Watch Gift for Boyfriend or Husband UK: What to Buy by Budget
A watch is one of the few gifts a man will wear every day and still remember who gave it to him. The trouble is choosing one. Too plain and it disappears, too loud and he will never put it on. The answer is to pick by how he dresses and what he already owns.
Here are five watch gifts from Tomell London, from £165 to £350. Every one arrives in black gift packaging with a handwritten note from the founder, so there is nothing else to buy. Free UK delivery, dispatched the same day.
Tokyo Brown £165
Rose gold chronograph · Brown croc-pattern Italian leather strap · 40mm · Sapphire crystal · Japan quartz
The watch that catches eyes before you say a word. Rose gold and brown leather in warm tones, with a chronograph layout. It looks like it cost more than it did.
Who it’s for: He dresses smart-casual, wears shirts and jumpers, and likes a warm look.
Pilot APEX-22 - £165
Black chronograph · Tachymeter bezel · 45mm · Japan quartz · 50m water resistant
Full black, nothing softened. A quartz chronograph with a tachymeter bezel, built like a tool watch and wearing like a statement.
Who it’s for: He wears black, likes bigger watches, and would never pick a gold one.
Frosted Royal Gold £240
Frosted gold · Diamond-dust stardust dial · 40mm · Sapphire crystal · 10 ATM
Most gold watches announce themselves. This one doesn’t need to. A fully frosted gold case that scatters light across thousands of tiny facets, with a diamond-dust dial.
Who it’s for: He likes a dressier watch and wears it to work and out. A gift that feels like a step up.
Diamo Frosted £265
Frosted silver · Diamond-dust stardust dial · 45mm · Sapphire crystal · 5 ATM
Most frosted watches whisper. The Diamo Frosted doesn’t. 45mm of fully frosted stainless steel with a dial that sits deep and matte in shade, then scatters light in direct sun.
Who it’s for: He likes a big watch with presence, and prefers silver to gold.
Supreme Aqua £350
Silver automatic · Aqua blue stardust dial · 42mm · Miyota self-winding · Sapphire crystal · 10 ATM
A dial worth looking at and a movement worth owning. Self-winding, so no battery, ever, with a stardust dial that shifts between teal and turquoise in the light.
Who it’s for: He already owns a watch or two and you want to give him something that feels special. The top of the range for a gift.
Add a Small Extra: Magnus Silver £35
A Cuban-link style silver chain bracelet with a lobster clasp, adjustable, in hypoallergenic stainless steel. It stacks with any watch and turns a single gift into a set. See Magnus Silver.
