The first wrist watch was made in the early 19th century, but the idea did not catch on at first, most people preferring to carry pocket watches. However, by the end of the 19th century, soldiers, realizing the inconvenience of pocket watches in the field, began to wear watches on their wrists and by the 20th century, these became widely accepted. Now, wrist watches are rarely worn for their utility, being worn mostly as jewelry.
