At DavidSW, we pride ourselves on offering a variety of luxury timepieces for every occasion, and as the holiday season approaches, you don’t want to be caught scrambling in search of the perfect gift. While there’s still time, we’re going to explore some great options for the special people in our lives.
For Her
Ladies first – after all, where would we be without the women in our lives? This is the perfect season to show up and show out with something that shines almost as brightly as she does. For this, let’s take a look at Rolex. The options are endless, and there really is something for everyone.
The Rolex Datejust 278274 with Blue Floral Diamond Motif Dial
This lovely piece shines like a diamond – 24 to be exact. A relatively new dial, the upgraded Rolex floral motif features blue flower petals subtly set with diamonds that create a shimmer effect on the wrist. Paired with the iconic 18K white gold fluted bezel and legendary jubilee band, this watch is a stunner. Elegant, charming, and undeniably beautiful.
The Rolex Datejust 278273 with Champagne Diamond Dial
Looking for a little more gold on the wrist? Check out this classic configuration of champagne, diamonds, and yellow gold. A watch that will continue to look great for decades to come, yellow gold stands the test of time as it always has. Fitted with diamond indices, the dial is simple and clean yet elegant and tasteful. With this one, you can’t go wrong.
For Him
For most men, a new watch is enough to make us feel like a kid again. They’re fun, functional, and add a sense of accomplishment to our wrists. As the market is highly geared towards men, the options are a little mind-boggling. Here are two sport options that are a great place to start if you’re looking for something for the man in your life.
The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 126500LN with a Black Dial
The Cosmograph Daytona is arguably the most popular luxury sports watch to ever exist. The watch has had an incredible history including the endorsement of the actor turned race car driver, Paul Newman, which catapulted the watch into stardom. Watch lovers far and wide share an appreciation for this model and to own one is to love one. This new edition of the Daytona features a black dial with unmatched legibility and all the same charm as its predecessors.
The Audemars Piguet 15720ST Royal Oak Offshore Diver
Going big and bold, AP’s Offshore line has an unmistakable presence on the wrist. A thick case with hard lines and edges creates an inherently masculine look for this one-and-done sports watch. Featuring the iconic Mega Tapisserie dial, this particular version is rocking cool blue and gray tones that work with a variety of fits. Built like a tank, this piece can handle anything you throw at it on land or offshore.
For the Graduate or Young Business Professional
A watch can often symbolize an achievement or mile marker in one’s life, and for a proud parent, a child’s graduation or first great job is a moment you remember. Whether it’s your son or daughter, we have options to highlight the occasion.
The Rolex Oyster Perpetual 31 with Celebration Dial
Just as the name would suggest, the Celebration dial is here to do just that. A striking turquoise dial featuring an array of multi-colored bubbles, this piece is as fun as they come. The Oyster Perpetual line is an entry point for your first Rolex and works perfectly for a younger wearer. Not stuffy, and certainly not your grandmother’s watch, this piece feels young and full of life.
The Tudor Black Bay GMT 79830RB
Tudor has successfully produced high-grade luxury Swiss watches that don’t (necessarily) break the bank. Once an offshoot from Rolex, the brand has completely come into its own over the years and offers an excellent catalog of timepieces for a variety of consumers. The Black Bay line itself is iconic within the brand, offering 200 meters of water resistance as a standard. This GMT is one of their most successful models and can stand up to any challenge thrown its way.
For Retirement
So you want to get your mom or dad a nice watch to enjoy in retirement, or maybe just as a thank you for all they’ve done to raise you. Well, we’ve got you covered. For someone of this caliber, you’re going to need to go big. Something that compliments their experience and wisdom.
The Patek Philippe Calatrava 6119R
Looking beyond Rolex, Patek Philippe really makes a statement as one of the most revered and prestigious brands in the world. Looking through their product line, the Calatrava has stood the test of time and for good reason. A dress watch through and through, the piece is stunning in rose gold with a subtle silver dial that screams elegance. The brown leather band is rich and feels like a match for an esteemed gentleman.
The Cartier Panthère de Cartier Mini WJPN0020
Cartier never disappoints when it comes to dress watches. Dating back to the mid 1800’s, Cartier has established itself as a premier brand in the luxury market. Delving not only into watches but jewelry, too, their timepieces have an inherent beauty that’s hard to miss. This Panthère de Cartier is just as much a watch as it is a lovely bracelet. Composed of full rose gold, this rather dainty piece has a presence and stature that you might not expect – just like my grandmother.
The Executive Gift
Having a good fiscal year? It may be the time to show your executive team some love for all the long hours – and trust me, a watch is way better than a pizza party. The watch should be nice, but neutral enough to satisfy a variety of people. But whether you choose to give matching watches to the entire team, or you’d prefer to handpick timepieces for each executive’s personal taste, DavidSW has the selection and quantities in stock now to make their holidays bright.
The Rolex Datejust 41 Black 126300
The quintessential classic Rolex, the Datejust, is an excellent choice for your team. This particular variation features a black dial, stick indices, a smooth bezel, oyster band, and is made entirely out of stainless steel. It’s not trying to be anything it’s not, and it’s everything it should be. Simple, clean, elegant, and professional. A neutral dial that can be worn in any setting and a simple time and date to keep you on schedule. Care to make it even more personal? The caseback is the perfect place for an engraving.
