Talking about fashionable accessories, one cannot over look watches and jewelry in Kolkata . Watches and jewelry have become an inevitable part of styling or decking up, as we call it; and Kolkata being the ever growing hub of the fashion industry, could not undermine the importance of watches and jewelry .
With the reimbursement of the fashion industry, the watch and the jewelry industry has also seen a considerable hike. Everywhere in the city, we find watch and jewelry shops opening up every now and then. This hike in the watch and jewelry shop is not only due to the effect of reimbursement in the fashion industry, but due to some age-old traditions in India.
In India, we celebrate “Dhanteras”, a festival in which it is mandatory for the Indians to wear gold ornaments. Thus, before this festival, we find people throughout India going out for shopping. They buy jewelry and watches made of gold or silver.
Moreover, apparel and fashion industry has the reputation of being instrumental in increasing the economy of a country, and the jewelry and watches industry , being an indispensable part of the industry, is also working tremendously towards this effect.
Among the famous showrooms dealing in watches and jewelry in Kolkata which contribute towards uplifting the economy of the state are:
• P.C Chandra Jewelers
• The Senco Jewelry Palace
• Sen Gold Emporium
• Mahabir Danwar Jewellers (P) Limited
• World of Titan

• Anglo-Swiss Watch Company
• B. Basak and Sons
• B. Sirkar and Sons
• Benud Bihari Dutta
• Bengal Watch Company
• Chandrani Pearls

Therefore, we can say that jewelry and watches form the basis of fashion in India, especially in Kolkata, where people buy ornaments for their prosperity more than anything else!
