Michele’s whimsical Garden Party designs recall their history as a children’s watchmaker. Originally the result of Belgian Maurice Barouh’s passion for fine watch mechanics, Michele was officially founded by his son, Jack Barouh, in 1995. Jack Barouh named his new watch manufacturing company after his daughter, Michele, after gaining experience selling children’s watches. Today Michele continues to combine the best of European engineering and American style with their innovative women’s watches.

Part of major watch manufacturer Fossil, Michele Watches is known for their diverse and unique collections of women’s watches. Their emphasis on style is evident in the play of shape and color in their watch designs. Paired with Swiss engineered movements, Michele watches are a great choice for fashion and quality.

Looking for a luxury watch for yourself or a significant other? Figuring out which brand and style can be a daunting task. It is important to find a watch that meets your sense of style that represents you well. For Michele Watches, one way this luxury brand helps consumers choose the perfect watch is through Trunk Shows held at high-end department and jewelry stores each year. For the month of February, Michele Watches will be featured at Trunk Shows primarily in Florida, with stops in Indianapolis, New York, and Palo Alto, California.

Michele Watches can trace its history back to the 1940s in Belgium with watchmaker Maurice Barouh. Maurice passed on his expertise to his son Jack. When Jack and his wife Rita had a daughter, Michele, this lead to Jack designing children’s watches. In 2000, Michele Watches was officially launched as a brand. Based in South Florida, the firm has featured Michele Barouch (for whom the brand is named), as creative director. In 2002, her brother Jeremy joined the company on the business side, making Michele Watches a truly family affair. In 2004, Michele Watches was acquired by Fossil, although the Barouch family still runs the brand.

Michele Watches runs Trunk Shows, a way to view the latest timepieces and accessories as well as speak with Michele sales experts. Occasionally, Michele Barouch herself will be present at these shows. One of the highlights of the Michele Trunk Shows is the opportunity to see and purchase items that are exclusive to the show and not available anywhere else. Some of the pieces that are exclusive to the upcoming 2012 Michele Trunk Shows include timepieces in the Caber Diamond, CSX-36, Jetway, and Sport Sail Collections.

On February 24 the Michele Trunk Show will be held at Bloomingdale’s in New York, followed by a show the next day at Bloomingdale’s in Palo Alto, California. The full list of upcoming trunk shows can be found on the Michele website.

As you may think about purchasing a watch from one of Michele Watches’ collections, consider attending a Michele Trunk Show. The Michele Watch experts will be able to help you, and the exclusive timepieces at the show aren’t available anywhere else.

Those of you not familiar with Michele should certainly update yourselves! Michele Watches was founded in Belgium in 1940 and Maurice Barouh believed “that a watch is not merely a timepiece but an expression of life.” His belief in quality and refinement was passed on to his son Jack, who named the company after his daughter. The company originally started out making children’s watches but after great success decided to expand. The third generation of the family, Michele and Jeremy, have kept true to the beliefs, quality and details their grandfather was passionate about. The launch and success of the CSX Diamond chronograph Michele watch brought the company into the U.S. spotlight.

If you have never seen a Michele watch, attending the trunk show will be a pure delight! Michele watches come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Maybe you prefer diamond cases? Or perhaps the natural mother-of-pearl dial? One of their watch premiers includes the blue-faced Sport Sail Square Large watch with a stainless steel bracelet. Bold, yet subtle. All of their designs are desirable and artistic. They will definitely appeal to those individuals who love fashion as they are recognized as one of the leading fashion brands. The supplies Michele uses for the straps are drawn from many different resources. The collection of straps on Michele watches are known for their blend of quality and color. Michele makes sure their brand is aware of shifting fashion and changes in the industry. These new styles are introduced into their collections through a wide array of materials and designs. This blend is truly a work of magic.

Michele, the Florida based manufacturer of luxury watches, has created a new spirited line to add more color to the brands trendy timepieces.

Michele chronographs have always incorporated color in a variety of styles and sizes. Although their new line ‘The Tahiti Jelly Bean Watch’ was released targeting a younger generation it continues with the flair that has made Michele famous. Inspired by the ‘Tahitian Ceramic Line’ they use bright colors making these chronographs a must have for the fashion conscious. These timepieces are available in an irresistible range of colors, are water resistant to 5 atmospheres, sport a distinct 40mm case with a bright strap and bezel. It is obvious the watch was created in the spirit of a Florida summer and its colorful surroundings. This watch is evident of the brands continuing appeal and international recognition.

Another brilliant idea that Michele has come up with, can be accessed on their 2012 website. The “Create your own Timepiece” link, allows you to assemble your chronograph from an almost limitless pool of styles, sizes and colors. Michele has streamlined the process and guides the user throughout the assembly which starts with the case. You also have a running total before you ever get to the checkout, which also aids in creating your custom built timepiece with no surprise total accruing. The ability of a potential client logging on and creating their own watch from Michele’s database is evident of the brands commitment to the young and fashionable as well as the brands desire to remain an international competitor.

Michele watches have been distributed by FOSSIL, a Texas based distributor, for a number of years. This company has enabled Michele to increase its footprint throughout Asia and Europe. Jack Barouh, President of Tempus, which holds the business license for Michele, said “Michele watches and Fossil share a similar dedication to the industry in which our reputations have been built. We look forward to growing our brand with the resources Fossil brings to the table.” This relationship has paid off for Michele who has seen an increase of annual sales in the double digits globally in 2010.

The end of 2011 has brought Michele some interesting results with their ‘Trunk Shows’ that are hosted at select store locations. These are great venues where you can view the latest Michele products and accessories. You can also talk with Michele representatives and see exclusive items that haven’t been released yet.

As one of the biggest name-brands in luxury apparel to date, it is no surprise that Michele comes out with new and dazzling sets of accessories on a regular basis. Most recent is the addition of the Cloette Diamond line of ladies wrist watches to Michele’s already extensive list of collections. This charming three-piece release features a whimsical assortment of insects – ladybug, bee, and butterfly.

Each of these watches is bedecked by over 100 diamonds that circle their bezels. Their faces are made of polished mother of pearl and their stainless steel bands are polished to give the most shine and glitter from whatever light you are nearby. The linked band with its small interlocking pieces also helps to encourage this effect with the added facets. The trademark Michele logo sits at the top of the clock face and the inlaid red crystal on the adjusting knob make pleasant highlights in a predominantly silver and white display. These watches have no numbering to denote the time, but instead have small metal spheres that mimic the shape of the frames and the way that the highlighted insects have been rendered.

All three of the new Cloette watches by Michele. Ladybug, bee, and butterfly.

There is little information available at the moment even on Michele’s webpage about further specifications of these charming pieces, but the starting prices have been fixed at $2,145 per piece at retail value. Considering how many diamonds have been inlaid into these accessories, it would seem the money is not only well spent, but that for up to one hundred and fifty diamonds, the set price is a bit of a steal. Of course, this is not the watch to buy on a modest budget – because these watches are so new to the market, it is likely that their prices will decrease given time. However, as the holiday season is upon us, if you simply know that these adorable figures will thrill a member of your family: this is the season of giving and perhaps digging a little deeper into your pockets than normal.

Really, just when it seemed like the culture of luxury watches was growing too serious, these new pieces are a pleasure to see. The watches lose none of their flare or elegance to the somewhat cartoonish insects and what little color there is on them does not overpower the diamonds which reflect the stainless steel. As always, we await with pleasure Michele’s future releases and additions to their lines.

The Bvlgari B ZERO1 Sun and Moon small women’s watch 101742 is a great example of Bvlgari’s passionate Italian design. With the black dial with a stylized moon and sun design set with 19 diamonds and gold hands, this stunning lady’s watch reflects the unique combination of Italian design and Swiss workmanship. The stainless steel round 22mm solid backed case, stainless steel bracelet with fastener and stainless steel set bezel with Bvlgari’s name engraved in it and unblemished sapphire crystal gives this watch a sturdy timeless look. This timepiece also comes with quartz movement. Bvlgari designed this luxurious women’s watch with both contemporary and classical elements in mind.
