A watch is a leaving gift that marks the occasion properly. It is something someone wears daily and thinks about regularly. A quality watch actually keeps better time than a cheap one and it improves with age and wearing. The construction matters considerably because a watch is visible and handled constantly so poor quality becomes apparent immediately. The movement should be reliable. The case should feel substantial. The strap should be comfortable and well-finished. These work because they acknowledge someone important professionally without making assumptions about personal taste when you select a neutral metal and classic design. A boss wears this after they leave and every time they check the time they remember the role they held. These are the watches that feel like the proper farewell.
