Whimsical Watches for a Wicked Fun Halloween Night

Halloween is around the corner, have you prepared a Halloween gift for trick-or-treating, or are you still wondering about Halloween gift basket ideas? Are you ready to exhilarate Halloween night? Let me scream out my thought that I’m more than ready to uplift this wonderful fright in an eerie night. Over time, the Halloween tradition has evolved into more varied activities. Ever since I was a kid, I observed how the last night at the end of October became more diverse, blissful, and chilling.

The nights draw in, the cry of the owl, a chilling vibe in the air, spooky Halloween costumes, and dark decorations. Halloween is not only about the trick-or-treating where kids would go over one house to another to fill in their basket with sweets or anything they can receive. But we’ve also got other activities, like carving jack-o-lanterns, festive gatherings, eating treats, and donning costumes. And creating fun and spooky costumes are the most favorite thing about Halloween night.

I love crafting and designing my own Halloween costumes, letting my wild imagination create an iconic costume that some people won’t bother to take a second look. A spine-tingling, blood-curdling, and don’t-look-at-it scary Halloween costumes are my favorite themes to let the real Halloween fun begin. But then, I realized that I also need some adjustments for the watches that I always wear throughout my daily activities. 

Don’t ask me to take off my watch because that won’t ever happen. A watch has been part of my style and to strap my overall look I still need a timepiece on my wrist. So, the idea of looking for Halloween watches began.

Halloween watches for a blissful night

During Halloween night, I mostly spend my time having a Halloween party with friends — a ghostly party. Eating treats, lighting bonfires, playing games, or just spending the night telling scary stories. Although this might be an ordinary thing, a party is still a party where I need to pay attention to my look. An elegant watch is certainly not an option for completing the eerie style on Halloween night. 

Therefore, I would need watches that would enhance my image and light up the creepy appearance. It would probably be something in dark color with some orange tones, bold, and robust watch appearance. As a watch-lover, indeed, I also need to put some Halloween taste on my wrist. The presence of a rugged timepiece on Halloween night creates a vibe of something frightful in the shadows. And looking for Halloween watches would need me to seek further for the ones that truly matched.

To find the perfect ones, I’ve made some criteria to sort things easier. It’s night so I need clear legibility, that even a peek into the watch dial would tell the time. I would say skeleton watches as one of the best choices for perfect Halloween watches. It definitely exudes a bold and creepy appearance thanks to its impeccable design that brings the watch’s internal part into plain sight. 

The watch also needs to be simple as I might not need a complex complication for a fun night. All I need is an impressive appearance for a Halloween night that would complete my spooky style and perpetuate a cool-guy look.

A yellow pumpkin monster for a funky look exhilaration

A sharp tooth orange monster as a companion of unique and iconic Halloween costumes. It displays the fun of having a black and orange color scheme on our watch. This timepiece is a good choice for Halloween. The Seiko SRP311 ‘Monster’ doesn’t necessarily have a dark and fearless look yet it still looks robust when it comes to the durability of the watch. The whole surface of the watch is coated with PVD in black, resulting in more corrosion resistance. Further, it creates a stylish look and goes well along with my Halloween outfit. 

The hour markers are also shaped like a shark tooth and framed with polished steel. They’re also applied with LumiBrite luminous paint, providing clear legibility for the wearer. This Seiko is actually a diving watch but would be a good fit for my Halloween costume. Further, it comes with a reasonable price and I just love how it looks. A watch dial that resembles the gaping jaw of a slathering hellhound. 

A Big Bang Ferrari for a bold presence

I’ve designed my Halloween costume for this year and it falls for a gothic costume. Creating a Renaissance feel through a dark masquerade costume but still with a terrifying Halloween night. The color would dominantly be in black so I need a watch in a dark color that creates a strong presence once it sits on my wrist. The Hublot Big Bang Unico Ferrari is the only choice I thought best-matched for this concept. Well, a Duke or Count might not wear a fancy and sporty watch at that time but the Big Bang Unico is certainly needed for a stylish look.

It has a skeletonized dial that shows off the intricate and breathtaking inner design. The watch hands are also applied with red luminous material, creating a bold appearance for a tough and cool guy. In general, the overall dial design screams its harmony with a perfect combination of grey, black, and red color. The red stitching on its black Alcantara strap also makes a great pair for wholesome fun on Halloween night.

A skeleton watch for elevating an extravagant look

I know that watches hardly ever play a role in Halloween costumes but it doesn’t mean that they won’t make a great pair for the fun of Halloween. Looking from the name itself, a skeleton watch is the closest piece that every piece of them would look great as a pair of Halloween watches. Details often make a difference between a usual costume and the exceptional one — and this is what a skeleton watch serves for. 

The Orient Star Avant-Garde Skeleton Blackout has a dark finish that offers an impeccable sight of the internal watch movement — revealing the scary level of watch craftsmanship in working with intricate and delicate things. It also comes with a black leather rally strap with red stitching and lining, making it the best companion for Halloween. Orient also features its gleaming bezel with a full high satin polish treatment that would intrigue grooves and a rugged look. Robust, remarkable, and certainly reliable timepiece to strap a fantastic Halloween look, especially for skeleton costumes. 

As an essential fashion accessory, a watch would always be a good choice for a complete look. All I need to do is to find the right pair for the right attire and this goes as well for Halloween night. They might not be exactly called Halloween watches but they do resemble the vibes and images matched with Halloween chilly air. So, have you got your spooky piece to sit on your wrist?
