If you think it takes a “Caribbean” jaunt to get “island” prices on jewelry, diamonds, and precious stones, think again. You can shop right online at Little Switzerland, the Caribbean’s preeminent luxury jeweler for over 60 years; it’s my go-to shop (especially during the
holidays) for fabulous discounts on some of the most coveted names in jewelry and watches. Cartier, Breitling, David Yurman, Roberto Coin, Avance, John Hardy, Lagos, Tag Heuer, and Omega are just some of the world-class brands you’ll find here.
And if you’re a woman who likes watches as much as I do, you’ll like this: renowned watchmaker, Omega recently revived its new luxury De Ville Trésor Collection – considered to be one of the most alluring women’s watches on the market today. Here’s the backstory: Distinguished by its iconic ultra-thin, golden case, Omega’s De Ville Trésor originally debuted in 1949, earning its name because of how it safeguarded the “treasure” found inside the watch – a highly precise quartz movement known as the 30 mm calibre.
Fast forward to 2018: Borrowing from the styling of its famous predecessor, Omega’s four newly-revived ladies‘ Trésor models capture the traditional elegance of the original design. Omega’s Trésor has reimagined elements like slender Roman Numerals, a curved diamond paving (ooh-la-la!), and various leather straps, adding a truly contemporary vibe to the Tresors’ classic lines. Incredibly, this newest incarnation also houses the “treasure” of the legendary calibre 4061 in an even slimmer case, making these new models sleeker than ever before. This head-turning collection comes in either 18K Sedna™ pink gold, 18K yellow gold and is further distinguished by the diamond-set bezels.
I treated myself to the 18K yellow gold Trésor, and believe me, it’s a total knock-out!. The prices and selection of top luxury brands here are as good as it gets. Check them out at littleswitzerland.com. Info: (877) 800-9998
