Our Top Five Father's Day Gift Ideas

With Father’s Day just around the corner, now is the time to find that perfect gift to show your appreciation for the father in your life. It’s not always easy to find a gift he’ll appreciate and enjoy, but if there is one gift a father is likely to enjoy, it’s a piece of jewelry. After all, what guy really needs another necktie in his closet? So go ahead and give him a gift he’s almost guaranteed to love. Here are our top five suggestions for Father’s Day gifts this year:

Montblanc pen: A magnificent writing instrument. The Meisterstuck Classique pen features a ball-point tip, with a twist mechanism and makes a perfect gift for any father. The barrel and cap are crafted in black resin inlaid with a Montblanc emblem and accented with three gold-plated rings, as well as a gold-plated cap. It’s both classy and elegant and is a distinguished way for you to show your appreciation.

Edward Mirell Tuxedo bracelet: Our Edward Mirell line is brand new to our store and has arrived just in time for Father’s Day. With a brilliant selection of rings, necklaces, bracelets, cufflinks, money clips and more, you’re sure to find a gift he’ll be happy with. We recommend the black titanium and sterling silver bracelet from Edward Mirell’s tuxedo collection. It can be matched with a tuxedo ring, necklace, keychain, or even a pair of cufflinks. The tuxedo line epitomizes authentic style and leaves you with room for future gift ideas when that next big occasion arrives.

Tissot watch: Add some style to your dad’s wardrobe with this brilliant gold-tone quartz Tissot PR100 Classic gentleman’s wristwatch. The watch features a silver dial date window, gold-plated case and gold-plated bracelet and is water resistant to 100 meters. After all, who would be opposed to having a flashy new watch to wear to work?

Golf tool and bottle opener: If he likes to golf, why not buy him this fantastic engraved silver tone metal golf tool? Perfect for a day out on the course, this tool features a magnetic marker, a groove cleaner brush, a green repair instrument and a divot repair device. The tool can also be specially engraved by our engraver. Along with his golf shoes, khaki’s and tee, what else can a man possibly need out on the golf course? We like to think this golf ball bottle opener wouldn’t be too bad of an item to have either out on that warm Saturday afternoon on the green.

Engravable money clip: Nothing says ‘Happy Father’s Day’ in a more unique and personalized way than an engraved money clip. With a wide variety of money clips available, including silver plated, yellow gold-tone metal and nickel-plated money clips, it won’t be hard to find a money clip that matches his style. This gift is perfect for engraving any inscription of your choice.

All of these items can be found in our store. We’d love to show them to you or offer you further suggestions for what might make a perfect Father’s Day gift.
