Watches of Switzwerland is a large store on Princes Street which looks really up-market and expensive, which upon entering I realised was not just about the exterior. I’m not really a watch person because I hate the thought of having to wear the same thing on my wrist every day regardless of what outfit you’re wearing. Weird I know. So I was in this store purely for a nosey(me? Nosey?) and I saw some really gorgeous time peices that even I would wear on my wrist day in, day out. These watches are for the rich or for a one off, special occasion like a 21st because they really are pricey. Designer makes like Chanel are stocked which gives you an idea about the price. I absolutely love the white Chanel chunky wristwatch, but at around £3000 plus I doubt Santa will be bringing me it this year!

Watches of Switzerland is a very swish shop indeed, I’m not really into designer watches but I did get a nice understated Rotary watch for my 21st birthday which is very pretty and I feel happy knowing that it’s such a good quality watch. I still just wear my old Hello Kitty watch though as at if i break or lose it, it’s not the end of the world. My little Rotary doesn’t seem to compete with the big guns in here though and they stock an extensive range of Chanel, Breitling and Rolex just to name a few. If I was into watched I know that this is the place I would go and in addition to selling watches they also offer a repairs and battery replacement service. You can also get watches engraved here so ideal if you’re getting a watch to commemorate a special occasion or as a special present for someone.
