The wristwatch: overshadowed in functionality by the cell phone's digital clock, and eclipsed in the accessory realm by jewelry of all shapes and sizes. However, unnecessary as the watch has become, it's enjoyed a few popular iterations in the last few years—the oversized face, the handed-down-from-dad look, and the blogger's base to many an arm cluster.

Lighten up the silver and gold styles this spring with a few fresh takes on the ol' time bracelet. An all white Swatch would be your impending tan's best bet, while a dotted Kate Spade makes for a good addition to spring's black-and-white colorblock trend.
