What Father's Day Means to the King Jewelers Family

A Glimpse Inside Father’s Day in the King’s Family

Dad, papa, padre, father, baba: in each language, this word has the same meaning around the world.

For many, their fathers have had a significant impact on their outlook and perspective on life. They taught them values, the difference between right and wrong, and how to treat others. For others, their dads played another role: they inspired their business practices. For the King family, this inspiration has been taking place for the last 5 generations.

“Each one of the boys has their own separate talents. David opened the King’s second jewelry store in Nashville while Jono took the Direction of Sales position in our Miami Location” says King Jeweler’s CEO and King family patriarch Scott King.
With Father’s Day just around the corner, we asked Scott, David, and Jono King to discuss their favorite memories of their dad.
“Besides sitting around the table telling funny stories,” Scott reminisces “…we loved our boating adventures to Fisher Islands, Ocean Reefs & The Bahamas.” He laughs and adds “We would just laugh while fishing off our dinghy.”

“I know the memories that I make with my children will be cherished, as I cherish the memories I made with my parents.” says Jono. “The success of a family business is in the family. The joy is in the family.”

Both Jono & David are passionate about watches, an appreciation they learned from their father. Scott remembers that his first watch was an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak, a timepiece he still enjoys wearing today.

“I taught my boys, respect, honesty, integrity and not to judge others; to be happy within your own skin” said Scott. This coming Father’s Day holiday is a reminder of the legacy that a father can create with his sons.

Luxury Gifts for Father’s Day 2019

Dad always seems like the most difficult person to shop for, which makes Father’s Day shopping a bit more difficult than desired. He has been there for you your whole life, so now it’s time to express your undying gratitude. This year, get Dad something a bit more luxurious to show him just how proud you are to call him yours. King Jewelers has put together an in-depth list of some of the most incredible gifts for Father’s Day 2019.

Montblanc Pen

If your dad has an office, you could get him a Montblanc pen that he can use every single day. Each time he picks up this pen he will be reminded of the myriad of memories you have made together over the years. Montblanc features a wide selection of classic and limited edition writing utensils to choose from. Therefore we have chosen one of each to add to this Father’s Day gift guide. The first one is this Limited Edition Homage to Homer Rollerball pen inspired by the story, Trojan Horse. The back clip resembles the shape of a spear, while the cone and rings showcase engravings of ancient Greek motifs. Then we have this classic Rollerball Meistruck pen that houses a small diamond in the shape of the Montblanc logo at the top.

Cufflinks

Another luxury gift for Father’s Day would be a pair of Deakin and Francis cufflinks. Cufflinks are one of the few ways men can express their hobbies or personality in the workplace. Deakin and Francis have a large collection of classic and animated cufflinks to choose from. This way, you can ensure that you will find a pair of cufflinks that best describe him. These square yellow cufflinks will add a vibrant touch to his ensemble, while these revolver-shaped cufflinks would thrill any man who loves to shoot or collects guns.

Crystal Decanter

If your dad enjoys fine liquor, King Jewelers has a variety of crystal decanters from Deakin and Francis to choose from. Decanters can be used to hold any type of liquor, preserving the flavors for years to come. One of our favorites showcases a bald eagle on the lid. The detailed wings and golden beak make this exceptionally breathtaking. Each decanter comes protected in a beautifully-packaged branded box that can be used as a keepsake.

John Hardy Jewelry

You could also get Dad a piece of John Hardy men’s jewelry. John Hardy jewelry is crafted by hand, using the techniques of ancient Balinese artisans. Many of the pieces are inspired by nature and the eternal connections we make with one another. We think this John Hardy Legends Eagle ring and pendant necklace, featuring a turquoise stone, would make an excellent gift. The sterling silver wings are detailed to resemble those of an eagle and creates a contrast against the pop of color of the turquoise. This set is not only fashionably modern but also reflects a sense of bravery that often surrounds the Eagle.

TUDOR Blackbay S&G

You could always get Dad a new timepiece for Father’s Day. King Jewelers has one of the largest selections of timepiece designers in our Nashville and Miami stores. Discover over 25 different watch brands to choose the perfect gift for the Dad in your life. King Jewelers chose to highlight this TUDOR Blackbay S&G. This dive watch features a black dial in a stainless steel case. It also depicts gold details on the crown, as well as surrounding the unidirectional bezel. On a distressed leather strap, we admire the black and gold tones that tie everything together. For other watch ideas under 5,000 dollars, check out our blog, titled “Best Watches for Father’s Day Under $5,000.”

Watch Accessories

King Jewelers also has a wide selection of watch accessories for those of you who have watch-collecting dads. We have an assortment of watch rolls and travel cases to choose from. Therefore, no matter where he goes, his watches are safely stored. We also have Orbita and Wolf watch winders that come in handy when he doesn’t wear his watch on a daily basis. If he already has a watch that has a removable strap, you could always invest in alternative straps for him to change out for specific events or outfits.

Jaquet Droz Dad 101: Do You Really Think Dad Needs Another Tie?

Posted on June 14, 2011 by Make Technology

Father’s Day is on Sunday, June 19th this year and Jaquet Droz is here to help you with choosing something a little different for your dad, something he’ll be sure to treasure for years to come.
Did you know that Jaquet Droz started off as a family business with Pierre Jaquet Droz and his son Henry-Louis? Henry-Louis joined his father in 1769 after he finished his studies in mathematics, physics, science, and art in the Academy of Nancy. The business quickly spread as they opened a second workshop in London in 1774. The bond of a father and son is what built Jaquet Droz and we would love to share that bond with your family!

For the Classic Dad: The Grande Seconde

Through the majestically intertwining and subtly off-centered time indication, the fascinating alternations of Arabic and Roman numerals and the union of two circles evoking the mathematical symbol of infinity, the Grand Seconde asserts its powerful personality through white or red gold cases in a diameter of 43 or 39mm.

For the Sporty Dad: The Grande Seconde SW

Sporty, impulsive, yet classically distinguished, the Grande Seconde SW personifies the very values of Jaquet Droz. With a fluted bezel, hollowed horns, and a strap in vulcanized rubber, the audacity of the sporty design combines modernity with the robustness of a case in red gold or in steel with ceramic.

For the World Traveling Dad: The Twelve Cities

London, Geneva, Istanbul, Moscow, Dubai, Aspen, Mexico, New York, Shanghai, Tokyo, Sydney, Azores . . . each city has its pulse, its tension, its special times. Simply by pressing a pushbutton at 2 o’clock, the cities and their respective times appear in the apertures on the subdial.

For the Retired Dad: The Grande Heure

No two identical beings exist: for Jaquet Droz the essence of each individual is a source of wonder, imagination, and creation. The Lancine hand of the Grande Heure is the ultimate expression of such uniqueness. This timepiece is also the fruit of a seemingly unbelievable vision: to live time differently and to appreciate it in a new light.

For the Dad with Everything: The Tourbillon

Breathtaking, elegant, precise, and freed from the earth’s gravitational pull . . . the tourbillion accomplishes an extraordinary watchmaking feat: to bring together the peak in technical prowess with an aesthetic that is constantly beign recreated. With its legendary complication set at 6 o’clock, the genius of the craftsmen of La Chaux-de-Fonds is set free from the constraints of gravity. The hours and minutes dial magnifies the contrast: the ethereal softness of the silver endowed with sparkling clarity, and the mystery of the black opaline . . . an interplay of colors, concentrated onto a reduced surface – 44mm diameter – and produced in a limited edition of just 28 pieces.
