(NAPSI)-If you want to give a timeless gift, consider a watch that evokes styles from the past. Gift givers can find timepieces inspired by classic icons, seemingly ageless designers or glamorous generations.

For instance, in the 1930s, when cocktail watches reached a peak, a delicate barrel shaped case with multistrap bracelets and diamonds around the bezel was all the rage. Called the Lady Hamilton, the timepiece was made by Hamilton watches.

The classic style was recently reintroduced-complete with delicate hands that point to Arabic numbers and the same Lady Hamilton inscription on its back side as was found on the original.

Of course, the new watches have some modern twists: One version sports a red or white satin strap and another, a sparkling, diamond-studded case held in place by provocative metal strands. An additional new version is in black and is secured by long leather strings that can embrace the wrist several times.
