The best part is with so many options you can please all the men in your life, from the fitness fanatic to the high-end businessman. Today’s watches tell time, plus a whole lot more … if that’s what your man wants.
Fitness watches – For the man who works out even when he isn’t working out, today’s fitness watches are the perfect gift. Available in a variety of styles, they track fitness goals, including steps, heart rate, water intake and diet, while adding simple elegance. Most have attractive, easy to use digital screens and a choice of bands.
Smart watches – The smart watch is the ultimate in a functional accessory, providing all the functions of a smart phone, including calls, texts and emails, as well as fitness tracking and internet searching. Smart watches are attractive and may be customized, with many choices of color and style of bands.
Is the man in your life more traditional? Casual and high-end watches are still in style.
Casual watches – Probably one of the most popular gift purchases of the holidays not that many years ago, an attractive, casual watch is still a great addition to any wardrobe. Available in standard or digital form, with bands ranging from rugged metal to faux leather, most shoppers can find a watch to fit any budget and any style.
Luxury watches – When you are pulling out all the stops, brands such as Rolex and Breitling can be relied upon to provide top quality with the ultimate in sophistication. Choose to make a statement with gold or silver, or go for the understated with a muted metal face and a leather band.
Pocket watches – For the truly traditional man, a pocket watch can perfectly finish that classy suit or add just what is needed to that black-tie event.
