Trends In Time

Its time to put together a “wardrobe of watches” that will help you accessorise your outfits with suitable timewear. Fashion designer NARENDRA KUMAR highlights the hottest trends in timekeeping for spring-summer 2008

In Vogue
With both timekeeping and stopwatch functions, chronographs are regarded highly in watchmaking. Although they have been around for a while, the perfect time to wear one is now.

Casually Sporting
Livened with colour, sports watches today are designed for more than just games. They can be paired with anything from a tracksuit to the quintessential white tee and jeans.

Jewel du soir
For that perfect evening watch, seize the combination of mystic black, striking diamonds and sensual ceramic.

Power Dressed
Rubber straps have come of age and the new avatar of rubber certainly means business. Try the fresh combination of rubber and metal to complement any formal/ business attire.

The classic gold and leather combination in watches can also be contemporised by opting for metal in the colour du jour — pink gold.
