So you need a push present for dad, eh?
The reality is that men have very few ways to accessorize in a way that makes an impact. That’s why we love the idea of a fancy and functional timepiece.
The beautiful thing about a quality watch is that it can last decades if not centuries. Giving a new dad a push present gift of a watch has the potential to instantly become a family heirloom that can be passed down to future generations. Not only that, it is also practical. Because let’s be honest. Time management is not the strong suit of most men, and with the new baby, your guy will need all the help he can get.
Here are few watches that we recommend as a push present for dad.
