Father's Day has been celebrated in Finland every year on the second Sunday of November since the 1960s. The timing of this special day was borrowed from our western neighbor Sweden, where the idea was that Father's Day would bring light into the middle of the dark season. The Swedes were really onto something – after all, what could bring more joy and brightness into the cold, dark days of November than a father's smile?
What should you give as a Father's Day gift to put a smile on your dad's or grandpa's face this Father's Day – and long after it too? The everyday heroes in our lives deserve to be remembered with warm words and quality time together, crowned with a thoughtfully chosen gift. A HAVU wooden wristwatch is a durable and distinctive Father's Day gift for a man who appreciates style and quality – one that brings lasting joy and serves as a daily reminder of the person who gave it.
A WOODEN WRISTWATCH AS A FATHER'S DAY GIFT
Dad, daddy, pops, grandpa – there's no one in the world quite like your own father, and that's reflected in all the different names we have for him. Just like our beloved fathers and grandfathers, every HAVU watch has a completely unique surface pattern. In our online shop, you'll find our striking men's wristwatches, crafted only from the finest types of wood.
Operating under the Finnish flag matters to us, and so does Finnish design and domestic wood species. It's been a tradition to raise the flag on Father's Day for decades now, and in 2019 fathers even got their own official flag day. Would your dad appreciate a Korpi automatic wristwatch made from Finnish birch, a stunning Harju chronograph, or an Aava decorated with curly birch? In our selection, you'll also find our other classic models featuring striking wood species from around the world.
Whatever your dad's taste, you'll find a wristwatch in our shop to complete any outfit, whether for everyday wear or special occasions. You can explore our full range of men's HAVU watches here.
