Cool Gift of the Day

What it is:
A custom watch with a face plate made from their favorite picture.
Why we love it:
Most people look at their watch a few dozen times a day. In fact, most of us look at our watch far more often than we need to just to tell the time. It's just something we do to center our thoughts, and to think about what comes next. If they've got something hanging off their wrist that they look at over and over again, why not give them a chance to look at something or someone who makes them really happy? This charming photo watch is just the thing. You send in an appropriate photo, select the band color you want and they create a custom watch, just for your recipient. Great for pictures of kids, pets or spouses, but you can also get creative with something like their favorite vacation spot, or perhaps a bunch of their favorite flowers. There are hundreds of possibilities, but whatever cherished person, place or thing you select, it's got to be more cheering than the usual blank watch face. This gift isn't so much about telling the time as it is about having a few dozen times a day reminder that there are lots of wonderful things out there.
