Men's watch guide with Anton Jewellery

I visited my friends at Anton Jewellery the other day to view their current men’s watch collection, in time for Father’s Day. I must say, I do envy the men’s range as I love wearing large face watches myself and to be honest, I found it so hard to narrow down a small list for you of my favourites as there are so many good pieces across all the Anton stores to choose from. I think this bunch is a great mix of all price points and styles and I HAD TO include the stunning clock in this edit because I think it is such a sophisticated gift for a man and great ‘home investment’ and family heirloom for a father to give his children.

See below the details of the watches I chose above and for those featured in the photos I took, the exceptional staff at Anton Jewellery would be excited to assist you further.
