Cuff Bangle Watch Bands

Definition of Cuff Bangle Watch Bands

According to Miriam Webster online, the most common definition of the word "cuff" is "something (as a part of a sleeve or glove) encircling the wrist". While the definition of the word "bangle" is "a stiff usually ornamental bracelet or anklet slipped or clasped on" or "an ornamental disk that hangs loosely (as on a bracelet)". These two words together define cuff bangle watch bands perfectly.

A cuff bangle watchband encircles the wrist just like a bracelet and often has additional baubles or adornment of some sort. In addition, the bracelet serves as a strap for the watch.

Leather cuff watches have also become popular with both men and women, although probably more so with men. Leather cuff watch bands are usually wider than a normal watch band and range from about 1 ½ to 3 inches wide. The popularity of this style seems to be increasing as more celebrities are seen wearing the cuff watch bands. Some of the celebrities who've been seen wearing the wide leather cuff watch bands include:

• Johnny Depp
• David Beckham (football player)
• Farell Williams
• Brett "Ace" Young (American Idol)
• Chris Daugherty (also American Idol)
