It’s true what people say that jewelry can speak when you can’t have the word. And sometimes, a person’s impression of you can be based on the piece of jewelry you wear. Further, pieces of jewelry are not only for aesthetic purposes but also for investment. Indeed, it is a wise investment as it appreciates over time.
But most importantly, jewelry preserves memories. It is certainly lasting, especially when gifted to you since you will surely feel valued and significant. These are the types of gifts that you will cherish for the rest of your life. Therefore, if you want your friends or loved ones to feel special or treasured, you may gift them with these three pieces of jewelry. For sure, they won’t forget you within their lifetime.
Customized Necklace
It’s one of the perfect gifts as jewelry because there’s some personal touch involved. You may have the necklace customized with the nickname of your giftee or the initials of his name.
Further, you can also choose a more elegant font for the name if your giftee exudes elegance and sophistication. If the necklace’s recipient is a bit wackier, you may opt to make the font look comical or artsy. It depends on you. The only important thing is that the customized necklace represents your giftee’s personality.
Diamond Wrist Watch
While the more common adage on diamonds is that “diamonds are a girl’s best friend,” it can also be said that “diamond wrist watches are a man’s best buddy.” Undeniably, men love wristwatches as a present to themselves and, more so, as gifts from others especially, when they are diamonds.
For instance, a diamond bezel wristwatch is timeless, classic, and elegant. It perfectly suits men who have high regard for formality and class. Thus, you’ll never go wrong with gifting a man close to you with this one.
Gemstone Ring
Typically, gold-filled rings are the ones given as keepsakes. But some appreciate the beauty of gems. Such that they love colored gemstone rings ranging from subtle pastels to bursting brights.The gemstone ring is another remarkable gift because of its uniqueness and rarity. Further, the colors of the gems make the ring more attractive and stunning.
In Conclusion
These pieces of jewelry hold the memories you and your gift recipient have. Jewelry as a present will surely last as it is one of the most precious pieces one can ever receive within his lifetime. It’s not only pretty to look at, but it also symbolizes bond, affection, and one’s worth.
Understandably, “Swiss” is a name of quality when it comes to impressive wristwatches. The Swiss movement is about excellence, precision, and luxury.Read the article to learn about your favorite brands that are known to outshine Swiss movement watches:
Patek Philippe Calatrava
This fine timepiece comes at a slightly higher price as compared to other Patek Philippe models. It wouldn’t be wrong here to mention that this brand master in the craft of watchmaking. And, you would not be surprised to witness its complicated movements in mechanical watches. Since the brand wanted to continue the Swiss movement legacy, it came up with the Calatrava—a real example of classic aesthetics. Due to its clean design and pure lines, the Calatrava is considered an ideal gentleman’s dress watch.
Zenith Chronomaster
In 1865, the Zenith brand was established to serve the watch needs of the young market segment, individuals at the age of 22 to 25. But now, the brand has gained a substantial market reputation by collaborating with LVMH—a multibillion-dollar conglomerate. Zenith, being a subsidiary of this massive corporation, has worked hard to ensure the legacy of luxury Swiss watches. It came up with the idea of Chronomaster, which is a perfect timepiece to hold onto pure art and engineering. It has open-worked dial and visible inner workings to beautifully display crafted movement design. In addition, the buyers can choose the color for a dial, bezel, and strap material, depending on your needs and personal preferences.
Classic Rolex Datejust
Rolex SA is a luxury watch brand—the manufacturing unit is based in Geneva, Switzerland. Initially, the brand was established in London, England, in 1905. However, later in 1908, the brand was registered, and further in 1915, it earned the name of Rolex Watch Co. Ltd. Since then, the Rolex watchmaker has continued to gain a strong market position in the watch industry. Rolex Submariner, Rolex GMT-Master, Rolex Daytona, and Rolex Datejust are some of the reputable watch models. However, the Classic Rolex Datejust is considered the perfect vintage-inspired watch with Swiss Movement. It is a sturdy, reliable, and very precious watch. This watch looks stunning due to the combination of gold and steel.
The Swiss Legend Triton Chronograph
Up next, I have theSwiss Legend brand on my list, as it is well-known to incorporate Swiss-made movements. This brand has always come up with the classic-looking, and the most exquisite Swiss-made timepieces. However, most of the Swiss Legend watches have to offer a sporty look. It is because the brand specializes in making watches to adequately serve the needs of individuals who have a great interest in diving, skiing, surfing, mountain climbing, etc. Therefore, Triton Chronograph is considered an impressive piece of work by the Swiss Legend. Originally, this watch comes with black dial, stainless steel chassis, and an attractive orange rubber strap.
Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso
Lastly, I have Jaeger-LeCoultre on my list, which is a well-established Swiss watch brand for men. It was founded in 1833. This brand has always been known for its luxury watches, hundreds of patents, and a multitude of proprietary movements. It would be appropriate here to highlight that Jaeger-LeCoultre is the true inventor of small movements in the world. It is also recognized for its most complicated watches like the Atmos clock. When it comes to inventions, Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso is one of the unique timepieces in the world. This watch has to offer functional design—a reversible case that can stand a tough swing of a mallet. Plus, the rectangular-shaped classic style of a watch is a perfect fit for both men and women.

We chose the historical Eberhard & Co. watches because they boast over a 130 years of research and passion. Since 1887 the Swiss brand has been synonymous with excellence and innovation, which are represented in precious timepieces with high technical content that have marked important stages: the pocket chronograph, the first wrist chronograph, right up to dual time watches.
Creations that stand out for their quality and style and that express the values of great Swiss tradition.
For this year give the gift with history and a lifetime of enjoyment, from Georges-Lucien Eberhard.
The 1887 Remontage Manuel comes in a 41.80 mm x 9.60 mm stainless steel case with a slim bezel to leave ample space to the elegant dial.
This is available in two variations: gold or rhodium-plated numbers and indices. The “clou de Paris” decoration and the trapezoidal date window, which has already been adopted by Eberhard & Co. for some historical models, add a retro touch to this model. The logo on the dial is part of the historical heritage and is documented in the archives of the early 1900s. The dial is completed by rhodium-plated or golden Roman numerals, rhomboidal indices, and Dauphine hands. The central second’s hand stands out for its blue color.
Entirely and exclusively produced for Eberhard in La Chaux-de-Fonds, the new Calibre EB140 is visible through the transparent sapphire crystal case-back revealing its beautiful finishes. The bridge for the balance wheel and the large bridge for the gear trains are decorated with a “circular wave” pattern. The screws are blued and the incisions are gilded. Beating at a frequency of 4 Hz (28,800 vibrations per hour), this movement offers a 40-hour power reserve.
In addition to the traditional alligator leather strap, the new model can be matched to a Jacquard silk strap, in two different versions combined with the two dials, produced exclusively for Eberhard by the Ulturale tie-maker, one of the best-known ambassadors of this historic Neapolitan sartorial tradition.
Water-resistant to 30 meters / 100 feet, the Eberhard 1887 Remontage Manuel Ref. 21028 has a price of Swiss Francs 3,640 with the silk strap or Swiss Francs 3,720 with the alligator leather strap.

You can use this to help you find great Christmas gifts for men this season or just for yourself! So, let’s get right to it…
What defines a stylish New Yorker?
What defines a stylish New Yorker? Well, NYC style is always about balance; combining style and comfort. Layer strategically, keep an eye on the weather, and balance relaxed pieces with more structured garments.
Make someone smile with a sleek watch
A stylish New Yorker needs a good watch, and this makes a great gift for someone this holiday season. For a long time now male watches have seemed to follow the tune of the bigger, the more prominent, the more elaborate – the better. Watches with big faces covered in diamonds have long been the way to go when it comes to making an impression with wrist jewelry. However, this coming season actually marks a shift away from this trend. In fact, autumn/winter 2019 is all about understated fashion and understated looks. Instead, men will be living by the motto ‘it’s the little things that matter’. Watches that are attractive yet are not ‘in your face’ will certainly be the most fashionable this winter.
Vintage clothing makes a stylish winter gift
If you are tired of the same old fashions being rehashed on the high street in NYC, then perhaps now is the time to try out something new. Or, to be more specific, perhaps it’s the time to go back to something old – vintage men’s clothes. These garments from yesteryear will not disappoint during winter in the Big Apple, making the perfect gift for any man. When searching for vintage clothes, from trousers and tops to scarves and jackets, you must have the ability to sort the good from the bad. Good quality pre-owned clothing for guys is available from a variety of places, including charity shops, markets, and auction websites. Nonetheless, locating hidden jewels at a competitive price in these places may be time-consuming and is often a thankless endeavor.
What’s a good gift for a New Yorker during the holiday season?
What are some cool gifts for guys? There are lots of great winter gadgets out there for men to make the most of! If you are going to be driving a lot, a foot-warmer mat can stop your feet from freezing over while stuck in traffic! Of course, a beverage warmer is essential too. You can even get a snow-melting stair mat! Or, what about heated slippers and a snowball blaster? There’s literally something for everyone! If you’re looking for something fun and unique with lots of personality, a gadget like the ones mentioned will work well, especially during the cold days and nights in NYC! A cozy USB warmer mouse pad is a great gift for someone who uses a computer a lot.
What does every man need in his apartment during the holidays?
There are a number of different things that every man needs to have in his apartment. This includes towels in different sizes, proper beverage glasses, a shoe rack, coat rack, and a good coffee maker. After all, we all need to kickstart the cold mornings with a cup of coffee. Or, if you want to make your life a bit easier, you can always buy a gift card for a home store so the recipient can choose their own home gifts. Or, what about a robot vacuum who will make their life a lot easier during the winter months? A Nutribullet Blender is another great gift for holidays, enabling people to make delicious smoothies so they can get all of the vitamins they need for the colder months!
So there you have it: the essential winter gift box. We hope you have found some great suggestions for you
