His and Hers Watches: Matching Pairs That Work

His and hers watches have a slightly dated reputation, the kind of boxed set that used to sit in a department store window around Valentine's Day. The idea behind them is better than that image. Two people who share a life wearing watches from the same family is a small, everyday signal, more subtle than matching clothes and longer lasting than matching anything else. The trick is choosing a pair that looks deliberate on both wrists, rather than one watch shrunk for the other.

There is also a practical reason the idea has come back. Buy one, get one free offers that work across men's and women's watches turn a his and hers pair into the price of a single watch, which makes it one of the most efficient joint gifts there is.

What makes a pair look like a pair

Three elements carry the resemblance between two watches: the case shape, the metal and the dial. A pair that shares all three looks like a set; a pair that shares two looks coordinated; a pair that shares one looks like coincidence. For his and hers, aim for two or three. The one thing that should differ is size. A man's watch at 40mm or so and a woman's at around 30mm to 35mm keeps each in proportion to its wrist.

The pairings below are all built that way. The prices assume buy one, get one free with mix and match, the current Lucky Fours offer, and that both watches in a pair are the same price unless noted. Read the store's terms for how a pair with different prices is charged.

Pair one: the steel sports watch

His: Lucky Fours Caspian. Hers: Lucky Fours Lyra. Pair: $79.99.

This is the most closely matched pair in the range. Both have a rounded octagon case, an integrated steel bracelet and a horizontally ribbed dial, the shape of the steel luxury sports watch of the 1970s. The Caspian, the brand's best seller, is sized for a man; the Lyra is the same idea for a smaller wrist. Both come in emerald, ocean blue, black and pearl white dials, so the simplest pair is the same dial color on both. The Lyra also comes in a pink Rose and a turquoise version, if she wants a little more color than he does.

Pair two: classic gold

His: Lucky Fours Santos in a gold version. Hers: Lucky Fours Calista in Gold. Pair: $129.99.

The two most traditional shapes in watchmaking, side by side: a day date style watch with a fluted bezel for him and a rectangular tank style watch with Roman numerals for her, both in gold tone. They do not share a case shape, but they share a metal and an era, and together they look like a pair that could have been bought in 1975. If the Santos is the higher priced watch in the pair, the pair costs the price of the Santos under the usual reading of the offer.

Pair three: two tone

His: Lucky Fours Nassau in Two Tone. Hers: Lucky Fours Thea in Two Tone. Pair: $79.99.

Both are round dress watches with white dials on two tone bracelets, steel with gold tone. The Nassau has Roman numerals and a fine bracelet with many small links; the Thea has a rose gold tone and steel bracelet and a cleaner dial. Two tone is the most forgiving metal choice for a couple who wear both gold and silver jewelry, since each watch goes with everything the other person wears too.

Pair four: rose gold

His: Lucky Fours Wraith. Hers: Lucky Fours Venoria in Two Tone Rose Pearl. Pair: $79.99.

Rose gold tone is warmer than yellow and less common, which makes a pair in it more distinctive. The Wraith is an integrated bracelet watch in rose gold tone with a black ribbed dial; the Venoria pairs a gem set bezel with a two tone rose and steel bracelet and a white dial. His is sporty and hers is dressy, linked by the color of the metal.

Pair five: turquoise

His: Lucky Fours Jaxon. Hers: the Lyra in its turquoise version. Pair: $79.99.

A shared dial color is the boldest way to pair watches, and robin egg blue is the color that does it best: noticeable from across a room, and cheerful rather than loud. The Jaxon has a textured turquoise dial in a minimal steel case with a day date window. With the turquoise Lyra, the pair shares color and metal while the case shapes differ.

The Swiss pair

If the occasion calls for a heritage brand, the Tissot PRX is one of the few watches sold in sizes that make a true his and hers pair. The Tissot PRX 40mm at $450 and the Tissot PRX 35mm at $575 share an integrated bracelet design, the first in steel and the second in gold PVD. Together they cost $1,025 at list price.

Ordering a pair

Both watches need sizing, and they will rarely need the same amount taken off. Get both wrist sizes before ordering, and ask the jeweler to keep each watch's removed links separate. Check the store's shipping times against the date you need them, and read the return terms: Lucky Fours accepts returns within 30 days, see the store terms, and a return from an offer order may be refunded differently from a single purchase. Our explainer on buy one, get one free watch offers goes through how these usually work. For an anniversary, our anniversary watch gifts guide matches pairs to the traditional themes.
