The Appeal of Diesel Designer Watches

September 28th, 2012

It is fair to say that you would need to have been living under a rock or marooned on a desert island to not have heard of Diesel. Indeed, Diesel is one of the world’s most iconic fashion and lifestyle brands and as such it can count on the likes of Colin Farrell and Britney Spears amongst its vast army of loyal fans.

As well as its bold advertising campaigns and urban-influenced designs, Diesel is well known for the quality and distinctiveness of its products. Certainly, there’s no mistaking a Diesel designer watch – they’re bold, often thick set, sometimes colourful, (but mostly in leather, black or stainless steel) and they nearly always sport an oversized dial which itself comes complete with oversized digits alongside the immediately recognisable Diesel logo.

Quite simply, Diesel wristwatches are loud and proud timepieces which deliver style and practicality in one glorious combination!

So, if you’re looking for a watch that is as stunning as it is functional then you really can’t go wrong with Diesel. Certainly, having one of its cutting-edge designs on your wrist will ensure that you are always able to turn head for the right reasons.

Of course, Diesel advise that you only purchase its outstanding products from authorised agents. This is because unofficial sellers often provide their unwary customers with counterfeit ladies and men’s Diesel watches; faulty, grey imports and second-hand watches that do not have the official Diesel warranty.

We here at Watches2u are fully authorised dealers who specialise in offering designer timepieces of only the very highest quality therefore you can be sure that the fantastic range of Diesel options we have available really is second to none.

Indeed, the fact that we are an authorised Diesel agent means that you can enjoy total confidence when you shop with us. To be sure, you can rest assured that you will not only be getting your chosen Diesel watch at an incredibly competitive price (we offer a ‘price match promise’ to make sure of that); you’ll also be getting the genuine article, as all of our Diesel ladies’ and gents’ watches come complete with the original packaging and documentation, as well as a full two-year Diesel warranty.

So, now that you know who we are and what we’re about, you can see that buying a Diesel watch from us will provide you with complete and utter satisfaction. Without doubt, our combination of high-quality products, unbelievably great value and exceptional customer service ensures that your shopping experience with us will be outstanding in every single way.

Round up of Some of the Summer’s Most Impressive New Designer Watch Releases

September 21st, 2012

One of the great things about designer wristwatches is the enthusiasm which the leading brands have for bringing out new styles and designs. Indeed, you could quite easily buy half a dozen newly released designer timepieces each year if you wanted to!

Of course, summer is a great time for new product releases and this year is no different. To be sure, many of the leading brands have been busy little beavers, releasing an abundance of new designer styles, features and colours to a very expectant market.

If you have a keen eye for new product releases then you may well have seen some of the new kids on the block for yourself. However, if your attention has been elsewhere over the summer (Team GB per chance) then you may well have missed out on the some of the key movers and shakers.

Fortunately, you can rely on us here at Watches2u to fill you in as we always make sure we have our ear to the ground.

Here are some of the releases that caught our attention:

Adidas watches
Adidas have been very busy with their watch releases this year. One of their key launches was the Limited Edition Melbourne watch, which celebrates 40 years of the Adidas trefoil logo. This beautiful timepiece really is a great testament to the company’s continuing commitment to originality, authenticity and creativity and is a fitting addition to its watch range as well as its brand as a whole. The Limited Edition watch is a direct follow up to the highly coveted Gold edition of the Melbourne model, of which only 500 were made and only 50 were released in the UK. Unsurprisingly, this model has now completely sold out; thereby illustrating how popular Adidas watches continue to be.

DKNY timepieces
In case you don’t know, the DKNY brand aims to encapsulate the fashion, architecture and culture of New York City in its products and therefore produces watches which allow consumers to go from day to night time in the blink of an eye (just like New Yoikers). To this end, DKNY have gone with the strategy that white is the new black this summer. Indeed, their range of white and classically coloured DKNY watches is already a marketing success as it fits in with the rest of their brand perfectly. DKNY also released new men’s watches this summer which are suitably masculine and befitting of the rest of the brand.

Michael Kors watches
Not to be outdone, Michael Kors released some classic pieces earlier in the season in the shape of their over-sized unisex designs, the MK8247 and the MK5605.  Both of these bold timepieces feature round faces with functional detailing in yellow gold and bronze. In contrast, their MK3178 release provides more of a classic minimalist approach as it has clean fresh face which is intended to appeal to those who like their timepices to be simple affairs.

Buying a Designer Watch for your Special Lady

September 16th, 2012

There was a time when wristwatches were seen as being a predominantly male accessory. Indeed, gents’ watches were practical devices that enabled men to keep track of time whilst they were out exploring the world and building empires. Of course, times have changed drastically and ladies now enjoy the luxury of wearing a beautiful designer timepiece on their wrist every bit as much as men.

So, if you are a man who is looking to get your special lady a gift; a designer watch could well be the perfect option. However, ladies are very much spoilt for choice when it comes to designer watches these days, so you may find choosing one to be something of a difficult task.

Fortunately, such difficulties can be easily overcome if you heed the following handy snippets of advice:

Accurate representation
Perhaps the most important aspect to get right is that of ensuring the watch you buy will accurately reflect you lady’s style and personality. For example, if your special someone has an extrovert nature then you will likely need to choose a watch which is immediately attractive and demands attention. Conversely, if your lady has quite a reserved personality then a less ostentatious watch may well be more representative.

DKNY watches, Diesel timepieces…
Many ladies these days have a loyalty to one or two particular fashion brands. This is not a problem though as many of today’s leading fashion designers produce superb ranges of designer timepieces. For example, popular ladies brand names like Emporio Armani, Diesel and DKNY have offerings which are of the very highest order so you should consider these first, especially if you know for sure that your gal has a soft spot for their products. Of course, there may also be some designer brands that your partner is averse to so make sure you are aware of this before you become tempted to make any kind of educated guesses.

Active lifestyle
If your lady is a gym bunny or outdoors type then the watch you buy will need to reflect this. Practically all designer wristwatches these days are designed to withstand general everyday use so they will normally be more than up to the task of accommodating running and cycling activities. In addition, many ladies timepieces are also waterproof so your special gal will be able to wear it in the shower after she has finished her workout. If your partner is into more extreme sports (e.g. rock climbing, snorkelling) then you may well need to look at timepieces which are specifically designed for these purposes.

Following the above advice will help you to find the perfect designer watch from the many ladies options that are now so widely available.

But don’t buy a designer watch from just anyone – buy your gift from us here at Watches2u. That way you can enjoy the peace of mind that comes from knowing your purchase is 100% genuine and will come complete with the manufacturer’s own warrantee.

Celebrity Style without Celebrity Price Tags

September 10th, 2012

Like many other people, you may like to follow the fortunes of celebrities and emulate the fashions and styles which they wear. Indeed, Premier League footballers, Hollywood A-listers and popular music artists always look fantastic when they are snapped by paparazzi partying at Chinawhite’s or attending a red carpet event in Leicester Square.

Of course, the main reason why these celebrities always look so fantastic is that they can afford to. Certainly, many of the footballers, actors and musicians you see on the front (and back) of your newspapers each day make more money in a week than most people earn in a year. This means that they are able to sport the most attractive bespoke clothes, the most beautiful diamond earrings and the most impressive designer wristwatches that money can buy.

Naturally, it is difficult to reproduce the look of these celebrities if you do not have an income which equates to a brand new Ferrari every month. However, whilst coloured diamond jewellery and tailor-made Louis Vuitton clothes may well be beyond your budget, designer watches are not.

In fact, it is quite possible to source affordable designer timepieces that are beautiful enough to grace the wrist of any A-lister when you know where to go.

And the fact that you’re reading this blog suggests that you’re already in on the secret.

Indeed, if you want to emulate the style of your favourite celebrities without taking out a second mortgage then you’ve come to the right place. Here at Watches2u, we are passionate about beautiful designer watches for men and women and believe wholeheartedly that they shouldn’t be the preserve of people who get paid inordinate amounts of money to kick a ball around, mime to a backing track or pretend to be someone else.

After all, you work hard too and deserve to enjoy a touch of decadence in your life which will make you feel significantly more glamorous when you go for your own nights out on the town or attend formal social gatherings. Indeed, wearing a beautiful designer timepiece along with some glam attire can help to make you look and feel every bit as special as the celebs you see so often in the pages of ‘Heat’ and ‘Hello’.

This is why we go out of our way to offer such excellent value for money on our products. Indeed, when you come to us looking for super-stylish designer timepieces, you can rest assured that you will be presented with some of the most competitive prices available.

In fact, we’re so confident in the value of our ladies and gents watches that we even run a price match policy. This means that if you see one of the watches we stock cheaper elsewhere online, we will beat the other retailer’s price on a like-for-like basis.

So, if you want to look like a celeb without paying through the nose for the privilege, look no further than us here at Watches2u.

DKNY Designer Watches for Ladies and Gents

September 2nd, 2012

When it comes to buying a designer watch, you can’t do much better than the beautiful offerings that are available from DKNY. In addition to being one of the world’s most iconic high-end fashion brands, DKNY make exceptional designer timepieces for both men and women.

Masculine & feminine
Naturally, men and women have very different tastes when it comes to watches. To be sure, men generally like to extol their masculinity by opting for substantial, chunky timepieces which come complete with a selection of accompanying bells and whistles.  Ladies on the other hand normally prefer their wristwatches to be small and understated as they are far more graceful and feminine. DKNY have kept these requirements very much in mind as their designer timepieces immediately exude masculine and feminine virtues in a very classy and stylish way.

For the ladies…
Every fashion-conscious girl knows that DKNY is a label which is inspired by the ‘Sex and the City’ type glamour of New York. Indeed, their designer watches are like beautiful handbags – you’ll need a different one to match all your outfits! Fortunately, this is not a problem as the range of ladies’ DKNY watches currently available is nothing if not comprehensive. Certainly, if you are someone who enjoys shopping then you will have a field day when looking for a DKNY watch. With everything from large crystal-encrusted faces to small, delicate offerings; DKNY have super-stylish timepieces available to suit all tastes and budgets.

And for the gents…
If you are a gentleman who is looking for a classy designer timepiece then you needn’t feel left out. Certainly, the range of men’s DKNY watches is every bit as varied as the ladies’. For instance, DKNY offer casual yet beautiful wristwatches which are perfect for wearing on an everyday basis. As well as looking effortlessly cool, these elegant designs are as reliable and functional as they come. In addition, DKNY also have a selection of chronograph timepieces and dress wristwatches which are perfect for more formal occasions. However, whilst DKNY wristwatches may purport to be either ‘casual’ or ‘dress’; they can easily be dressed up or down to suit all occasions.

The finishing touch
As with all other top designer watch brands, you can choose to have either a bracelet or a strap (typically leather) fitted on your DKNY designer watch.  Bracelets are always a popular choice as they are very durable and hard-wearing; therefore they do not need to be replaced very often. The only negative aspect of bracelets is that they sometimes need to have to links taken out of them to achieve a perfect fit. Although leather straps are less hard-wearing than bracelets, they can look very cool indeed when they are fitted to a suitably stylish timepiece.

So, if you are looking to buy a classy casual lady’s watch for yourself or a fantastic formal gent’s timepiece as a gift; look no further than the beautiful offerings available from DKNY.

Guess Where You Can Buy Great Designer Watches…

August 28th, 2012

The Guess company was founded in Los Angeles in 1981 as a clothing line. They were famous throughout the 1980s for their striking black-and-white adverts, many of which have won Clio Awards (awarded for creative excellence in advertising and design), and they have had numerous supermodels model their clothing, including Claudia Schiffer and Eva Herzigova.

Originally famous for their designer jeans, the brand started venturing into other sectors as competitors like GAP and Calvin Klein gained in popularity. Nevertheless, Guess designer watches were first launched as early as 1984, and on the 20th anniversary in 2004, the company launched a special-edition Guess watch. In 2007, they then went on to launch the GC watch collection, which featured the eye-catching designer watches that had started to become fashionable.

Make It Official

When looking to buy men’s or ladies’ Guess watches, you should always make sure you buy from an official retailer, such as Watches2U.com. A real Guess watch will include a two-year Guess warranty and come in the correct pouch packaging, adorned with a silver heart engraved with the word ‘GUESS’.

While you may sometimes be tempted to opt for a fake watch because it comes with a cheaper price tag, remember that genuine Guess watches are made to the highest standards when it comes to quality and attention to detail, so you’ll be getting a fabulous designer watch that will stand the test of time.

Something for the Men

We stock the full range of watches by Guess, and our men’s collection has something to suit every taste. Whether you’re looking for a watch with a leather or silicone strap or a stainless steel bracelet, chronograph or simple, there’s a watch out there for you.

There’s also watches in every colour – from the gold stainless steel Spectrum chronograph watch to the vibrant red Web multi-function sports watch, there are also watches available in silver, black, brown, blue, yellow and white, plus many more. Guess pride themselves on staying on top of the trend tree, so you’ll be sure to get an up-to-date and stylish watch when you choose Guess.

And Now for the Ladies

For ladies who like a bit of bling, Guess watches are the perfect choice. Just as with the men’s watches, you can choose between gold and silver-coloured bracelets, although there are other beautiful choices of colour, such as the Vista pink watch, the Spectrum Tortoise Look watch or the G Spin Turquoise watch.

Many of the ladies Guess watches also incorporate diamantes, around the watch face and/or along the bracelet. If you want to show off to everyone that you’ve got a gorgeous Guess watch, then go for something like the Little Party Girl white watch, which has the name emblazoned across its face in crystals, or the Autograph Mirror silver watch, which spells out the name in diamantes across the stainless steel shiny silver bracelet and face in big, bold letters. Alternatively, many of the designs incorporate the letter ‘G’, including the G4G watch, available in silver and gold tone versions, and the G2G Bangle watch, also available in silver and gold.

Getting the perfect watches for your summer holiday

August 21st, 2012

You might love jetting off on holiday. Trips away mean you get to escape the stresses of everyday life for a week or two and enjoy some rest and relaxation. Also, you can experience new things and see different sights.

Of course, before you head off, it’s important to make sure you have all the items you need to take with you. As well as your clothes, swimming gear, electrical converters and so on, you might benefit from ensuring you have the ideal watch. Stylish gents’ and ladies’ watches can make the perfect addition to holiday outfits and of course you’ll need to be able to tell the time while you’re away. Also, if you’re planning to laze about on the beach or by a pool, you may need waterproof timepieces.

Brits escaping the weather

If you’re planning to set off on your summer vacation soon, you’re not alone. According to figures produced by ABTA, millions of people are heading out of the UK in search of sun and warmth. It noted a 20 per cent rise in holiday searches in June and estimated that, between the start of July and the end of August, up to 13 million UK consumers will have taken trips overseas.

Up to 90 per cent of these adventures will  be to countries around the Mediterranean, where it’s possible to take advantage of cheaper prices due to eurozone troubles and a strong pound, which has increased in value against the euro by ten per cent over the last 12 months.

No surprise

Commenting on the high numbers of holiday bookings, head of communication at ABTA Victoria Bacon said: “The UK is a beautiful country with exceptional holiday appeal but the weather this year has been setting records for all the wrong reasons and it is no surprise that millions of us are looking to head off overseas for more reliable weather and high temperatures.”

In a word of advice to holidaymakers, she added: “It’s important that people book sooner rather than later as late offers are proving popular.”

Get your watches here

So, if you’re keen to invest in new Emporio Armani watches, Diesel watches and other products like this, now’s the time to do it. Here at Watches2u, we offer a whole range of items that might be perfect for you.

For example, you won’t struggle to find waterproof versions that are ideal when you’re splashing about.

Male fashion coming to the fore

August 15th, 2012

In the past, fashion tended to be seen as something mainly for women, and men just stocked up on functional clothes and accessories. However, the times are changing and something of a revolution has taken place in the world of male shopping. These days, it’s not only the case that fellas are able to find superb garments and accessories to wear, they’re actually expected to.

Men have to look their best when they’re at work, socialising with friends, out on dates or virtually anywhere else. To help ensure your image is up-to-scratch, you might be keen to invest in stylish new men’s watches. These items are perfect if you’re keen to appear stylish and successful.

Men are buying more

It’s tended to be women who’ve splashed out on fashion items, but it seems men are fast catching up. Indeed, a recent study of male consumers aged 18-35 conducted by MyVoucherCodes.co.uk revealed that the respondents went clothes shopping an average of around 15 times a year and shelled out in the region of £658.

Meanwhile, it was even found that men are hiding some of their purchases from their partners in case their other halves are annoyed about how much they’ve spent. This is a far cry from times gone by, when men were often dragged by girlfriends and wives into shops to stock up on garments.

Breaking the stereotypes

Responding to the findings, chairman of MyVoucherCodes.co.uk Mark Pearson said: “We are always interested in finding out more about the buying habits of people across the UK, and this research was certainly insightful.

“Typically, stereotypes point towards women as being more likely to hide clothes, so it is interesting to see that a large percentage of men also keep their new purchases under wraps.”

Come here for the best watches

No outfit is complete without the perfect designer watches for men. These items have a certain air of authority and they can help ensure you look the part.

You might be worried that stocking up on products like this will break the bank, but as long as you’re savvy, you can access great deals. Here at Watches2u we offer an array of items that might be perfect for you and we go out of our way to make sure they’re competitively priced.

No need to wait

Once you’ve bought your men’s Timex watches, you’ll no doubt want to get your hands on the items as quickly as possible.

It’s true that some internet retailers seem to take an age to despatch their goods. However, we’re fully aware of the need for speed and we aim to get all the orders we receive before 4pm Monday to Friday out the same day. Because of the manual fraud checks we run on each payment, this is not always possible, but you can rest assured you won’t have to wait long until your watch of choice arrives at your door.

Also, our standard delivery to UK addresses is free, meaning you can save yet more cash.

Your own taste of celeb glamour with designer watches

August 10th, 2012

When it comes to style and glamour, footballers and their wives have it in abundance. Let’s face it, they’re not short of a few bob, and they’re often pictured living the highlife with all the best clothes and accessories.

Of course, you might not quite be able to match the budgets of celebs like this, but this doesn’t mean you can’t use them as inspiration. By being savvy, you can get your own taste of the luxury lifestyle. For example, you can invest in top-quality designer watches. As long as you know where to look, you can get your hands on the best timepieces around without busting your budget in the process.

Jamie and Louise Redknapp don matching watches

Ex Liverpool and England footballer Jamie Redknapp and his singer and TV presenter wife Louise were recently snapped in New York wearing matching outfits, even down to their watches. The pair each had on white tops, while he wore green shorts and she sported a green skirt, the Daily Mail reports.

As well as accessorising with sunglasses, the duo also had silver coloured timepieces adorning their wrists. These were the perfect addition to their chic but casual ensembles, showing just how versatile the products can be.

Catching up with pals

The husband and wife team met up with a friend for a spot of lunch. Of course, being the Redknapps, this was no ordinary rendezvous. They caught up with fellow international star Michael Ballack. The German footballer sat down with Jamie and Louise in the Meatpacking district of the Big Apple and the tree amigos looked at ease in each other’s company.

Commenting on this, the Daily Mail said: ‘All three were in relaxed form as they chatted and watched passers-by from their outside table.’

Celebrity style without the price tag to match

If you’re keen to emulate the style of the world’s rich and famous without going bankrupt in the process, you’ve come to the right place. Here at Watches2u we’re passionate about gorgeous watches for men and women and think you shouldn’t have to spend the earth to get hold of products like this.

We’re so confident in the value of our items that we even run a price match policy. This means that if you see one of the watches we stock cheaper elsewhere online, we will beat the other retailer’s price on a like-for-like basis.

Of course, there are certain restrictions on this. For example, the product must be in stock and brand new at the alternative retailer’s website and the product has to be identical. Also, we don’t price match against EBay listings, clearance items or websites that are not UK official dealers.

If you’re keen to find out more about this price match policy and see our full range of products, just take a look around the rest of our website.

The expert noted that individuals have access to an unprecedented range of products and can also make the most of parcel delivery services, meaning the items they order can be with them in a matter of days.
