If you’re looking for a regal accessory for the Groom, look no further than a double hunter pocket watch.

While looks set this watch apart thanks to its regal sophistication, the double hunter pocket watch is a signature item with symbolism behind it. Read on to find out why a pocket watch or wristwatch makes the ideal gift for the groom on his wedding day.

What Is a Double Hunter Pocket Watch?

First and foremost, what is a double hunter pocket watch?

You’ve likely seen pocket watches before, but what is a double hunter and why do you want to know about it? It’s a pocket watch — but 100x better. :)

It is a timepiece with casing on the front AND the back of the watch. The “double” refers to how it opens on either side, which offers the wearer the ability to open up the back of the pocket watch to see the mechanical movements inside. When the casing is open, the double hunter pocket watch can stand up on its own and be placed in the office or on your nightstand or bureau.

Here’s a stunning example:

But what makes it an excellent gift for the wedding day? Besides its charm and good looks, this timepiece is well-known for its symbolism.

A watch or any timekeeping device represents “invaluable gift of time”. That is why year after year, a watch or timepiece makes the most poignant gift to give the groom on his wedding day. It is a way to show you how special this time of your life really is and teaches you to revel in it and cherish the moments you have together. It also lends itself to the symbolism of the future time you have yet to create together, a beautiful sentiment.

Now that you know its meaning, let’s talk about why this sophisticated pocket watch is such a beauty. First, it takes you back to an era where craftsmanship and timeless sophistication meet.

Rather than a modern timepiece centered on minimalism, these intricate watches are a statement of style and a nod to history. This makes them an heirloom-quality accessory that isn’t just something to carry along in your pocket.

Instead, it’s a timepiece to showcase or display!
