In this blog post, we’ll take a look at five of our favorite Swiss luxury watch brands that are sure to impress your friends and family.
5 Swiss Watch Brands For Women
1. Rolex
Rolex is the watch brand that everybody knows. They’re definitely the most famous luxury watchmaker in the world.
Rolex has a huge selection of Swiss-made timepieces.
One of their most famous timepieces is the iconic Datejust watch. Rolex first made the first Lady-Datejust, a watch for women, in 1945.
Rolex also has a Day-Date watch, which was the first watch to feature the day and date on the dial.
The Lady-Datejust and Day-Date come in so many different styles to choose from. From yellow gold and diamond to a more understated Oystersteel watch.
Oystersteel refers to the highly valuable and high shine 904L steel that Rolex uses.
The Datejust below is their two-tone Datejust model. The two-tone, steel, and yellow gold, was very popular during the 80s and is now making a comeback again.
Then if you really want to go for a luxury, and very bling timepiece. Rolex’s Pearlmaster collection is it.
These watches are covered in diamonds. They offer these extravagant watches in either white gold or the rich Everose gold.
2. Vacheron Constantin
Vacheron Constantin is one of the world’s oldest watch brands. This Swiss watchmaker has not stopped making watches since 1755!
This Swiss watchmaker was always known as a watchmaker for women. Their first ladies’ watch released in 1889 caused a serious stir.
Vacheron Costantin today still causes a stir at times. As they have some very Avant-garde timepieces in their women’s collection. Such as their watch in the shape of a fan, or their other watch that looks like a mini belt fastened.
Yet, the majority of their luxury women’s watches are beautiful and timeless.
Especially their Malte collection, which was Vacheron Constantin’s first line of ladies watches.
The Malte watches have a very Art Deco look to them, with an unusual barrel shape (known as a tonneau). These manual self-winding watches even come with an exhibition case back so you can see your watch’s mechanical movement at work.
3. Patek Philippe
Patek Philippe is a luxury Swiss watchmaker everyone should know.
This Swiss watch brand is super exclusive. With Patek Philippe only producing 50,000 timepieces each year. Which makes the price go up, and up.
Their women’s watch collection is the Twenty~4 collection. Created in 1999, these are an elegant line of luxury dress watches.
In this collection, Patek has either round or rectangle case shapes to choose from. You can also choose one with a case that is set with sapphire crystals.
Their rose gold watches are especially beautiful.
4. Chopard
If you love diamonds (what girl doesn’t) then the Swiss watch brand; Chopard is for you.
Chopard is best known for its women’s collections. Their luxury watches and jewelry lines are always bursting with diamonds.
Their Happy Diamond watches have free-moving diamonds inside the watch. They can move freely as the wearer wears her watch, but are kept safe between two sapphire crystals.
The diamonds often look like they’re dancing. Hence why they’re named Happy Diamonds.
Chopard has been making stunning watches and jewelry since 1860. Chopard is also one of the few last remaining independent, family-owned watch and jewelry brands.
5. Audemars Piguet
Lastly, is Swiss watchmaker Audemars Piguet? This Swiss watch brand is best known for its Royal Oak collection. Which was the world’s first luxury sports watch collection.
Their famous Royal Oak sports watches come in a smaller size for women. These octagonal-shaped watches are very striking.
It’s a great choice if you’re after a Swiss-made luxury sports watch. A watch that has a bit of an edge, and isn’t something dainty or delicate.
The Royal Oak watches are tough enough to be worn daily and during sports.
However, you can choose one that’s a little more bling, by picking out one that’s made with sapphires all around the watch’s dial. They truly are beautiful timepieces.
Audemars Piguet also creates some Avant-garde timepieces usually each year. These watches are often extravagant art pieces for a woman’s wrist.
