With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, it’s still not too late if you haven’t thought of a special gift for your significant other. Enter: Swatch’s Valentine’s Day collection. Swatch has been known for creating unique watches, particularly for the season of love since 1995 so it’s no surprise that they are back with a brand new collection — this time with a recipe-inspired watch, as well as a pair of his-and-hers timepieces.
RECIPE FOR LOVE
Playing on the age-old concept of ‘the way to a person’s heart is through their stomach’, Recipe For Love ($158) is a playful timepiece with watch hands in the shape of a knife and fork, and nine different customisable watch strap loops.

The idea is to let you create your own recipe for love using the nine ingredients printed on each watch strap loop. As a finishing touch to this recipe-inspired watch, a red and white chequered tablecloth pattern has been printed on the back of the watch strap to reflect the typical dinner table setting.
LOVE TO GO AROUND AND PUREST LOVE

If you’ve been looking for a more subtle take on couple’s wear, this pair of New Gent watches might just fit the bill. LOVE TO GO AROUND ($120) features a watch face with the word ‘LOVE’ printed three times and a mirror effect dial set on a blue strap, while PUREST LOVE ($105) comes with the word ‘LOVE’ engraved three times on the red mirrored watch face with a heart replacing ‘o’ at 12 o’clock and watch hands in the shape of cupid’s arrows.
The Swatch Valentine’s Day Collection is available now at all Swatch outlets islandwide as well as online at SWATCH.COM. All images courtesy of Swatch.
