Fashion Time, McLean

The staff at Fashion Time hold time itself in their hands—in the store’s collection of eye-catching watches, that is. At locations throughout Maryland and Virginia, they pair customers’ wrists with high-end and affordable watches from name-brand designers, such as Edifice, Kimio, Seiko, and Citizen. Customers can also peruse the store’s inventory online, with shipping available nationwide. Already-purchased watches can be registered online via an easy submission form or a more difficult smoke-signal pattern.
