The Best Luxury Watches to give for Father’s Day
Father’s Day is just around the corner. Watches are always a good idea to give to your father. More than the watch itself, a watch is symbolic of time. I have always said that when you give someone a watch, you promise him or her a part of your time forever. Check out these luxury watches which are perfect as gifts for every type of dad:
For the sporty

Breitling Super Chronomat B01
Case: 44mm
Movement: Automatic, up to 70hrs power reserve
Material: Stainless Steel
Water resistance: 200m
SRP: P609,000
The Breitling Chronomat is a classic. You can confidently do anything while wearing it on your wrist. For 2021, Breitling has come out with refreshed models of the Chronomat, including the model featured here.
For the businessman

Vacheron Constantin Patrimony
Case: 36mm
Movement: Automatic, up to 43hrs power reserve
Material: 18k Pink Gold
SRP: P1,410,000
Vacheron Constantin completes the “Holy Trinity of Watchmaking” alongside Patek Philippe and Audemars Piguet. It is the least known among the three. Notwithstanding the lack of popularity, Vacheron Constantin produces watches which are of equal, or even greater, quality with the other Swiss watch manufacturers. The Patrimony is Vacheron Constantin’s answer to the minimalist formal wristwatch. Aside from the beauty of the Patrimony, it is also powered by a movement which carries the Geneva Seal. This watch definitely commands respect in the boardroom.
For the traveller

IWC Pilot’s Watch Timezoner Chronograph
Case: 46mm
Movement: Automatic, up to 68hrs power reserve
Material: Stainless Steel
Water resistance: 60m
SRP: $11,900
Known more for the traditional Pilot’s watches, IWC also produces watches for other purposes. The Timezoner is essentially a Pilot’s watch with a multiple time-zone display. IWC has done a great job with sticking to its roots and incorporating other mechanisms which make this watch beautiful and functional at the same time. The Timezoner is perfect for the dad who loves to travel and see the world.
For the adventurer

Tudor Black Bay Fifty-Eight 925
Case: 39mm
Movement: Automatic, up to 70hrs power reserve
Material: Silver
Water resistance: 200m
SRP: P214,000
Tudor has had a magnificent 2021 so far. Most of their watches have been met with general praise from the watch community. One of their standout watches is this Tudor Black Bay Fifty-Eight 925. To most, it looks like the ordinary Black Bay Fifty-Eight. However, this watch is made from silver and not stainless steel. This watch absolutely stuns in all aspects from its looks down to its movement. Any father will be happy to wear this to any adventure.
For the dad who loves the beach

Omega Planet Ocean 600m
Case: 45.5mm
Movement: Automatic, up to 60hrs power reserve
Material: Stainless Steel
Water resistance: 600m
SRP: EUR6,400
Omega needs no introduction. Aside from the quality which Omega is known for, this Planet Ocean carries with it a very beautiful and vibrant mood. While no dad will probably dive with this watch to 600m (which it is capable of), most dads would love to be accompanied by this watch to the beach.
For your grandfather

Rolex Cellini Time
Case: 39mm
Movement: Automatic, up to 43hrs power reserve

Grandfathers are often known to be people who love the classics and who have substance and style. The Rolex Cellini is the perfect embodiment of such traits. You may never be able to reciprocate the love given by your grandfather, but you can always give a watch which will always remind him of the strong bond you two have for each other.
