Engraved fob watch: a birthday gift your dad will love

Is your father’s birthday fast approaching? Yes? Then the conundrum of what gift to buy him has likely already started. Maybe you find mum much easier to shop for (with the option of chocolates, flowers or anything pretty), but finding a gift for dad is anything but easy. Of course, he might enjoy the chocolates too, but you are looking for something more masculine, aren’t you?

Why don't you consider a fob watch? Once regarded as a bit old-fashioned, these elegant timepieces are all the rage today, with a whole range of options available, from classy but affordable examples to trendy designer pieces. One of the great things about fob watches is that they can be sported with everyday clothes as well as a fine outfit which might be worn on a grand occasion such as a wedding or anniversary.

As soon as you have decided that you embrace the idea of a fob watch gift for your old man, it will then be a matter of choosing something that you think your dad will like. There are many different styles and finishes, with a number of different case colours to choose from. The obvious choices might be something in gold or silver but if your dad is a bit trendier, there are bright and vibrant colours available too!

If you want to make an already special gift, even more unique, you can have the back of the watch engraved with a special message just for your dad. An engraved fob watch makes for a wonderful alternative present to the usual batch of socks, tie or DVD's as your special engraved message will be something your dad will be able to see and look back on every time he takes out his watch.

If you are still not sold on the idea of gifting a fob watch, you can consider an engraved wallet. The engraving can make anything a gift that could effectively last for a lifetime and that includes a wallet too. A wallet is a great gift by itself, but a personal touch is going to turn it into the perfect gift.

If you find that your dad is notoriously difficult to buy presents for, look no further than engraved gifts. Whether you go for a wallet or a fob watch, engraved gifts are guaranteed to bring a smile to your dad’s face when he opens it.
