5 reasons why a watch is the perfect gift

Despite the fact that we all have multiple devices constantly reminding us of what time it is, the interest in wristwatches is booming. If you are considering to give a watch as a present to a loved one we have compiled five reasons to why you should.

1. A watch displays the wearer’s personality Nowadays we all have the same phones, we drive the same cars and buy our clothes from the same stores almost regardless of what country we reside in. A wristwatch is the perfect way to display a glimpse of your personality in an otherwise generic world.

2. It’s actually a good thing if they already have one Unlike a Playstation or a phone it doesn’t matter if the receiver already has a wristwatch. Quite the contrary; gifting a watch to someone who usually wears one is even better. All watches are different and can be used at different occasions. And as all watch lovers know: Some days you simply feel like wearing a specific watch - having several to choose from is nothing but good.

3. A watch is much more than a gift There are countless of watchmakers and watch enthusiasts around the world that have had their passion ignited by a watch they were given or inherited. Our own founder, Øyvind Von Doren was gifted a Swiss Made watch by his great-grandfather at the age of 12 in 1975. Little did his great-grandfather know that Øyvind would establish his own watch brand 41 years later.

4. A watch helps you remember (more than the time) A wristwatch is a great way to express your love for someone. Not only when they receive the gift, but the receiver will also be reminded of it every time they take a glance at their watch. Name another gift that reminds you of someone's love countless times each day. We’ll wait.

5. Watches come in so many variations The amount of different watches available today is massive. Regardless of taste and budget you will always be able to find something that fits your wishes. Whether the lucky person wears a suit, uniform or a track suit you can rest assured that the perfect watch is out there - you just have to find it.
