Our fathers aren’t always the most vocal. Instead of voicing their appreciation or concern, at times, they’ll do so in their own way by getting you the pint of ice cream you’ve been talking about for weeks or cooking you the dish you recently saw on YouTube.
This Father’s Day, it’s time to reverse the script and get your dad a gift he’ll appreciate but never expect.
From a brand-new speaker to a wardrobe refresh, these gift selections will make your Father’s Day celebration a bit more special.

A watch for any occasion
They say, ‘the watch makes the man,’ and what better gift to give dad than a timeless piece he can wear anytime, whether it be on a formal wedding or a Sunday lunch outside.

The Pyperville Watch comes with a rugged 46mm case and a layered multi-dial face accented with earthy tones.
The Raynham Watch comes with dual time and chronograph features, making it an ideal timepiece for the on-the-go traveler.
