Father's Day gift idea: Timex timepiece

Timex

If you don’t have enough change in your piggy bank to splurge on the Omega Seamaster timepiece that Daniel Craig (the dreamy and most recent James Bond) carries, please do not fret. A timeless gift is still possible.

What it is: Timex Modern Originals Grande Classic watch. With over 150 years of history, the design team went into their vault (think: man cave) to gather inspiration for this collection and pay homage to its heritage.

Why we love it: The large face housed in a brass case gives it a hint of bling, and the handsome woven leather strap grounds it with simple elegance. A mix of modern and classic detailing, along with an extremely affordable price tag, this is a timepiece that any Dad would love to show and tell.
