Montblanc Summit Lite Aluminium Black Smartwatch
If the gentleman you’re shopping for this Valentine’s Day 2021 is a tech-lover, then there’s no better luxury gift idea for him than the newly released Montblanc Summit Lite Aluminium Black smartwatch. Named after its lightweight design, this men’s smartwatch has been carefully engineered for active, social men looking for a high-performing wrist gadget. Its handsome all-black coated aluminium case is full of incredible smartwatch features including four trademark apps: the Cardio Coach, Body Energy, Sleep Tracker and Stress Tracker.
The Cardio Coach app has been designed to give you personalised workout recommendations based on your current fitness level while the Body Energy app tracks your mental and physical exhaustion to advise on when to take rest days or when to get up and moving. Meanwhile, the Sleep app tracks your sleep and gives you a detailed analysis about each phase you encountered, and the Stress app helps you get more clarity over your own body’s responses to stressful events. On top of all this, the Montblanc Summit Lite smartwatch comes with Bluetooth, WiFi and GPS connectivity, preloaded sports modes, music streaming and Google Pay payment system, all powered by Wear OS by Google.
IWC Pilot Mark XVIII Edition Le Petit Prince Watch
There’s not a single man out there that wouldn’t relish in the idea of receiving a luxury IWC watch for Valentine’s Day, and we’re not sure there’s a more versatile model than this IWC Pilot Mark XVIII Edition Le Petit Prince watch. Dressed in stainless steel, this pilot’s instrument pays tribute to Antoine de Saint-Exupery’s famous novel of the same name, something that is marked by the uniquely engraved case back and through the signature blue dial. It’s 40mm size is ideal for almost any wrist size while it’s large white Arabic numerals and luminous coated hands join the other pilot friendly characteristics for optimal use on land or in the cockpit.
The Schaffhausen-based manufacturer and their reputation for technical prowess is demonstrated on the inside of the IWC Pilot Mark XVIII Edition Le Petit Prince watch where the Calibre 35111 automatic winding movement is housed. The Swiss made calibre delivers central hands for hours, minutes and seconds, a power reserve of 42 hours and a high-precision frequency of 28,800vph. The men’s IWC watch is completed by a fine-link stainless steel bracelet with a folding clasp. The robust links in this metal band have been specifically tailored to mould to the contours of the wrist, fitting easily over the top of a flying suit. Likewise, the watch’s classic aesthetic means that it pairs well with all styles of attire.
Garmin MARQ Athlete Performance Edition Smartwatch
Another must-have Valentine’s gift for a fitness or tech lover, the Garmin MARQ Athlete Performance Edition smartwatch is in a league of its own, specifically designed for gentlemen constantly working to beat their own high score. It is the only luxury tool watch we know of that shows recovery time and VO2 max scales on the bezel, so you always have an easy-to-reach snapshot of your performance and progress. Its masculine aesthetic is made up of a 46mm lightweight titanium case and a breathable black rubber strap. As part of the Performance Edition, the MARQ Athlete also comes with a HRM Pro chest strap.
Named the “Athlete” for a reason, the Garmin MARQ Athlete Performance Edition smartwatch is fully kitted out for every style of sportsman whether you’re a runner, cyclist, swimmer, golfer or weightlifter. With bright, coloured maps on the wrist, turn-by-turn navigation, a wrist based heart rate monitor, Pulse Ox detector and GPS, there’s little more you could need in a fitness smartwatch. The Garmin MARQ Athlete is also one of the first to feature the PacePro function. The remarkable technology allows users to enter custom start and finish points and a target competition times. This means that the watch will tell you exactly how fast you should be aiming to run, cycle, swim etc to complete each mile and ultimately reach your goal.
Breitling Chronomat B01 42 Watch
Masculine yet elegant, high-performing yet comfortable, the Breitling Chronomat B01 42 watch is the perfect gift idea for those shopping for a man that requires only the best this Valentine’s Day. Inspired by a historic Breitling watch from 1984, the new Breitling Chronomat B01 42 pays tribute to its predecessor with a perfectly balanced aesthetic that is both vintage yet modern, something characterised by the reinstated vintage Rouleaux bracelet and the strong interchangeable rider tabs on the bezel. The 42mm stainless steel case also commemorates the original with the same integrated lugs, robust shoulders, and a bevelled rounded crown.
Housed within the Breitling Chronomat B01 42 watch is the indispensable Breitling B01 in-house automatic mechanical movement. The 47 jewelled COSC certified calibre provides classic central hands for hours, minutes and seconds, a date window at 6 o’clock and three subsidiary dials for continuous seconds, 12 hour counter and 30 minutes counter. The movement also promises a frequency of 28,800 vph and a power reserve of 70 hours. You can choose from an array of dial colours within the Breitling Chronomat collection, but we personally love this classic black dialled variant adorned with Superluminova hands and indexes.
TAG Heuer Carrera Heuer 02 Chronograph Watch
Last but certainly not least in our Valentine’s Day 2021 Watches for Him Gift Guide is this handsome TAG Heuer Carrera Heuer 02 Chronograph watch. Since 1963, TAG Heuer have dedicated much of their time to the adrenaline-filled world of motorsport with the TAG Heuer Carrera watch collection in particular highlighting their unbreakable relationship with the track. The unmissable aesthetic of this particular TAG Heuer chronograph is a perfect example of sports elegance, ideal for a man looking for a dress watch that can go straight from the office, to the racetrack to any formal occasion. It’s 44mm fine-brushed and polished stainless steel case comes equipped with a blue ceramic tachymeter bezel, anti-reflective treated sapphire crystal glass and a sophisticated stainless steel bracelet with push button folding clasp.
Turn the TAG Heuer Carrera Heuer 02 Chronograph over and witness the true avant-garde identity of the Swiss watch brand. Just like under the bonnet of a car, the case back reveals the timepiece’s own intricate and powerful engine, the Calibre Heuer 02 self-winding movement. Constructed of 168 components and 33 jewels, the automatic movement delivers hour, minutes and central chronograph seconds, date function at 6 o’ clock, 12 hour chronograph counter at 9 o’ clock, 30 minute counter at 3 o’ clock and a continuous second’s counter at 6 o’ clock. The TAG Heuer Carrera watch also treats us to an impressive power reserve of 80 hours.
