A watch is a must-have piece of jewellery for anyone, equestrian or not. But most equestrians love to add a horsey-touch to their accessories, hence the success of equestrian jewellery brands around the world that specialise in creating jewellery for horse lovers. We’ve picked out the best equestrian watches each horse-riding lover should take a look at and explained why we like them so much.

1. Wonderlust Life ‘The Horse’ Resin Watch Pink Speckle

Wonderlust Life is a jewellery brand that sells handmade jewellery made in the UK. It’s very feminine in style, coming in a soft blush, featuring a rose gold clasp and speckle detailing, with the text ‘The Horse’ in an understated font.

2. Hermes Arceau Cheval Cosmique Watch

This timepiece is a real one off that is unique and intricate to look at. A white gold horse gently trots across the dial juxtaposed against swirling waves, showing off the incredibly craftsmanship of this watch. A saddle maker originally launched Hermes, a French man called Thierry Hermes, who hand stitched saddles in the 19th century – thus the French house ‘Hermes’ was born. This watch is a statement nod to the beginnings and the history of this iconic brand.

3. Longines Ladies Equestrian Diamond Black Quartz Watch

This watch isn’t cheap, but consider it an investment. Longines is a well established and esteemed fashion brand, whose quality lives up to its name. The black watch face is dotted with diamonds around the circle and the silver watchstrap meets the watch face with dual bit snaffle shaped connecting rings.

4. Gucci Signoria Wristwatch Watch Quartz

A beautiful watch which will have you standing out from the crowd! Gucci is always an enviable brand and this watch screams I love horses in the most elegant way.

5. Gucci Horsebit Stainless Steel MOP Diamond Dial Quartz Ladies Watch

Everyone knows that the Swiss make the best watches, ‘Swiss Made’ is basically a stamp of quality and approval, rest assured that you are buying the best. This watch is a more subtle and understated version of the previous, but equally as stunning. It features a pearlescent face with three diamonds and a beautifully detailed horse snaffle bit for the wrist piece – perfection.

6. Gallop Guru Black Leather and Chrome Dimacci Stirrup Watch

Sometimes simplicity is best. This watch is affordable with a premium look! It features a leather wrist strap and a stirrup shaped framed watch face.

7. Dimacci Nicy Queen Stirrup Watch Black/Gold

Quite similar to the Gallop Guru watch in design but without the wrap around strap and with the added bonus of some bling! This watch is designed for the modern rider and features a stirrup gold framed face that is elegantly dotted with diamonds. Check out their other jewellery pieces, which are all inspired by horses!

If you’re looking for a thoughtful gift or even a treat for yourself, these watches are a sure style bet for any fashion conscious horse lover! With Christmas coming up, a watch can be the perfect Christmas present for a horse lover, or even a well deserved gift from ‘me to me’.
