Wish-list Watches for Workplace Big Hitters

Accessories That Define Success

 

Elevate your office attire with these watches that exude professional success and style.Suave men and women know that it’s the accessories they wear to work that whisper of their status and confidence. Exuding a quiet self-assurance in the workplace is always more desirable than strutting in flamboyantly, unless you happen to work in a super-creative field such as the theatre, the arts or are a celebrity of some kind. Corporate attire – an impeccably cut suit, Italian leather accessories and discreet watches and jewellery – are the sartorial second fiddle to your professional qualifications. Earn that MBA, or step confidently up the next ladder on your journey to the C-Suite, and do it while perfectly attired and accessorised. A ‘good watch’ is such accepted shorthand for success, good taste and excellent judgment that we think it’s one of the most important things you can incorporate into your professional ensemble – a telling symbol of your ambition and successes to date.

The Laurent Ferrier Micro-Rotor Evergreen is a masterpiece of independent watchmaking, and exudes elegance and uniqueness with its alluring green satin-brushed dial and minimalist, timeless aesthetic. Inspired by growth and renewal, the Square and Classic Micro-Rotors are two of Laurent Ferrier’s most classic design. Both feature the ball-shaped winding crown. The round Classic is 40mm while the Square is 41mm. Both models come with a brown leather strap and matching Alcantara lining and are available in rose gold or steel. A perfect balance of restrained, classic design and a pop of sophisticated colour.

WOW FACTOR

Meanwhile, if you’re a big hitter looking for something with an out-of-the-blue ‘wow factor’ then how about investing in a one-of-a-kind timepiece such as the one by Speake Marin created for Only Watch 2023? This annual horologically themed charity drive has galvanized the watch industry to create one-off pieces for auction in aid of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. The Speake Marin Ripples Bleu Royal features a special calibre previously featured in its 20th anniversary edition and a distinctive blue dial that gives the piece its name. Instantly eye-catching, the dial colour is the result of meticulous blue physical vapor deposition (PVD) with a galvanic under-layer. A steel bracelet gives this watch a modern, distinctive look.

If you wish to quietly convey a sense of originality or discreet eccentricity, an unusual timepiece is often a great way to do so without alarming your direct reports. The MeisterSinger Primatic watch is an elegant, classical piece that has the slightly unusual characteristic of having just one hand to tell the time. Its 41mm case shows the power reserve and the single time shows the time in five minute indexes along the outside of the dial.
