Looking for Designer Watches? Ladies Watches - The Ideal Gift

Men give women jewelry for many reasons - and ladies watches may be the best choice in many cases. Why? Because timepieces are not only attractive, but practical as well; designer watches are appropriate for many relationships and occasions in which more traditional kinds of jewelry may not be. Fortunately, when it comes to ladies watches, there are many choices available at a wide range of prices.

A Short History of Ladies Watches

In fact, the first luxury watches were designed for women. Men had been carrying pocket watches since the 1600s, and these were practical tools for the most part - not fashion statements (in fact, railroad men were required to have good pocket watches, and these were inspected for accuracy frequently). The "bracelet watch" was an accessory among some women of the Victorian era; first appearing in the U.S. shortly following the end of the Civil War. It was probably not until the 1940s that wrist watches designed especially for women actually became popular among the general female population. Today, ladies gold watches by recognized industry leaders such as Citizen, Movado and Cartier continue to be popular as gifts.

Quality Luxury Watches From Around The World

Movado watches from Switzerland are practically the epitome of quality timepieces that feature unparalleled accuracy. Esperanto for "I move," the Movado Company offers over 100 different models of ladies watches; it is likely that with some many of these distinct, minimalist women's Movado watches to choose from, one could have a difficult time making a decision.

Citizen watches have also defined quality and reliability when it comes to timepieces; over the past eighty years or so, they have set the standards by which designer watches are judged. This achievement is all the more impressive when one realizes that country in which this company was founded - Japan - had not been industrialized for very long when the Shoshoka Watch Institute started operations in 1918. Twelve years later, the name of the company was changed to Citizen; their line of luxury watches has long defined quality timepieces.

Timely Gifts For All Occasions

Ladies watches are not only a great gift for wives and sweethearts, but also for mothers, aunts, sisters, and esteemed co-workers. Nothing acknowledges a job well done than the gift of designer watches, yet are not as personal as other jewelry such as rings, bracelets or necklaces. Such timepieces are available in a wide range of styles and prices as well. When the occasion calls for a gift that is at once of value, timeliness and appropriate for any occasion, one can never go wrong by presenting ladies' watches.
