Like an LBD, classic blazer or perfectly fitting coat, a watch is a timeless and incredible investment to your wardrobe. Not only a divine piece for functional reasons, but the right timepiece can elevate your jewellery stack in a heartbeat. Huns, you can invest in one classic piece or have a few on rotation, but the right watch will not only sharpen your wardrobe but enhance your jewellery altogether.

A great watch (in addition to your jewellery) will complement any outfit night or day. But, if you like to tailor your watch to your look, we recommend investing in watches with different style watch straps (between steel or leather), watch faces and of course size and style. With a few on our radar, we’re sharing 8 timepieces that’ll upgrade your jewellery stack and elevate your look overall.
