If yours is the kind of father who deserves to be spoilt and money is no object, then few gifts are likely to please him more than a shiny new luxury watch, and from Rolex and Omega to Patek Philippe, there’s a timepiece out there to suit all styles and tastes.

Most well-dressed men follow the general rule of thumb that less is always more, which means keeping it simple and sticking to a muted colour palette within their wardrobe, which means a carefully selected wristwatch makes for the perfect finishing touch for maximum impact without overwhelm. Avoid choosing anything overly ostentatious, and opt for a classic style that is guaranteed to stand the test of time. Rolex’s Daytona and Submariner are both enduring styles that any sartorial parent is certain to love.

A classic pair of Ray Ban sunglasses

There’s only one accessory that really counts during the summer months, and that’s a great pair of sunglasses. And for men of all ages, it really doesn’t get much better than a classic pair of Ray Bans. Choose some simple black Wayfarers or the timeless Aviator style in silver or gold – pay attention to the other accessories he wears to ensure you choose the right metal to complement your father’s tastes.

A polarised pair will protect his eyes from the sun’s harmful rays whilst also looking effortlessly cool with just about any outfit you can think of. The perfect gift for the dad who likes to enjoy those long, hot days in style.

A pair of designer trainers

Buying clothes for anyone other than yourself is a risky business, but shopping for shoes is far easier to get right. If you know his size and have a general idea of his taste, then it’s difficult to end up too far off piste, and a stylish pair of designer trainers is almost certain to please.

Avoid picking anything too laid-back, and look for classy styles that will work well with most smart casual attire. Balenciaga and Valentino garavani are both great places to start, and offer a broad selection of high-end footwear that effortlessly combines comfort with style.

A classy pair of cufflinks

Nothing adds quite the same air of sophistication to an outfit as a classy pair of cufflinks, and there’s just something about that subtle glint when you reach out to shake someone’s hand that instantly commands respect. Choose a simple gold pair to up-level his business outfits to whole new heights, or opt for a bold, diamond-encrusted pair for those special occasions. A gift he’ll keep hold of for years to come, he won’t be able to help but appreciate such a thoughtful choice.
