The Watch Gift Guide: How to Choose the Perfect Watch for Him or Her

A watch is one of the few gifts that is used every single day – and remembered for years. Whether it is for a birthday, anniversary, wedding, graduation or Eid, these simple questions will help you choose a watch they will truly love.

1. What is their style?

  • Classic and elegant: a clean dial, slim case and leather strap or steel bracelet.
  • Sporty and active: a diver or chronograph with good water resistance.
  • Fashion-forward: statement designs, gold or rose-gold tones, crystals or bold colours.
  • Minimal: simple dials with few details – timeless and easy to wear with everything.

Tip: look at the jewellery, belts and bags they already wear. Silver, gold or rose gold? Match the watch to it.

2. How will they wear it?

For daily wear at work and outdoors, choose a durable watch with at least 50 m water resistance. For special occasions, a dressier piece makes the gift feel extra meaningful.

3. Choose by budget

  • Under ৳10,000: reliable everyday watches – Casio, and selected fashion pieces – perfect for students and first watches.
  • ৳10,000 – ৳30,000: fashion favourites such as Michael Kors, Emporio Armani, Fossil, Guess and Tommy Hilfiger, plus Seiko and Orient automatics.
  • ৳30,000 – ৳1,00,000: Swiss and Japanese quality – Tissot, Hamilton, Citizen, Mido and Seiko Presage – watches built to last for many years.
  • ৳1,00,000 and above: luxury icons such as Longines, Tudor, Omega and Rolex – a gift that can be passed down.

Gift ideas for her

Elegant, slightly smaller cases (28–36 mm) with mother-of-pearl dials, rose-gold tones or delicate bracelets are always popular. Tory Burch, Michael Kors, Swarovski and Tissot ladies’ models make beautiful gifts.

Gift ideas for him

A versatile 38–42 mm watch that works with both office and casual clothes is the safest choice – think a Tissot PRX, a Seiko automatic, a Hamilton field watch or a classic chronograph.
