6. TAG Heuer Aquaracer Lady:
The 2016 version of the TAG Heuer Aquaracer Lady features a case and bracelet made entirely from ceramic. This innovative design means that the watch weighs lighter but remains strong, making it less prone to scratches. The TAG Heuer Aquaracer Lady in full black ceramic gives off a bold vibe and caters to a younger generation of fearless and powerful women. The dial houses hand-applied faceted indexes with blue & green luminescent markers. The polished steel screw-in crown ensures ease of use and adds a sense of character and variation against the all-black ceramic case. The unidirectional turning bezel with ceramic inlay further enhances the overall look and feel of the iconic timepiece. Simple, classic and utterly breathtaking, the watch just had to be on our list.
The TAG Heuer Aquaracer Lady collection starts from Rs 87,600.
7. Frederique Constant Classics Carree:
Taking a break from the line of sporty watches, the next timepiece on our list is the outstanding Federique Constant Classics Carree. As any watch enthusiast will know, Federique Constant is known for its classic watches and the Classics Carree is a true representation of the brand’s expertise and DNA. The rectangular shaped, steel and rose gold plated case combined with the burgundy croc calf leather strap perfectly brings out the Carree’s classic character. The simple yet timeless appeal of the dial comes from the large black Roman numerals set against the silver guilloche decoration. Winning our hearts, this watch is a classic that will never go out of style!
The Federique Constant Classics collection starts from Rs 41,900.
8. Michael Kors Bradshaw Smartwatch:
Rightly referred to as “the timepiece you need for the life you want”, the Micheal Kors Smartwatch is designed by Micheal Kors and is powered by Android Wear™. A truly sensational piece of horology, the Micheal Kors Smartwatch is, without a doubt, the perfect smartwatch for the 21st-century woman. With countless ways to customize your dial, the Micheal Kors Smartwatch suits your every mood and style. It features a “go-to mode” for all your needs from day to night, keeps track of your fitness goals and keeps up with all your app notifications from WhatsApp to your social media accounts. Aesthetically pleasing to the eyes too, the Micheal Kors Smartwatch has a face for every look and interchangeable bands that will always keep it interesting.
The Micheal Kors Bradshaw Smartwatch collection starts from Rs 25,995.
9. Breitling Galactic 29:
The Breitling Galactic 29 is a watch that is bound to be on the wrist of a woman to whom style matters but performance is equally important. The keen watch collector will, no doubt, notice that the Breitling Galactic 29 looks very similar to its men’s counterpart with little to no difference, but technically the Breitling Galactic 29 has more to offer. The 29mm steel case houses a matt-looking tungsten carbide bezel that plays beautifully with the polished case adding more depth to an already great-looking watch. An engineering marvel, the timepiece houses a date aperture at 3 o’ clock and a non-screw-locked crown. Powered by an official chronometer-certified SuperQuartz™ movement it comes with a water-resistance to 100m, which itself is a rare achievement for women’s watches.
The Breitling Galactic collection starts from Rs 317,330.
10. Chopard Imperiale:
When Chopard comes to mind, one cannot think of anything but jewellery. Therefore, it should come as no surprise that the watch that made the cut to our list is a jewellery watch. Belonging to a collection that’s an epitome of style, passion and confidence, the Chopard Imperiale in 18-carat rose gold is designed to perfection. The 36mm, 18k rose gold case houses a silver-toned dial with a mother-of-pearl inner circle. The see-through sapphire crystal caseback enables the wearer to witness the intricate workings of the self-winding mechanical movement inside the case. Always making a lasting first (and last) impression, the Chopard Imperiale plays beautifully with a diamond-studded bezel and a sophisticated combination of beauty and innovation. A timeless jewellery watch that is for the truly imperial.
The Chopard Imperiale collection starts from Rs 295,000.
11. Rado Hyperchrome:
Like most Rado watches, the Rado Hyperchrome Diamonds Plasma Ceramic is scratch resistant, hypoallergenic and is a joy to adorn on your wrist. It is one of those few watches where high-tech blends seamlessly with good looks. The 36mm case houses a 56 diamond-embedded bezel that surely stands out. Apart from great looks, the watch is also technically equipped with a Swiss made automatic movement that clocks in a power reserve of 38 hours. The Rado Hyperchrome Diamonds Plasma Ceramic watch is available in a plasma high-tech ceramic Ceramos™ bracelet that when worn on the wrist assures utmost comfort without compromising on style.
