Swatch Irony Watch

The Irony family of watches from Swatch comprises a wide selection of watches with stainless steel or aluminum cases and in most models, metal bands as well. Irony watches range from high-tech sport and athletic models to jewelry styles. Some have automatic movement, which means that no battery is required. This type of movement is mechanical, wound by a tiny fly-wheel known as a rotor, and powered by the movements of the wearer.There are ten subfamilies in the Irony collection. The Nabab watch has a steel case, a black dial, and a massive brown leather band in two layers, for a very bold statement. The watch they call THE Chrono also has the large two-layer brown leather band; this model adds a stopwatch function.The subfamily called Big has three models. The Handwerker has an orange rubber strap, while Reflecting Numbers is blue aluminum and Work in Process is stainless steel. The Diaphane Chronometer comes in six very colorful models, and is both a functional sport watch and a fashion statement.The Lady Lady watches are, for the most part, more delicate in design. The exception is Star Illusion, which has a jewelry-style case, but uses the double-layer wide cuff band, similar to Nabab and THE Chrono. In this case, though, the band is red suede. Other Lady Lady styles have orange, pink or blue faces and bracelet bands. All Swatch watches are water resistant to 20 meters and shock-proof.
