A True Collector’s Watch

Unsigned ATP British Military

Unsigned ATP British Military

1stDibs is a wonderful place to buy watches. All I’ll say is that there’s a lot on offer, and it can get expensive. You need to know your man’s taste and have a gameplan.

If you want to get him a watch but don’t know what exactly he wants, historical significance is a great trail to follow. For example, a seller in London has this ATP watch listed. When WWII kicked off, the British Army needed a lot of watches for its troops, so it commissioned watchmakers to adapt civilian models to meet military standards. These are rare watches, really only made during the war. For that reason, any watch nerd would go wild for one.

For the Fitness Guy

Leatherology Barrel Gym Bag

Barrel Gym Bag

There’s a deep catalog of customizable leather goods he’d want on the Leatherology site. My favorite is this vintage-inspired barrel gym bag. Full leather feels luxe and will last a lifetime, but the shape makes it feel like he’s going to Muscle Beach in the ’60s.

Best Sunglasses to Gift

Persol Aviator Sunglasses

Aviator Sunglasses

Persol has the perfect Italian-made aviators. They’re more ’70s movie star, less Joe Biden on the campaign trail. It’s a good place to be, fashionably speaking.

The Most Practical Gift for a Man

Hanes Beefy T

On Sale

Beefy T

The expert gift-giving move involves some style horseshoe theory. He already has everything, so you should just give him a full refresh of basics. For me, that’s Hanes Beefy T’s. Buy him seven or more, and then he’s good on white tees for the next year.

Best Body-Wash Upgrade

Soft Services Comfort Cleanse

Comfort Cleanse

He’s got his skin-care routine dialed to Patrick Bateman levels, but he still uses Old Spice, or a trendy fragranced body wash, in the shower. Let’s fix that. Soft Services does body care with the same obsession that other brands do face care.

A Very Manly Skin-Care Gift

Antler Farms 100% Pure New Zealand Lanolin

100% Pure New Zealand Lanolin

Remember the “How often do men think about the Roman Empire?” meme? This is the gift for those guys. Lanolin, the fat that separates off processed sheep’s wool, is a miracle by-product that’s been used since ancient times. It’s the worlds best hand cream, lip balm, and hardcore moisturizer. Tell him all this as he opens it and he’ll love it.

A Spa-Level Robe

Brooklinen Super-Plush Robe

Super-Plush Robe

Here’s a fact that has been forgotten in the 21st century: Men love robes. Hop out the shower, shave, wrap up in luxurious Turkish cotton, and sit down with a drink. That sounds like a joke about Don Draper, but in reality it’s the ideal Wednesday night for most guys.
