8 Watch Picks for Father’s Day

Watch collecting can feel like a solitary pursuit at times; often we’re reading, searching and lusting after watches for ourselves. Yet, occasionally we are tasked with looking for a watch for someone other than ourselves. And so, in the lead-up to Father’s Day in Singapore and Malaysia, we’ve pulled together 8 different watches for 8 different types of fathers – from sporty dive watches to complicated sculptural watches from independent artisans.
