This year’s Highsnobiety Gift Guide is all about the presents that’ll make a difference in these new and strange times. From gifts that encourage connection with loved ones, to self-love suggestions you entirely deserve at the end of 2020.

Some gifts are timeless. So failproof that they can pass, in one form or another, as a gift for every single person in your family. A watch, for example. Everyone can get use out of a watch and, with so many different types of timepiece, there’s a watch to match most styles. From grandma down to younger brother, BREDA's time-spanning collection is more versatile than most thanks to the brand’s commitment to the classics but willingness to experiment, too.

To prove the universal appeal of BREDA, we’ve rounded up the perfect watch gift for everyone in the family, one by one. So, from the classics like Visser to colorful, modern timepieces like PLAY, here’s your definitive gift guide to the best watch gifts this Christmas.

BREDA's Virgil watch is about as classic as watches come, which is why it's suitable for multiple family members. This one's ideal for dad thanks to a sophisticated lizard-embossed leather strap that will age with grace, much like him.

For your sister - BREDA Esther

A full rose-gold outfit gives this iteration of Esther a more contemporary aesthetic without altering the pared-back style of the watch itself. It stands out more than silver on the wrist, but it doesn't dominate the look.

For your brother - BREDA Visser
