On By Sangamon DockIn Microbrand Watches

Gift giving is a special way to show your family and friends how much you care about them. However, finding the perfect gift can be challenging, especially when you want to give something unique and memorable. A watch is a classic and practical gift that can be cherished for years to come. In this blog, we will share tips for choosing a unique watch as a gift, with a focus on Sangamon Watches, which share American history through their unique collections.

  1. Consider the recipient’s style: When choosing a watch as a gift, consider the recipient’s personal style and taste. Do they prefer classic or contemporary designs? Are they more likely to wear a dress watch or a sport watch? Consider their wardrobe and lifestyle when selecting a watch that suits their personality and needs.
  2. Choose a unique brand: To give a truly unique gift, consider a brand that has a special story or heritage. Sangamon Watches, for example, is a brand that celebrates American history through its collections. Each watch is named after a person or event from American history and is accompanied by a booklet that tells the story behind the watch. This adds a personal and meaningful touch to the gift.
  3. Pay attention to the details: When selecting a watch as a gift, pay attention to the details that make it special. Sangamon Watches, for example, feature unique designs and materials, such as wood and leather straps, that set them apart from traditional watches. Consider the size, color, and material of the watch, as well as any special features that make it unique.
  4. Consider the occasion: The occasion for which you are giving the watch as a gift can also influence your choice. A watch with a formal design, such as Sangamon’s Lincoln’s River collection, can be a perfect gift for a graduation or job promotion. A more casual watch, such as Sangamon’s Route 66 collection, can be a great gift for a birthday or holiday.
  5. Choose a trusted retailer: When purchasing a watch as a gift, choose a trusted retailer that offers a wide selection of high-quality watches. Sangamon Watches, for example, is sold through its official website and through select retailers. Choose a retailer that offers excellent customer service and a warranty or return policy to ensure that the recipient is satisfied with their gift.

In conclusion, choosing a unique watch as a gift requires thoughtful consideration of the recipient’s style, the occasion, and the brand’s story and heritage. Sangamon Watches, with their focus on American history and unique collections, can be a perfect gift for family and friends who appreciate quality and meaning. By paying attention to the details and choosing a trusted retailer, you can give a gift that is both practical and meaningful.

Sangamon Watches: Timeless Classics Redefined by Springfield Entrepreneurs

On By Sangamon DockIn Microbrand Watches, Sangamon Illinois, Sangamon Watch Ambassador Program

Wristwatches have been a popular fashion trend for over a century, and despite the advances and digitization in the watch industry, the classic analog watch remains a symbol of style and luxury. Sangamon Watches, a new wristwatch brand based in Springfield, Illinois, embodies this timeless tradition and fuses historical elegance with modern designs.

Founded by Brian Su and Tyler McKay, Sangamon Watches was created with a purpose in mind. The brand aims to tell a story through each watch, blending classic design with state-of-the-art technology to preserve the timelessness of the wristwatch. The company’s headquarters in Springfield pays homage to the Illinois Watch Company, which was based in the city during the late 19th century. The name “Sangamon” is a tribute to the Sangamon River and its connection to Abraham Lincoln’s early life and career.

Sangamon Watches has successfully launched three collections, despite the challenges posed by the pandemic in 2020. The Clara Barton Collection, the company’s first line of watches designed specifically for women, pays homage to the Civil War nurse and founder of the Red Cross, Clara Barton. The 761st Tank Battalion Collection, aimed at college-aged customers, was inspired by the first African American armored unit in World War II. And the Grand Expedition Collection features a diver watch inspired by the Lewis and Clark expedition, with an engraved depiction of their journey on the back of the watch.

Brian and Tyler, the founders of Sangamon Watches, are committed to producing high-quality watches that stand out in a crowded market. By limiting production of each design, they ensure exceptional care and attention to detail. This approach has garnered widespread appeal, particularly during the pandemic as the shift to online sales has made it easier for customers worldwide to purchase and appreciate their unique watches.

Sangamon Watches has received glowing reviews from customers in the US, UK, Mexico, and Canada, and has been recognized for its commitment to producing quality over quantity. The brand has also remained connected to the local community, donating to over fifteen local charities. The success of Sangamon Watches is a testament to the world’s appreciation for craftsmanship and products with a sense of story, even in a modern market dominated by fast-fashion and cheap goods. With positive reviews from customers worldwide, Sangamon Watches is well on its way to becoming a global market leader.
