Luxury Wishlist - Watches

It's true that I spend most of my shopping time hunting down great bargains. However, I also take pleasure in ogling gorgeous luxury items. One of my particular passions is watches. I'm not a connaisseuse, I just like looking at pretty timepieces without looking at the prices ;)

Perrelet Diamond Flower Watch
This watch won the Public Prize at Montres Passion 2008. It comes in several colour variations. I like the contrast of the rubies against the white in this version.

Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Duetto Duo
A very elegant version of the famous Reverso watch. My favourite is the white gold with a satin bracelet.

Rolex Datejust 36mm
I've been admiring this watch since I saw it on the cover of the Rolex Magazine earlier this year. The pink version shown here gets points for cuteness; the silver version is more grown-up.

Franck Muller Ladies Tourbillon
A flirty take on the tourbillon watch. The playful look of the watch is refreshing yet chic. I find the version with the colourful numbers a bit dizzying, but this one is just right.

Lady Arpels Pont des Amoureux
Poetic Complications Collection, Van Cleef & Arpels
What an exquisite work of art! This watch is incredibly beautiful, intricate, and unique. The makers brought together the best of the best: white gold, diamonds, hand-painted dial, Jaeger-LeCoultre movement. Notice how the lovers kiss at noon and midnight ♥

  2. *sigh* "Le Pont des Amoureux" is definitely amazing. the only negative part is the price: $116,000!
