Swatch has revealed a new range of timepieces which come with a unique strap design, fashion watch enthusiasts may be interested to hear.Entitled the Lady Collection, the products are styled with a long, slim silicone bracelet, which is designed to wrap around a wearer's wrist twice, Professional Jeweller reported.This feature allows the watches to stand out on the market, though the choice of colour tones also catches the eye.Consumers get the option of ten tones to choose from, these being green, yellow, pale crimson, white, beige, light blue, light pink, purple, azure and peach.These "bright summer shades" are applied to all parts of the timepiece for fashionistas to admire, including on its buckle, strap and plastic case.Recently, male watch fans were treated to the Swatch Gents Originals range, which also offer a wealth of stylish tones to choose from, with petrol blue and midnight black just to name a couple.

Swatch watches have been hailed as a global phenomenon by author Jurg Wegelin.The writer, whose book Mr Swatch details the rise of the international brand, said Swatch watches were designed to be the cheapest and best watches in history.Speaking to the Telegraph, he stated that the company achieved this goal by developing a timepiece with just 50 parts.This, he said, made it highly affordable and gave customers the opportunity to change the look of their watch.Mr Wegelin also noted that the low price of Swatch watches completely transformed buying behaviour among consumers."In future, women would buy a Swatch to go with their clothes and the watch would become a fashion accessory," he commented.Mr Wegelin added that Swatch watches are of such high quality that they never need to be repaired. This comes after Swatch watches confirmed that Nayla Hayek is to step in as the company's new chairwoman following the death of founder Nicolas Hayek last week.
