I’d like to buy him a graduation gift that he will keep for life. I suggested a nice watch. Maybe a TAG or even a Breitling


Don’t get him a Tag. The polish wore off that turd fifteen years ago.

I’d also suggest a Kurono Tokyo. The Japanese have surpassed the Swiss in finishes and movements. They always won the arms battle when it came to dials. It is pretty unlikely that he will run across someone else with a Kurono.

I also like German watches better than most Swiss Brands though they all use Swiss movements. I can highly recommend Circula. The price is right on those as well but if you’re spending a pretty good amount, there are some great brands. Dornbluth and Sohne for example, beautiful watches and it isn’t just another Rolex.

Because they are essentially made from unobtanium. It is kinda silly to suggest a Kurano to a non-watch geek who wants a want now. If you are going to suggest a Japanese watch brand as a gift Grand Seiko makes much more sense.

Sorry, but your post reeks of I just found the watch hobby. The objective portion of that declaration is categorically wrong.
