Quick answer: A personalised watch is one of the few graduation gifts that's both useful and lasting. Engrave the year, the subject or a short message, and every time they check the time there's a reminder of what they achieved and who was proud of them. Ours are £99.99 to £139.99 with free engraving on quartz models.

Why a watch suits graduation

Graduation is a proper turning point, whether it's university, an apprenticeship or a postgraduate course. A watch connects that moment to everyday life, and it's something they'll take into their first job and beyond.
