Sword hands are characterized by their broad, sword-like shape. They are easy to read and often found on sporty and military watches. The Omega Seamaster Diver 300M demonstrates how skeletonized sword hands can shape the design of a watch.

Baton hands are narrow, rectangular hands that are often used on minimalist and modern watches. They offer clear and precise readability. The Rolex Datejust uses baton hands to create a clean, elegant appearance.

Lancette hands derive their name from their pointed shape, which is reminiscent of a small lance. The 1815 from A. Lange & Söhne shows how lancette hands can add an elegant touch to a watch.

Losange hands are similar in shape to lancette hands, but the widest part of the hand is further towards the center. The overall shape is reminiscent of an elongated diamond, which perfectly suits the IWC Pilot's Watch Chronograph.

Abraham Louis Breguet is considered one of the most important watchmakers in history. The hands bearing his name are not only found on Breguet watches, but also in the brand's logo.
