Trendsetter watch gifts

This gift guide is for the trendsetter, the person who likes their look a step ahead of everyone else. It gathers Mondaine's most current and distinctive watches, from fresh colourways to standout cases, so you can give something that feels genuinely modern.

Trendsetters often already own the obvious pieces, so the appeal here is choosing something less expected. Leaning into a newer release or an unusual finish gives them a watch their friends have not seen yet, which is exactly the point.

Trend-aware does not have to mean short-lived. The watches selected here nod to current tastes while keeping the clean Swiss design that ages well, so the gift still feels current a year from now rather than tied to one fleeting moment.

Heritage, pushed forward

These pieces take the brand's design roots and move them on. The clean, legible dial stays, but the finishes, shapes and colours feel current, which is exactly what a style-led friend wants: a watch with history behind it and an eye on what is next.

For someone who notices design and likes to wear it first, a forward-looking Mondaine reads as a considered choice rather than a safe one. It is a gift with a bit of edge.

Choosing for the style-led

Lean towards the most distinctive options here: the newer colourways, the bolder cases, the pieces that look least like everything else. A trendsetter will appreciate a watch that stands apart from the usual.

Browse the trendsetter edit, compare the standout designs and choose a Mondaine that feels ahead of the curve. It is a present made for someone who likes to be first and wants their accessories to prove it.
