Quick answer: Couple watches are two matching watches, one for him and one for her, in the same style and colour but in different sizes. The easiest way to choose is to pick a matching pair from the same series. Casio makes his-and-hers versions of many models, such as the MTP (men) and LTP (women) pairs. In Dubai you can get a genuine matching pair for about AED 140 to AED 300, which keeps a couple watch set well under AED 500.
What are couple watches?
A couple watch set (also called his and her watches) is a pair of watches designed to match. The men’s watch usually has a larger case, around 38–42 mm, and the women’s watch a smaller one, around 25–30 mm. The design, metal and finish match, so the pair clearly belongs together. Couple watches are popular gifts for weddings, engagements, anniversaries, Valentine’s Day and Eid.
How do I choose matching watches for a couple?
- Choose the same series. Brands often release the same design in men’s and women’s sizes. With Casio, the MTP code is for men and LTP is for women, for example MTP-1302D and LTP-1302D.
- Agree on the metal. Gold-tone is romantic and dressy. Silver steel is practical for daily wear. Two-tone works with both gold and silver jewellery.
- Think about daily life. If you both wear the watch every day, choose a stainless steel bracelet. It is durable and easy to clean in the UAE heat.
- Match the dial, not just the bracelet. A white dial on both, or a black dial for him and a white dial for her, both look good together.
- Set a budget for the pair. Decide the total first. A good genuine pair does not need to cost more than AED 500.

Mixing brands: can couple watches be different?
Yes. Matching does not have to mean identical. Many couples choose watches that share a colour or mood. For example, choose a gold Sveston for her, like the Ryen square gold watch, with a gold-tone men’s watch for him. Or pair two steel watches with blue dials. Browse men’s watches and women’s watches side by side to find your match.
Are watches a good gift for couples?
Watches are one of the most meaningful gifts because they are worn every day and last for years. A matching set is a daily reminder of a special moment. Buying for him alone? See our gift for men guide, or browse the best Casio watches for women for her. Add a gift box (AED 3.50 each) and the pair is ready to give.
