    We'll definitely be investing in one

    Cindy Crawford has had a busy few weeks, and whether it’s her filming her daughter Kaia Gerber walking the runway at the Chanel show or walking the runway herself at Milan Fashion week in a tribute to Gianni Versace, she’s constantly on our radar.

    Judging by her social media however, this isn’t exclusive to fashion week season with the 51-year-old American supermodel never seeming to slow down, balancing a busy work schedule and social life.

    Photoshoots, campaigns, Casamigos and parenting duties – just a standard week for Cindy, leading many to ask how she manages it all.

    Her secret? A trusty watch.

    ‘I’m a very punctual person and a very organised person,’ Cindy explained at the ‘Her Time’ exhibition in Paris last week. ‘I’m a busy person but the way that I can do everything is by keeping to my schedule.’

    ‘When I first started wearing a watch, it was for necessity’, she stated, going on to explain that now that she has a phone with the time on, she now values her watch as not only a time teller but also a piece of jewellery.

    ‘No one has to wear a watch,’ she explained, ‘but I feel like it’s a statement accessory.’

    If Cindy Crawford recommends a watch, we're definitely going to listen. With so many amazing designer and high street watches, we're spoiled for choice - but at least we've got a few Black Friday watches deals coming up on the horizon.

    Whether you're going for a minimal look or stacking with chunky bracelets, the world of watches has moved on and there's a number of cute styles that'll work with any outfit. Here's to hopefully being as fly as Cindy - or at least, more punctual.
