Fossil Ladies Floral Blossom Watch

If there’s one month of the year when time just seems to fly by, it is January. You quickly become re-absorbed in work, and after the exhaustion of December and New Year’s Eve, you have probably slept much of the month away! Wouldn’t it be nice to give a loved one the gift of time for their birthday this January? Well, you can … in a sense ;-) . Watches are a unique type of gift among jewelry – a personal and long-lasting as pendants or rings, but so much more a practical than purely aesthetic gift. Every girl squeals about a new watch – and we think that every guy does too, in his own internal way! Today we are looking at some awesome watch gifts for January birthdays.

Men’s Fossil Weave Watch

DKNY Blue and Gold Tone Bracelet Cuff Watch

Wenger Men’s Swiss Pocket Watch

Citien Ladies Chocolate Dial Eco-Drive Watch

Citizen Eco-Drive Chronograph Perpetual Calendar Watch

Ladies Emporio Armani Diamond Watch

Wenger Aerograph Vintage Men’s Swiss Watch

Fossil is a very earthy brand … as the name suggests! They don’t get too technical, too modern or too fancy with either their designs or the inner workings of their watches … perfect if you’re buying for Capricorn loved ones, born on or before the 20th of January. Capricorns tend to be serious, strong, and very unaffected by the rest of the world … sort fo like the Earth and the trees themselves! These ultra-wide band watches at the beginning of the article and at right are perfect for Capricorn men and women this January – the ladies’ floral blossom watch is pictured at the beginning of the article; men’s at right. Both are water resistant to 50m and have a standard Fossil 2 year warranty, with an uncluttered three-hand analogue display.

Aquarius is the zodiac sign that takes up the rest of January,, from the 21st onwards, and these guys and gals are very different (yet in some ways, very similar!) to Capricorns. They also remain unswayed by what others around them say and do, but are much less serious, more experimental and always strive for originality. The DKNY watch at right is perfect for Aquarian girls – it is made in their signature color, indigo, with an unusual and original open backed cuff design. The watch itself is made from hardened blue resin, complemented by gold tone stainless steel. It will withstand accidental splashing, but not a prolonged Aquarian adventure underwater – not even in the sink!

If Aquarian guys go for originality in all of their activities, then you can imagine how this Wenger pocket watch will set their imaginations alight! It has a clip to attach to button holes or similar, so he needn’t fear that his normal activities will make it go missing. It has luminous digits for nighttime viewing, is water resistant to 30m, and made of the toughest materials on Earth :-) .

Citizen is a great all-round brand, with conservative styling that suits almost everybody, and a slew of hidden technological marvels … as in this Citizen chocolate dial watch, which despite it’s ordinary look, incorporates the patented Eco-Drive technology which means you never need to change a battery again. The front glass is a tough sapphire blend, and the watch itself features splash resistance and a push button deployment buckle. Brown is the signature color for Capricorns – we recommend this for the earthy, staid women in your life!

Citizen also knows how to mix things up, stylistically, and incorporate a little originality into their watches! Aquarians will love the striking black stripes on this Eco-Drive perpetual calendar watch, both for it’s unusual design and the freedom it gives them. The perpetual calendar function allows them to keep track of the precise time, no matter where they are; the 200m water resistance means that if your crazy Aquarian feels the need to dive off the side of the boat, he can, and the Eco-Drive capability means he’ll never need to worry about changing batteries. The price tag is very freeing for you, also!

Emporio Armani has a very definite, classical style for their watches, which conservative Capricorns will appreciate. These women have a great inner strength – echoed by the diamonds that mark the hours on the front of this watch. This beautiful, confidently styled watch is an investment … but one which your Capricorn lady will love to death ;-) . It is water resistant to 50m (splash resistant), and comes with an Armani in-house 2 year warranty. It will ship for free across the entire globe, as well!

Aquarians have a permanent soft spot in their hearts for anything that is unconventional, stands out, defies the norms of society, etc … and this yellow dial ‘vintage’ Wenegr Aerograph watch certainly stands out as different! It is not purely a fashion watch, however – Wenger are the makers of the Swiss Army knife, and all of their products are developed to stand up under enormously tough conditions. This watch ahs a long three year warranty and is 100m water resistant – okay for swimming, doing the dishes, etc.

We have an enormously varied range of watches on site – truly something for everyone. Check out either the men’s watches or women’s watches for a gift for your loved one this January.
