Four Watches For Fathers Day

It is almost Fathers Day again, that time of the year to surprise dad with something special to show our appreciation for all he has done and is still doing. The most precious gift is the time we spend together with him. However, to also give him a constant reminder of how you value him when you cannot be together, a watch might be an appropriate gift. Such as one of the following four:

Rolex Explorer II
As things are slowly getting back to normal after the pandemic, it also becomes easier to travel again. Dad will probably enjoy this as well, and the renewed Rolex Explorer II might be his perfect travel companion. It features a 42mm case, made from 904L Oystersteel, and a robust yet comfortable Oyster-bracelet. Thanks to the distinct orange hand and bezel with black 24-hour markers, is reading the time in another timezone a breeze. With 100-meter water resistance, dad also doesn’t have to avoid the water, while inside the caliber 3285 will keep precise time under even the most challenging condition.

Hublot is, without a doubt, the king of ceramic. It can make this strong and resilient material in a wide variety of colors, including white. This color gives the Hublot Big Bang Integral, with its integrated bracelet, an even cooler look. As the material is also very light, the wearing comfort is second to none, something dad will appreciate. The Hublot Big Bang Integral Ceramic White is powered by HUB1280, a manufacture movement that combines automatic winding and a generous power reserve of 72-hours, with a flyback chronograph. In case dad prefers another color than white, Hublot also offers the Big Bang Integral Ceramic in blue and grey.

Ulysse Nardin Diver X Skeleton
For dads who like high-tech watches with a dash of color, Ulysse Nardin has just the thing. The new Diver X Skeleton is a bold 44mm large diving watch with a case made out of titanium with a blue PVD coating. While diving watches are quite common, as a skeleton it is a true rarity. However, with this Ulysse Nardin, it allows dad to get an intimate insight into the movement of this watch. As one of the pioneers in silicium, Ulysse Nardin used this innovative material to make the anchor and balance spring from as well as the escapement wheel. That also makes the Diver X Skeleton, unlike any other diving watch.

With its 41mm large case and prominent crown and pushers, does the Pasha de Cartier Chronograph make a bold statement. Based on Gerald Genta’s iconic design, it comes with a diving bezel and Vendome strap attachment. This is powered by a manufacture chronograph movement, visible through the sapphire caseback. Cartier offers it in traditional yellow gold on an alligator strap or stainless steel on either an alligator strap or with the H-link bracelet. Switching between straps and/or bracelet can be done in seconds thanks to the patented QuickSwitch mechanism. This ensures that dad can always match the Pasha de Cartier Chronograph to suit his mood or outfit.
