Silver Clip-It Pocket Watch with Magnifier*
This unique pocket watch doubles as a magnifier.
Never lose track of time again. The Silver Clip-It Pocket Watch with Magnifier is housed in a silver casing and runs on Citizen Calendar Movement, with compass direction points on the face and a swivel clip on the body so it attaches to any chain or loop. It goes on a belt loop, a waistcoat chain, a jacket ring or a bag strap, and it stays there. It is water resistant, which is the difference between a timepiece that lives in a drawer and one that goes out in the weather with you.
Open the glass front and the second half of it appears. Inside is a magnifier, ready to enlarge any reading material: the menu in a dim restaurant, the serial number on the back of something, the small print at the bottom of a page, a map in the passenger seat. It is a quietly useful thing to have on you, and it makes the watch a gift for anyone who appreciates the finer things in life rather than simply another accessory.
This stylish pocket watch will remind you of years gone by. Generations before handed pocket watches down as family heirlooms, and there is nothing stopping you from doing the same. Give one of these elegant watches to the special man in your life and let him be the first to start that tradition. Celebrate a promotion or an anniversary with one. It makes a great gift for Father's Day, or for any other time you want to honor the man who has made a difference in your life.
It is also a classy way to recognize a top achiever at work. Hand it out at your next corporate function as a reward for a valued employee, or acknowledge a teammate's hard work with one of his own. At a wedding it settles an old debt: the best man was in charge of one important thing, getting you to the church on time, and now you can thank him by making sure he is never late again. The pocket watch suits every man in the bridal party, and even the youngest of them understands what a real timepiece is.

Which one should I choose
Once you have decided on a pocket watch, the remaining choice is whether the gift should keep time, carry his money or carry his files, and whether his name goes on it.
| Silver Clip-It Pocket Watch with Magnifier | Choose it when the gift should feel like an heirloom and do more than one job: Citizen Calendar Movement, compass points, a magnifier and a swivel clip. |
|---|---|
| Personalized Modern Silver Money Clip | Choose that when the gift should carry his name and live in a trouser pocket with his folded bills. |
| Executive Silver Ball Point USB Pen | Choose that for someone who travels with files rather than a compass, and who wants his name engraved on it. |
| A wristwatch | Choose that when it should be worn and glanced at rather than drawn out of a pocket. |
For a father, a best man or a retiring colleague, the pocket watch is the one that gets handed to someone else in thirty years.
