The Best Gift Ideas for Men in 2022
Finding a Christmas gift idea for a guy with a refined taste and an appreciation for the finer things in life can be tough during a typical holiday season. Couple that with 2021’s turmoil and the fact that Black Friday ads bombard you every day of the week – a month ahead of schedule – and this year can be downright impossible.
Instead of guessing which Christmas gift he wants or rummaging through every single Black Friday ad, we here at Next Luxury are trying to point you in the right direction with this gift guide. And for those of you wanting to spoil yourself with a gift this year, you’re sure to find something also.
This list of Christmas present ideas is sure to make any guy smile, so without further ado, here are our top Christmas gift ideas for men in 2021.
Watches
Men love watches. Other than footwear, rings, and cufflinks, watches are the only way to accessorize ourselves and express our tastes. In fact, watches are so important to the guys at Next Luxury that we couldn’t lump them in with EDC or style. Here are our favorite choices for 2021.
Best Buy
1. Watch Gang Subscription
If you’re shopping for a special guy that loves watches, no matter the brand, size, or shape, then it doesn’t get any better than a subscription with Watch Gang. This innovative company brings a monthly, quarterly, or on-demand watch right to your doorstep without the hassle of haggling in-store.
The selection of watches ranges from luxury brands such as Rolex, Citizen, and Seiko to lesser-known collections and limited editions. There are different tiers of subscriptions, depending on how much you want to spend, along with no shipping (for US residents) or cancelation fees. Overall savings per month can be up to 70% off retail prices, which is just ridiculous in the current climate, making Watch Gang a standout when it comes to online subscription services.
As Christmas approaches, Watch Gang is feeling festive and is offering a discount of 30% off Black and Platinum Tier subscriptions from the 1st of December to Christmas Day. The code to get on the nice list during this period is GIFTNOW.
The holiday gift is not just limited to new users. From December 26th through New Year’s Eve, December 31st, anybody can use the code NWYR15 to receive 15% off The Wheel spin purchases. New users can benefit from 20% of all three subscription tiers with the code BIGYEAR1.
2. Omega Speedmaster
To refer to a watch as timeless might seem like an oxymoron, but the Speedmaster is truly a classic. While the design has evolved a bit since its original release in 1957, this chronograph still has the classic feel any guy will love. The Omega Calibre 3861 hand-wind movement has a 50-hour power reserve while the dial features three sub-dials displaying the 60 seconds, 30 minutes, and 12 hours. A deluxe wristwatch for the dapper gent.
3. Rolex Explorer
As the quintessential field watch, the Rolex Explorer is on almost any horology enthusiast’s Grail list. While a fairly simple watch design-wise, this Swiss watch goes with practically anything, from a suit and tie for the office to a shirt and chinos on date night. If your guy has a subdued style but prefers the finer things in life, the Explorer will look great on his wrist.
4. Orient Mako II
Orient proves over and over again that great watches don’t need to break the bank. It’s a great size with a sturdy build that is super durable. This awesome diver has everything you would expect from a high-end watch except for the killer price tag.
5. Seiko SNA411 Flightmaster
The Seiko Flightmaster is literally a modern-day classic. It’s a quartz-powered pilot’s watch with incredible styling, an ultra-functional (if not overly complicated) slide-rule bezel, and dual-zone or alarm functionality. It’s the perfect gift for aviation and horology enthusiasts.
Style
Classic items never go out of style. These top style gifts will have your guy looking, feeling great, and thanking you for noticing his fashion sense.
6. Asket The Sweatshirt
Winter is officially here and if your man is anything like me, sweats are the dominant style option when lounging at home. When it comes to comfort you can’t go past Asket’s originally named The Sweatshirt.
This remastered take on the classic sweatshirt is custom cut from unbrushed Egyptian cotton and features a soft loopback interior and a tailored fit that suits all body types. Available in six colors and coming in under $100, this is a great, functional, Xmas gift.

Crafted in a small factory in Portugal, these mid-weight trousers come in a range of sizes and colors and go well with a shirt and jacket or t-shirt and beanie for that more casual look.
8. Percival Sherlock Mac
Every man should have a Mac in his closet. A combination of a trench coat and a waterproof jacket, Macs are versatile and a must during the cold, wet winter months. Percivals take on the British staple is made from durable Italian cotton, is water-resistant, and above all, looks fantastic.
9. James Allen Engagement Ring
