Summer wedding season is officially in full swing and I’m sure most of us have started receiving a few invites already. But with the responsibility of attending a wedding, comes the absolute responsibility to look glamorous! From colour palettes to jewellery to ethnic clothes and matching heels and wedges, there’s always so much to plan and look forward to. However, my favourite part always involves visiting designers and discussing fabrics, embellishments, cuts, etcetera. But when I think about this, it is perturbing that most of our time goes delving into the nitty-gritty of the ceremonies, forgetting completely about one extremely essential ritual- “The wedding gift.”
Buying the perfect wedding gift is more crucial (and sometimes troublesome) than picking clothes. As most of the guests make a last minute mindless pick, some of us actually like to put in the effort to find something that not only has an emotional connect but can also be a significant part of their journey together. Flowers, perfumes, kitchen appliances, gold and silver coins, cash, linen for the new house, and artefacts, etc., feature on almost everyone’s list.
But then those generic items do not convey your love and regards for the newlywed couple. I personally believe wedding gifts deserve some thought. The other day, while I was out shopping I came across the exquisite collection of Luxury watches at Ethos Watch Boutiques and it was a matter of luxurious love affair at first sight. It was that moment that made me realize that what can be better than an elegant timepiece for a classy wedding gift.
While my heart went out to almost all of them, I managed to screen out a few of my absolute favourites for women. Here’s my list that will hopefully save you from the trouble of going through similar temptation and make an informed decision while buying:
1. GUCCI INTERLOCKING COLLECTION (MODEL#: YA133508)
The Gucci Interlocking G Collection has been designed by Gucci’s very own creative director, Frida Giannini. With an enticing range available for both men and women, it has an enhanced brand appeal and instant brand recall, courtesy iconic insignia of double interlocked G. The collection has pieces made in various different materials and dimensions. While pink 18 carat gold case would be a beautiful adornment for any woman’s wrist, stainless steel and PVD versions come across as an excellent choice for men. Different versions in attractive hues of black, brown, silver and yellow are sure to spoil you for choice.
2. MICHAEL KORS BRYN(MODEL#: MK6276)
Rose Gold is Michael Kors signature style in watches. However, this one is a unique contemporary take on the rose gold classic collection. What makes this watch the ideal gift is the perfect balance that it strikes between the standard round and a boyfriend size watch. Unlike any other, this timepiece boasts of a peach gold dial with golden indexes. It also has a separate smaller dial to mark seconds. The wooden finish on the acetate part of the strap makes it absolutely delightful.
3. OMEGA CONSTELLATION (MODEL#: 123.20.27.60.05.001)
Celebrated for its ultra-precise movements and elegantly refined cases, the Constellation Collection was launched in 1952. The ladies’ collection features elegant pieces in different sizes, metals, dials and diamond options to satisfy myriad needs. The stainless steel bracelet has steel and gold bars placed alternatively and is fully resistant to corrosion. Not just aesthetics, but the Omega Constellation is an excellent choice for those looking for utility. It has a power reserve of 41 months and is water resistant up to 41 meters, making it an apt option for water babies. This collection stands as the epitome of precision and luxury.

4. CARTIER TANK TANK SOLO (MODEL#: W5200003)
Inspired by the Renault Tanks used by Americans during the First World War, the Tank collection was created by Louis Cartier in 1917 and eventually launched in the markets in 1919. True to its inspiration, the collection has timeless pieces both in rectangular and square shapes similar to the proportions of the tough war-machine. The USP of this collection is the distinctively crafted bracelet consisting of rectangular links integrated with vertical sidebars. Owing to its old vintage charm, this piece will definitely make for a perfect piece of the family heirloom. Cartier Tank
