Of Kors, The Festive Season’s Best Gift Is a Watch
A Michael Kors watch offers a timeless gift of style and substance for him and for her this festive season
At the beginning of 2025, I had this unsettling sense that time had betrayed me.
It wasn’t so much that it was moving too fast, it was more like the rules of time had broken down entirely. Some days felt like they’d stretched into an infinity of minor events: coffee, emails, phone calls, repeat. Other weeks felt as fleeting as the last seconds of a commercial break, as if I blinked and it was already the weekend.
It was as though days were bleeding into one another like an unfinished novel, moments too blurred to recognise.
One Saturday afternoon, after a week that had defied any sense of rhythm, I found myself wandering through the porcelain-white hush of a premium retail precinct in the city. As I passed a boutique window, something caught my eye—a gleaming timepiece in the display, ticking away, resolute in its quiet certainty. As I looked closer, I realised it wasn’t only the watch that had grabbed me, it was also the idea that I could own time, just for a moment, and feel some sense of control.
And that’s the thing about watches. When you slip a well-crafted watch onto your wrist, it’s as if you’re holding the chaos at arm’s length. It's a small, tangible anchor in a world that sometimes feels untethered. A good watch doesn’t just look good; it feels like a declaration that you’re in charge of your own rhythm, no matter how fast or slow the world moves around you.
Naturally, the festivities are a time when we want to make the most of every second, a season where every minute seems precious. It's the perfect moment to consider the accessories that elevate the everyday and, perhaps, a reminder that owning time means owning your style. And who better to remind you of that than Michael Kors, whose designs capture that intersection of time, fashion, and aspiration.
Michael Kors watches embody the balance of effortless glamour and everyday sophistication, where impeccable design meets a fashion-forward sensibility. For over four decades, Michael Kors has crafted an aesthetic that’s as polished as it is powerful. His watches are no exception. Designed not just to keep time, but to elevate looks, punctuate moments, and express individuality, these timepieces bring luxury to every wrist.
