The stakes are high on Valentine’s Day. When you are shopping for just that one special person, there’s very little room for error.
While flowers or chocolates are great ways to say “I love you,” you may want to indulge your love with something long lasting. For the perfect gift, consider a timeless classic — one that fits her personal style. But remember, one watch doesn’t fit all personalities or lifestyles.
“The right watch can foster a spirit of individuality and communicate a person’s sense of style,” said Matthew Shell, vice president of product development at watch brand Armitron.
With that in mind, Shell offers the following suggestions for locating the right watch for your beloved one:
Trend setters:
For those who like to look their best, accessory coordination is key. So do you choose to find a watch strap made of genuine leather, or choose a bracelet style watch , look for a flexible watch that can go from day to night or dress up or dress up depending on the occasion. Before making your choice, consider your recipient’s favorites — consider preferences like gold versus silver and vintage versus modern.
Athlete:
Boost your beloved one’s training efforts with a sporty watch made to move. For example, the Armitron Pro-Sport Digital watch displays lap times, a stop watch and a chronograph to help runners, swimmers and other athletes reach their goals. Water-resistant to 330 feet, this watch category offers a colourful dial, a soft-touch resin strap, a chrome bezel, and a silver-tone buckle closure.
The sentimentalist:
If your gift recipient already has a favourite watch for everyday wear, consider something elegant that’s — but does not must — be reserved for special occasions. For example, a bangle watch serves as jewelery and timepiece, putting form and function on the same level. Or for him, a watch featuring a diamond dial.
Confident:
For the confident man, consider an automatic watch that does not require a battery to operate. This stainless steel automatic watch from Armitron has a case movement and luminous buttons.
To make Valentine’s Day successful, consider a classic watch gift to show your love is timeless.
