side, and ultimately very uncomfortable to wear, which is especially bad for bike lovers who love to spend a lot of their time cruising on their gorgeous motorcycles.

That’s why, to even consider wearing a watch, it must meet certain conditions. For example, it should be comfortable to wear and lightweight.

Since motorcycle lovers ride their bikes in a variety of weather conditions, the watch must be made out of durable materials that can take a beating and remain intact and useful. Water-resistance is therefore one of the prerequisites that a watch must also have.

While we’re talking about the weather conditions, it is important to note that a biker’s watch should have luminous hands and maybe dial as well, since bikers do ride both during the day and night, so it’s easier to read the time if and when needed.

To not cause any trouble for the bike rider, it should be fairly easy to tell the time at a glance. Another thing needed to fulfill that need is a sapphire crystal glass with an anti-reflective coating. Sapphire crystal is also a great material when it comes to scratch resistance.

Alternatively, some motorcycle lovers might just want a fashion piece that will suit their overall dressing style. In that case, we might be looking for a big, sexy timepiece with a leather band and biker symbols, or maybe a sporty-looking stainless steel watch. It all depends on the watch’s function and use, and the personality of its wearer.

With all these things in mind, let’s begin our journey of finding the best watch for motorcycle lovers in 2022.

Best watches for motorcycle lovers:

Moto Culture Heritage Racer

This budget-friendly Moto Culture watch seems like a great starter watch for someone just getting into bikes. Despite the low price, this wristwatch is made from pretty good materials.

For instance, stainless steel was used for the case and sapphire glass on top of the dial. The strap is made out of genuine leather and the stitching matches the colors on the dial – red and mustard yellow in this case.
