Gift of the Day: Armani Exchange Holiday Watches
Countdown the days to Christmas in style
Countdown the days to Christmas in style
If somebody you know really needs to make being punctual a New Year’s Resolution, we’ve sussed out a Christmas gift that’ll keep them on time. Armani Exchange has released their Christmas watch collection, but don’t expect any red and green here - it’s all black, all modern and all ultra covetable.
The boys in your life will find something to live in the Dynamic Streets Collection, which has a distinctly urban and throwback feel to it that we’re totally down for. On the other end, their women’s Notting Hill collection is its complete antithesis with sophisticated minimal watches that are sure to upgrade any work wardrobe. Check them all out below.
AX5543 Notting Hill Watch, £124.25, Amazon
Black and gold always looks effortlessly luxe and this elegant ladies’ watch definitely fits the bill. With a patterned thin leather strap, black dial, rhinestones and gold indexes to finish the whole thing off, it’s a workwear staple you’ll be reaching for again and again.
AX5548 Notting Hill Black Mesh Watch, £119.25, Amazon
This watch isn’t meshing around. Another black and gold iteration from Armani Exchange, it’s the most delicate watch of the collection with a minimal clock face and strap.

AX2402 Striped Knit Strap Watch, £119, Amazon
If you know a guy who’s a streetwear aficionado and has a sporty streak, this bold watch is a great shout. With bursts of yellow accents and a clear clock face, it’s just the right side of nostalgic without tipping way into 90s territory.
AX2513 Gradient Chrono Bracelet Watch, £154, Amazon
The stainless steel H-link watch gets a massive upgrade with Armani’s take, which brings a jet black finish and iridescent clock face for a hyper modern look. With multiple clock faces and water-resistance, you’ll be able to take it anywhere.
