Ideally, a good Valentine’s Day gift is something that the recipient would love to have but might not go out and buy just for themselves.
If you’re looking for one that'll blow your partner away, a beautiful, well-constructed watch is a great way to achieve your desired result.
Jomashop is a company committed to helping customers find value in their quest for a fine piece of wristwear, offering a wide variety of name brands at competitive prices. If you’re about to invest a good amount of money in a watch, it’s a good idea to check out their prices before overpaying.
We recently asked Chaim Posen, marketing director at Jomashop, to put together a list of some of the most desired luxury men’s watches this Valentine’s Day. You can find his picks and thoughts below.
Editor's note: If you're considering dropping big money on a luxury watch, as with any other major purchase, be sure to compare prices and do some research first. While all of the watches are guaranteed to be 100% authentic, they do not come with a manufacturers warranty. If you have any concerns at all, you can view Jomashop's full warranty policy here.

IWC
From the Pilot series (originally launched in 1936), the 3777 was most recently updated in 2016 to give it a cleaner look. The watch features a chronograph dial and comes with a luxurious Santoni black leather strap. This piece from IWC should retain its value and style for many years to come, making it a top gift pick.

Omega
The Omega DeVille series is one of Omega’s little-known secrets. While most associate Omega with the Seamaster and Speedmaster collections, the DeVille offers the same excellence while providing an edge of vintage luxury rarely seen. Perfect for formal occasions, the DeVille Prestige features Omega's Calibre 2500 automatic movement with a 48-hour power reserve and comes in three dial colors: Black, White or Blue.

This watch features an automatic movement with a 38-hour power reserve, scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, and is available at a bargain price of just $669. It's a deal that's tough to beat.
