Watches have become the new must have accessory for men and women. They are no longer something that we wear just to tell time. We’re seeing many new trends in watches this year from large bold looks to classic clean lines. Read on to learn more about the newest trends in watches for women and men.
A popular trend we are seeing right now in women’s watches is the large over-sized face with a masculine vibe. The Classic by David Yurman is a great example of this trend.
One of the newest materials in timepieces is the use of ceramic. This material gives a very modern look to the watch. The Tag Heuer Formula 1 in white ceramic is a great look for the woman who is looking for a sporty yet fashionable looking watch.
A great look for summer is the Michele Tahitian on a rubber strap. This watch comes in a variety of great colors, perfect for summer and right in step with the looks we are seeing right now in fashion.![Michele-Watches-Tahitian-Large-Jelly-Bean-Chronographl[6]](http://alsonjewelers.files.wordpress.com/2012/04/michele-watches-tahitian-large-jelly-bean-chronographl6.jpg?w=640)
For the woman who wants a classic watch that never goes out of style, we suggest the Cartier Tank. This is the perfect watch to take you from day to night. Great with jeans or a cocktail dress, this watch comes in a variety of metals including, stainless steel, white gold with diamonds or 18k yellow gold.
Understated metals like stainless steel are hot right now for men. For the guy who is looking for a timeless looking watch, The Capeland by Baume & Mercier is a classic yet stylish look. 
Another trend we are seeing for men is the leather strap in brown or black. The Cartier Calibre is a very handsome looking watch which works well with jeans or a suit.
