Some of you may remember my previous post on men’s watches and how important they are in showcasing a man’s class and style. A good watch can be a man’s partner in crime–an investment in his career, his image, and, ultimately, his self. If you’ve already done yourself a favor and bought a sick watch, then it’s time to give back to the community and help another brother out.
We all know that finding the right watch can be tough—as I have mentioned before, it can seriously make or break your game. And let’s be honest here–your friends probably need your help, and as holiday gift-giving season is fast approaching, you have the perfect opportunity to get them up to speed.
A nice watch is basically a killer present– you’re not only giving him a practical, stylish gift that can be used for years to come, but also giving him something that will be an investment in his career and self-image—which is not easy to come by. I’ve put together a little holiday gift guide for the men in your life featuring three amazing timepieces from Victorinox—a super sleek brand that actually started out as the original Swiss army knife makers, but extended their rugged, yet classy style to wristwatches. Hope this helps!
The NIGHT VISION
This one is my personal favorite—its sporty, classic and versatile design has another shade of awesome with a multi-function light module built into its case. Basically, it can act as a flashlight for all you night-wandering vigilantes out there. With this watch, you can not only illuminate the dial for optimal time reading (duh, practical), but also turn on a continuous beam of light and even launch an SOS rescue signal, in Morse code, that can be seen from up to a kilometer away. James Bond might want to invest in this one.
The I.N.O.X.
Victorinox’s I.N.O.X. is the perfect companion for a man who is professional, sharp, and classy. This watch is timeless (no pun intended)–the sleek, (masculine) design is sexy and appealing not only to your boss and coworkers, but also to that girl you’ve been stalking all night from across the bar (show her your wrist, dude!). This watch makes you look like you know what you’re doing–whatever you’re doing (rock climbing, swimming–this thing can survive anything–apparently able to withstand a fall of 10 m, being repeatedly driven over by 64-ton tank, or spending two hours at 90° in a washing machine).
The CHRONO CLASSIC 1/100
A “three-step” chronograph timepiece that switches easily between modes of reading the hours and minutes to the chronograph which is accurate to the hundredth of a second—for those of you who like to be very precise in your time-telling abilities. You can even switch back to normal time-reading mode while the chronograph continues running. The sleek design of the watch recalls the shape and decoration of a Swiss Army Officer’s knife, paying homage to the origins and values of the Victorinox brand.
