What should I give to my father for his birthday? My dad has always wanted a watch. I want to ask if there is any bad meaning in giving a watch to my father.

Don’t worry about any bad connotations at all.

There are some strict rules in China. For example, newlyweds are not allowed to give umbrellas (三), and old people are not allowed to give clocks (end). These are all caused by homophonic pronunciation.

However, sending a son to his father is another matter. It's your job to take care of him till the end of your life, so you don't have any scruples about giving him a watch that his father likes.

As for the type of watch, I suggest you not consider it from the perspective of young people’s preferences. Middle-aged and elderly people like mechanical watches, steel straps, durable, and not too complicated. Don't consider the brand and buy A product, just seek truth from facts. What a son wants is sincerity.

For a few hundred to a thousand yuan, you can consider Seiko No. 5. For around two thousand yuan, you can consider Santos and other Swiss brands produced in Hong Kong after the acquisition of Hong Kong. For more than 3,000 yuan, you can consider Tissot. For high-end points, Plum Blossom , Longines is very good. Omega basically starts at 20,000 yuan, and Rolex starts at 30,000 yuan.

It doesn’t matter how much money you have, what matters is sincerity.

Since ancient times, filial piety has been in the heart but not in performance. If performance is in the family, the family will be poor and there will be no filial sons;
