Fathers Day Watches

Depending on where you are, Fathers Day has either been and gone or is coming up real soon. If it’s been and gone for you, then move along, nothing to see here, but if it hasn’t and it’s this Sunday, or the one after that or the one after that like most places, listen up.

Dads are pretty cool, so they deserve pretty cool gifts, like the new watch from Phosphor, Mann ‘Buzzin’ Appear. These watches not only have all the features that previous watches had, you can see them on our previous post, but new features where technology and design are crafted to produce a gift your father will love.

You can buy the Phosphor MANN ‘BUZZIN’ Appear watch from the Phosphor site

Public bikes for hipster fathers

Public Bikes for Father's Day The must have accessory for a hipster father is of course the bicycle, it just wouldn’t do to recycle anything that can be recycled in order to save the earth, only to undo all that hard work by polluting the environment with SUV fumes! I just imagine hipster fathers as college professors, with messenger bags slung over their shoulders, patches on the elbows of their tweed jackets, shaggy beards and black rimmed glasses, and ink stained fingers.

So for this Father’s Day, get that college professor in your life a bicycle, and while you are at it, take advantage of this great offer from Public Bicycles in the States; buy a bike and get a free rack and Kryptonite U-Lock!Their offer is valid through June 19 – Father’s Day. Neat huh?!?

Fathers, good or bad, have all taught us something. whether it’s what to do or what not to do and learning is always something to be celebrated. Sometimes it’s in March, but for most it’s in June, which makes this post very handy. I am planning on doing something really simple for my father, maybe just a coffee together as we haven’t done that in a while, but if you want to do a little something extra or get your father a gift of some sort, here are a few ideas.
