Spring bling: Revealing this season’s must-have watches

New York horologist and jeweller Harry Winston’s Emerald collection is getting an update this season. The distinctive octagonal case shape and dial were inspired by his favourite diamond cut: the emerald cut. The unisex model is available with an automatic or quartz movement. Shown above is the Emerald Automatic 33mm, which comes in 18k white gold with a blue alligator strap and a sun ray satin-brushed finish. POA, harrywinston.com 

Out in June, get your pre-order in now for Tag Heuer’s limited-release chronograph, TAG Heuer Carrera 160 Years Silver Limited Edition. The original watch is named after the Carrera Panamericana road race from the 1950s, which caught founder Jack Heuer’s interest. He streamlined the watch to make it perfect for drivers who needed to see the time at a glance. With only 1,860 timepieces, the new model has had some updates, such as a 39mm diameter and a silver sun ray brushed dial. £5,295, tagheuer.com
