Time is precious. And when it comes to these five showstopping wristwatches, we mean that oh so literally.
Longines DolceVita
The DolceVita collection from Longines channels the exuberance of the Italian “sweet life” into a rectangular design that evokes the art deco flair of the 1920s. With its diamond-set steel case, silvered flinqué dial, and painted Roman numerals, the quartz timepiece is a perennial style winner. $3,675;
Omega Constellation Co‑Axial Master Chronometer Small Seconds
Available in June, the new Constellation Co‑Axial Master Chronometer Small Seconds from Omega comes in a sweet 34 mm stainless steel and 18k Sedna Gold package, instantly recognizable thanks to the model’s signature side “claws.” The diamond-pavé bezel, white mother-of-pearl dial, diamond-set hour markers, and small seconds subdial ring at 6 o’clock—elegantly set with diamonds—all amp up the glamour quotient of the timepiece. But there’s plenty of substance here too: The Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8802, visible through the domed scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, is one of the most respected mechanical movements in modern watchmaking.
