The watch has been a staple of men’s style for as long as we can remember, but it’s simpler, the bracelet has never really taken off the same way. Even though the bracelet has been around for around 7,000 years (long before the watch), it is still not considered an essential item for most men.
That might be about to change, as more and more men in the spotlight are wearing bracelets lately. Maluma, Timothée Chalamet, Henry Golding and others were seen sporting bracelets around town.

The bracelet is an extremely simple addition to enhance a look, show personality and adopt an incredible design. The bracelet will quickly become your new staple style, if it hasn’t already. Take a look at these choices and step up your accessory game.
Cuban Link Bracelet in Italic Gold
A Cuban link bracelet is an understated classic. It’s a simple statement piece that adds a sparkle of solid 14k gold to an outfit. This bracelet from Italic is a high-end piece to wear alone or pair perfectly with a watch. This one is only available in gold, so if you’re a fan of silver, you’ll have to look elsewhere.
Akoya Pearl Strand Bracelet
Pearls are becoming increasingly popular, with celebrities like Usher, Joe Jonas and Harry Styles wearing pearl necklaces. Pearls have been worn by royalty for centuries and celebrated for their uniqueness. This bracelet features organic South Sea Akoya pearls set on 100% silk thread with solid 14k reclaimed gold for added strength and everyday wearability. Wear them like royalty.
Bulova Men’s Classic Cuff Bracelet
If you are looking for something simple and refined, this cuff bracelet is for you. It’s crafted from sleek stainless steel and features an easy slip-on open cuff design for a streamlined look. The shape can be a bit polarizing, but it definitely stands out in a modern way.
Jared Natural Black Spinel Tennis Bracelet
Black is always in style, and Jared’s black spinel tennis bracelet will be with you forever. It is adorned with bold black spinel gemstones fashioned in sterling silver for added vibrancy and durability. The gemstones might be a bit too flashy for some, but the black on black makes this standout piece work.
Banter by Chevron Solid Pagoda Piercing
Even simpler than the Cuban chain link is the herringbone solid chain bracelet. Herringbone necklaces have become a staple for men, so it makes sense that bracelets are the next step. The herringbone chain is closer together than the Cuban, so it may feel a little tighter, but it’s more like a single piece. If you’re a minimalist, this one’s for you.
Tommy Hilfiger Braided Leather Bracelet
Bracelets don’t always have to be metal. This Tommy Hilfiger bracelet is made of genuine leather in the color navy. It also has a magnetic closure, so it’s extremely easy to put on and take off. Maybe too easy? If you don’t dig your wrist into things often, you should be fine.
Fossil Plated Stainless Steel Engravable ID Bracelet
If you are someone who wants to be personalized, this engravable ID bracelet is for you. There are stainless, beaded, and cord options for the style you’re looking for. Write your name, a word that’s important to you, or anything that sounds fun. It’s a great gift, although not everyone likes their name engraved, so make sure it matches their brand.
Ted Baker Matt Flat Top Bracelet
This Ted Baker bracelet is unique because of its matte finish. Not everyone likes shiny jewelry, so this accessory is perfectly subtle. Wear it with a similar blue for a monochromatic story or pair it with black or bright red for a bit of contrast.
Fossil braided bracelet in stainless steel and genuine leather
If you are hesitant to wear a metal bracelet, leather is a great option. It’s something that most men are already used to wearing in watch straps, belts, etc. Plus, it’s generally more comfortable than metal. This braided bracelet is made from black and brown leather, so it should go with almost anything. It’s more casual than some other options, but can be the finishing touch to a dressier outfit.
Roxanne Assoulin bracelet set
Looking for something bold and colorful? This Roxanne Assoulin bracelet set is sure to bring joy to anyone who wears or sees it. The enamel and gold set includes two styles strung with oblong or square beads in a variety of shades. These bright colors might not be to everyone’s taste, but if you can pull them off, you’re sure to make a scene.
