Ice-Watch: The Colorful Collection That Changes Everything
From 49 to 169 euros, our selection of the 6 best Ice-Watch models in 2026: retro-digital, jewelry-style, transparent, and solar-powered
Ice-Watch is based on the idea that a watch can be a color. Founded in 2007 in Belgium, the brand has established a simple yet radical concept: “Time is a collection”—in other words, you don’t wear the same watch every day. By 2026, Ice-Watch will be available in 100 countries, with more than 50 million units sold. This guide will help you choose the right model from among dozens of collections.
The Ice-Watch DNA: The Watch as a Fashion Accessory
Before Ice-Watch, a watch was often a one-time investment—an item you kept for years. Jean-Pierre Lutgen, the brand’s founder, turned that logic on its head: an Ice-Watch is worn just as you would wear a color. It complements your bag, your outfit, and your mood. It’s not just a watch—it’s a collection.
The success of this design is due to three specific elements. The high-quality, flexible, and lightweight silicone, which makes the strap comfortable even in extreme heat. The standard water resistance (10 ATM, or 100 meters), which allows you to swim, surf, and participate in any water sport. And the price, kept under 200 euros for nearly the entire catalog, making it financially feasible to collect multiple watches.
"Time is a collection." The slogan says it all. Ice-Watch encourages its customers to own multiple watches—one for every occasion or mood. One-quarter of Ice-Watch buyers purchase a second model within 12 months of their first purchase.

If your budget is around 99 euros
You have three options at the same price, and the choice depends on the style you're looking for. The ICE Cosmos for a jewel-like effect. The ICE Glam Brushed for understated, feminine elegance. The ICE Sunset for vibrant colors and a vacation vibe. All three are well worth the price, without a doubt.

See all Ice-Watch watchesFrequently Asked Questions About Ice-Watch
Is Ice-Watch a good brand?
Yes, Ice-Watch is a reputable brand founded in Belgium in 2007, with a presence in 100 countries. Its watches feature reliable Swiss or Japanese quartz movements, certified silicone, and are consistently water-resistant to 10 ATM. While it lacks the prestige of traditional Swiss watchmaking, within its price range (49–200 euros), the quality is there and its durability is proven.
Is the Ice-Watch water-resistant?
All Ice-Watch watches are water-resistant to 10 ATM (100 meters), which means they can easily withstand swimming, snorkeling, water sports, and showers. ISO-certified diving watches require a higher level of water resistance (20 ATM or more), but for everyday use—including sports—10 ATM is more than enough.
Is Ice-Watch suitable for a man?
Absolutely. While many models are designed for women (the Glam and Cosmos collections), Ice-Watch offers a solid lineup for men: ICE Sixty Nine (solar-powered, 42mm), ICE Steel, ICE Sport, and ICE Hero. The ICE Digit Retro is also very popular among men. Just check out the models in the Medium and Large sizes to find the right ones.
How long does an Ice-Watch last?
With proper care, an Ice-Watch will last 5 to 10 years without any problems. The silicone may yellow slightly over time on some light-colored models, but it remains functional. The quartz battery lasts 2 to 3 years, depending on the model. Silicone straps are replaceable and inexpensive. The solar-powered model (ICE Sixty Nine) eliminates the battery issue.
Where can I buy an Ice-Watch in France?
Club de la Montre offers one of the largest selections of Ice-Watch watches online, with free shipping, easy returns, and after-sales service in France. All watches come with a warranty and are sold directly with the brand's official documentation.
