Watches these days are more functional compared to the spring-driven clocks, which first came out in the 1400s.
Aside from telling the time, modern wrist watches can count swim laps, determine direction, measure speed, serve as a calculator, and even monitor ovulation. Plus—a requirement for women—they spice up everyday ensembles.
Young stars Dimples Romana and Megan Young talk about their recent watch purchases.
Their brand of choice is Cherie Paris, which offers sophisticated face-shaped watches, elegant leather straps and chic metal bracelets.
"There are so many cute designs that it's hard to pick which Cherie Paris watch I want," enthuses actress Dimples Romana. "I decided on the Toulon [see photo], though, because of its elegance and simple style."
Megan Young, former housemate of Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Edition 2, chooses a Cherie Paris Laval watch [see photo], an oversized timepiece that adds some girly details to a boyfriend watch. It brings excitement to a jeans-and-tee get-up, and oomph to a dressier outfit.
"Cherie Paris watches are all very stylish," says Megan. "I don't even need to accessorize with bracelets because Cherie Paris watches are already gorgeous jewelry in themselves."
The new Spring Collection of Cherie Paris captures the vibrancy and warmth of the season.
Pair a colorful boho skirt and tank top with a Rennes bracelet watch, which comes with a free bangle. Casual Friday outfits work well with a La Rouge timepiece, available in myriad colors. Elegant garb is best with Beaune watch, which features tightly-woven silver chains with crystals. More Cherie Paris watches in any SM Department Store!
