7 watches that make for a heartfelt Mother’s Day Gift

WatchTime India’s picks for the best Mother’s Day gifts this year

Every year you search for a perfect gift for your mom to make her day special. For 2023, we’ve curated a list of 7 luxury watches to choose from for the Mother’s Day present.

Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso One Precious Colors

Jaeger-LeCoultre’s Reverso One Precious Colors is unmistakably one of the best watch gifts for Mother’s Day. This ladies’ watch was released at Watches and Wonders 2023 and comes in two striking hues - shades of blue with black on a pink gold background and tones of green on a white gold background. 


The white mother-of-pearl dial of the Reverso One Precious Colours is detailed with narrow gold borders in each corner and applied numerals and Dauphine hands. The pattern on the case is executed in miniature-painted grand feu enamel with diamond-set accents. The back reinterprets the Reverso One Precious Colours model as a piece of High Jewellery with a miniature-painted grand feu enamel pattern with diamond-set accents. 


The timepieces are powered by the hand-wound Calibre 846 which brings a power reserve of 38 hours.  The two variations come with alligator leather strap options: blue for the pink gold model and green for the white gold piece.
