Here we are in the most jolly of months, the first month of winter (for some), December. Christmas is coming, so let me ask you this: what about Christmas gift ideas? As time flies by, with or without our astonishing instruments that keep track of it, let's make sure we have everything covered and we have the list prepared for Santa. The earlier we make up our mind, the better, as I'm sure nobody likes that pesky holiday rush, online or offline.
In this post, I'll try and give you a few tips, a few Christmas gift ideas, for the watch aficionado, of course. As I've been telling you in a previous post, I'm not going to talk only about replica watches. I've said it many times before and I'll say it again – the purpose of replica watches is to fill up the gap created by those insane prices. If you can afford a genuine watch, more health to you! But a replica watch is a great backup or even a main watch, which you carry around when travelling, going for a long night out and so on.
Today, I'll make a list with a few of my favorite genuine watches/ watches brands that would make awesome Christmas gift ideas. We'll be talking about replica watches in a future post, when I'll try and find discounts and such, like the perfectwatches promotions that will surely be of interest. Of course, I'll be talking about watches on a budget now, as previously discussed. The budget is $1000, best watches under $1000. Also, I won't include all my recommendations in this post, I'll save some for future articles, as I don't want to baffle you with so many Christmas gift ideas, that can be confusing, so let's make it 3 solid choices. Maybe we'll also work on the budget, I count on you for that. Perhaps under $500? Or more than $1000? I'm waiting for your comments and I'll let you decide the budget for next time, but for now, let's make it under $1000.
Christmas Gift Ideas – Best Watches Under 1000 $
Junghans Max Bill, Junghans MeisterI'm a big, big fan of Junghans and I think they make great Christmas gift ideas. If you're not that familiar with the brand, there's something called Le Google. To give you a hint, think Bauhaus, think simple lines and these two collections are perhaps the most representative.
For under $1000, you can get your hands on almost any Max Bill, from manual winding to automatic movement. However, I think the automatic Max Bill Chronoscope is a little over the budget, but even so, not by much. The same goes for the Meister collection, well under the budget (about $750) for the simpler models. Whichever you go for, they are both beautiful watches that will never go out of style and there's something about them, I don't know exactly what, that draws a lot of attention, even from people that are not very passionate about watches.
Tissot Chemin Des Tourelles Automatic
Maybe Tissot isn't exactly luxury, but it's a brand with a lot of history behind and they make reliable, affordable watches. Some even look great, like this one. The Tissot Chemin Des Tourelles is perhaps on the dressier side, but I don't think that counts as a problem, especially when you get a reliable, automatic movement in the price – about 700-750$.
Victorinox Swiss Army Officer's Automatic / Maverick
Victorinox is one of my favorite affordable watch brands, even without the “affordable”. These watches have an outstanding quality/price ratio and are some of the most reliable timepieces around. I lean towards the Officer, but both these watches are great, without any doubt. Automatic movements, Swiss, what do you want more for $700?
Alright, I guess I'll leave it at that for now and continue the idea in a future post. I'm counting on you guys to set budget for next time, when we'll continue talking about some affordable watches under the limit of your choice. For replica watches, don't forget to keep an eye out for perfectwatches promotions and if you find any other worth looking at, please do share. I'll also be happy to give you the link to these few watches, the best deals I was able to find.
That being said, I'll come up with more Christmas gift ideas next time and I encourage you to leave your comments if you believe I left something out.
