I’ve bought a few watches in my day and I must admit that they are great gifts. Valentine’s Day will be here before we know it and if you are stumped in the gift department, why not go for a watch? They work well for both men and women and can last forever, with good upkeep.
Tissot makes some of the finest watches in the world and has done so since 1853. “Innovators by Tradition” is the brand’s signature and they do just that with designs that are unique, high-tech, crafted from special materials and which are both stylish and functional. They have an amazing array of styles to choose from at great pricepoints, making high-quality pieces accessible to everyone.
One of my favorites is the Savonnette White Quartz Pocket Watch & Chain (shown above – $275). Pocket watches have been a signature of the brand since its inception and I can’t get enough of them. They have such an old word feel and are such a great accessory to an expertly-tailored suit or even a tee shirt and jeans.
In the perfect red hue for V Day or to add some color to your most neutral ensembles, the Couturier Ladies White Quartz Trend Watch ($325) is just gorgeous. It is chic and elegant and the perfect watch to rock for the new year.
If you want to go for a splurge, the Lady Heart Ladies White Automatic Classic Watch ($850) is such a beautiful and feminine piece to choose. I love its fine automatic movement which is visible through a window in the glistening mother-of-pearl dial. A watch that a woman can cherish forever.
