Mother’s Day is all important… and nothing says “Thanks Mom” or wife for all the things you do like giving the gift of time. That watch doesn’t have to break the bank, either. But it does tell mom that you have taken the time to go out and seek something just right for her — whether it’s a sport watch, a fashion-forward watch, or just an active on-the-go watch. Here we take a look at six pretty sensational — and affordable at prices ranging from $170 to $750 — watches for Mother’s Day that you can likely get at the last minute today or tomorrow.
Olivia Burton
For mom’s who love flowers, nature, bees and beautiful vintage wallpaper, turn to the Olivia Burton line of fashion-forward watches. Owned now by the Movado Group, the Olivia Burton line of fashion-forward affordable watches, jewelry and accessories was founded in London just about eight years ago by two young women who couldn’t find the styles they liked. The watches feature floral motifs, insects, bees and more, and retail for $100 to about $200.
Citizen
Perfect for mom who has a concern about the environment, this Citizen Cecii watch is a two-tone beautifully curved piece with a three-part case — with other ring depicting a C shape. This model is 32mm in diameter and is crafted in two tone steel with rose-gold tone outer ring and crown. The mother-of-pearl dial is offered with either four or 12 diamond markers. Making it even more alluring is the mesh bracelet. The watch is part of the brand’s Eco-Drive collection, meaning it is powered by light from the sun. $495.
Mido Baroncelli Donna
For the mother who loves a classic and elegant look without being extravagant, Mido offers the beautiful Baroncelli Donna watch in rose-gold PVD on stainless steel. The three-row bracelet is supple and rich looking. It is powered by a quartz ETA movement and has a double-sided anti-reflection treatment on the crystal. Eleven diamonds grace the dial. It retails for about $600.
For mom’s who love a designer look at an affordable price, take a look at the new Versace V Circle watches that offers playful take on the brand’s iconic logo design. The V Circle Logmania Edition features a leather strap with sculptured Versace name on it. The watch dial bears the characteristic and iconic Greca border and Medusa logo. It retails for $750.
Bulova Computron
Perfect for women who really love the vintage look and the concept of digital, the new Computron brings forth the nostalgia of yesteryear. Inspired by an archival piece, and part of the brand’s Archive series, the new digital LED Computron has a futuristic look to it thanks to the trapezoid shaped case. It comes in different hues of metal and with different color LED. What’s old is new again. It retails for $295 on strap, but the metal bracelet rocks it at $395.
