Functional, elegant and a worthy investment, owning a fine watch is definitely not just a fashion preference but also requires some smart decision-making. As compared to other expensive pieces, watches hold and can potentially increase in value over time and finding the right one to put your money on is a purchasing vision we can all get behind. Not to mention that it would be a ravishing addition to a well-woven ensemble. So with all these factors in mind, you may be thinking which timepieces are worthy of the investment. Whether you're looking for new releases or old-time favourites, we've got the perfect selection below.


Solvil et Titus Ring & Knot W06-03133-001


SGD440/~USD325


Symbolising eternal love and harmony, Hong Kong-based watch brand Solvil et Titus welcomes this beautiful rose and gold timepiece to their range of gorgeous watches. Included in their Ring & Knot collection, all the parts of the piece represents an aspect of everlasting romance, from the diamond patterned dial to the oriental Love Knot design of the bracelet and the classic ring design of the bezel. Not only is it a beautiful gift for your beloved or a great piece to add to your own collection but it can also be the perfect heirloom to pass down for generations to come with its simple yet timeless design.


Klokers Midnight Blue KLOK-01



SGD879 and up/~USD648 and up depending on the strap


Fresh from its win from the German Design Award 2019 in the ‘Luxury Goods’ category, Klokers is greeting the new year bigger than ever with its signature unique dial and user-centred design. Our personal pick from its bestselling KLOK-01 line is the Midnight Blue variant because it brings a different kind of classiness into the table with its colour, balancing both a casual and a formal appeal. 


Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso


USD2,000 and up (chronext.com)


From its vintage appeal to its history of introducing the swivel mechanism into today's watchmaking industry, this beautiful unisex arm candy from Jaegar-LeCoultre is the fix for all your vintage-loving needs. Being one of the earliest sports watches ever designed, just one look at its stunning facade proves it to be a stylish and valuable timepiece worthy of investment even after years of being birthed in 1931. 


Rolex Submariner


USD7,500 and up (tourneau.com)


Known for its robust and luxurious design, this waterproof diving watch that can last up to 300 metres underwater has definitely sealed its place as one of the most bankable watches ever created. Give this piece an androgynous take (as it is originally designed for men) and you're definitely upping its value — style-wise — even more. 



Cartier Tank


USD10,000 up (chronext.com)


A timepiece with its fair share of history being the watch of choice by Jackie Kennedy, Princess Diana and Michelle Obama to name a few, it's no wonder why the Cartier Tank is one of the most classic and investment-worthy pieces of all time for women. Made with a platinum case material and embellished with a sapphire crystal, if you're looking for a piece that's still worth more than its been bought even after decades of wear, this one is for you.
