Michael Kors Golden Large Runway Double Glitz Watch

Spring’s flowers have bloomed and so have the trends for Michael Korswatches. This season, Michael Kors watches set in golden steel casings and tortoise acetate are officially in. Also known as the models that comprise the Golden collection and Tortoise and Horn collection, respectively, these sleek timepieces are exclusive to the classic American brand.

The Golden collection brings about a high-fashion sense to its wearers, exemplified by the Large Runway Double Glitz Watch. Every inch of golden perfection radiates with sophistication and glamour, with crystal insets on a rose gold bezel further accenting the gold dial. The chronograph displays a stopwatch and date function, and more crystal insets adorn the stainless steel watch strap. With a water resistance of 8 atm, this timepiece is a definite steal at the retail price of $325.

A great representative of the aesthetic feel of the Tortoise collection, the Mid-Size Tribeca Chronograph Watch also has elements of the Golden collection in its construction. The Tribeca has a similarly styled date window and golden stainless steel case, but the bezel differs in that it is composed of tortoise acetate and detailed with studs. The bracelet strap diameter extends 22 mm, with the case 43 mm across, and the entire piece resists water up to 10 atm. Lend a classy look to any outfit with the Tribeca, currently selling for $275.

The Mini-Size Tessa Three-Hand Watch is yet another effortless blend of the Golden and Tortoise essences with a unique shape of its own. Almost completely disguised as a bracelet, the Tessa’s rectangular case cheekily contains its golden face inside the constraints of the strap. The bracelet strap is made up of tortoise acetate enclosing links of gold stainless steel, providing a lightweight alternative to those who find conventional watch shapes a burden. At the price of $160, one may find this watch a lighter burden on one’s wallet as well.

The appropriately named Tortoise Show Stopper Glitz Watch stands in a league of its own, with a bracelet strap made completely from tortoise. This lends a rugged look and a deep contrast to the swanky rose gold bezel glittering with crystals. A dark brown ring encloses the mother of pearl face and three sub dials, and the date window and stopwatch give off the signature vibe of Michael Kors watches. Juxtaposing the fundamentals from the two collections so sharply results in a lasting impression, and at $275 the Show Stopper thus fulfills its duty.
