Different Styles Of Women’s Watches


It’s rare to find a woman who doesn’t love jewelry. After all, it’s a generally accepted maxim that diamonds are a girl’s best friend, and that the way to a girl’s heart is paved with Tiffany boxes. We love necklaces and chokers, dangly earrings and pearl studs, diamond and ruby rings, delicate tennis bracelets and clunky, chunky bangles.
 
One piece of classic jewelry that we often overlook, though, is the timeless wrist watch. Ever since the Swatch craze died down, you just don’t hear much about women’s watches in the fashion press. And that’s a downright shame because women’s fashion watches are among the best, most utilitarian and most stylish jewelry pieces you can buy. From timeless classic wristwatches to fun and funky watches with interchangeable straps, women’s watches should take the forefront of the fashion jewelry stage.

 

What should you be looking for in women’s watches? Here’s a handful of the fashion and styles that you’ll be seeing in the stores and on women’s wrists this year.

Fun and Funky Watch Wardrobes

Why give one watch when you can give a whole wardrobe of watches? The concept dates back to the 1970s, when Timex came out with a single watch paired with seven different colored straps that could be swapped out — a different watch for every day.

Invicta has carried this tradition through in several of its women’s watch lines. The Classique from Invicta includes seven interchangeable straps in Hot Pink, Pearl White, Lime Green, Orange, Golden Yellow, Black and Sky Blue and a watch with a mother of pearl face and sixteen diamond accents. The Invicta Baby Lupah features seven straps in the same colors with crocodile embossing, and the Baby Lupah timepiece, a classic timepiece based on the Invicta Lupah watch for men.

Women’s Watches with Fashionable Straps and Big Designer Names

Wearing a famous name on your wrist makes a high impact fashion statement. Fabulous designers better known for clothing and shoes have put their monikers on some of the hottest watches for this season. Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana, Kenneth Cole, Calvin Klein — these are just a few of the high profile designers that have put their names on watch designs. Some of the hottest styles of the season include:

• The Gucci Garnet Accent Women’s watch set with 28 shimmering garnet gemstones set around the steel bezel. Got a January girl on your gift list? This is the luxury watch for her!
• The Christian Bernard 5th Stainless Steel Bracelet watch, featuring a stainless steel woven multi-link bracelet in highly polished silver tone
• From Kenneth Cole, a women’s Reaction Gold-tone Stainless Steel Chain bracelet watch, featuring a braided chain bracelet that rivals the hottest bracelets
• From Calvin Klein, a gorgeous oval watch case in brushed silver, matched up with a double link stainless steel bracelet

Casual and Sports Fashion Watches

One of the hottest upcoming fashion trends is to have a wardrobe of brightly colored sports and casual watches that are as much bracelet as they are time pieces. One great example of the trend is a trio of watches from Activa’s Sport collection. Each of the three features a round polyurethane watch case in bright blue, bright magenta and smoky topaz, with matching polyurethane straps. The sporty jelly straps and cases are candy-colored and completely delicious. They’re perfect for wear with jeans and sports clothing. The price is very reasonable — under $40 for three watches.

If you can spend a bit more, you can get a similar look and higher quality from names like Swiss Legend, whose Commander series features rubber straps and stainless steel case set with 206 diamonds around a rotating bezel. The quality is miles ahead, of course, in a watch that measures its abilities in “complications” that are well-known in the world of luxury Swiss timepieces.

Watch Colors and Gemstones

Renato and other watchmakers are stepping out with bold, bright colors that move beyond the strap choice and into the watch case and face. The stunning Renato Beauty Sapphire Diamond Alligator Strap watch comes in five different luscious color combos, each set with diamonds to lend their sparkle to the rainbow. Brown, black, pink, white and red watches each are lavished with about 1.02 carats of diamonds scattered across the face, logo clasp and lugs to blaze against the colored background. The numbers are diamond pave, and the logo on the clasp is set with pave diamonds. It retails for $2,385, but can be found for less than half that price if you keep your eye on the jewelry sales.

Women’s watches are more than just time pieces — they’re also pieces of jewelry that range from the casual and inexpensive to the very pricey and extravagant. With a bit of careful shopping, you’ll easily find watches that fit both your fashion style and your pocketbook’s demands.
