At Red Army Watches, we believe that gifting a watch is more than giving time; it is sharing a story, a design philosophy, and a moment that lasts.
The RAW Gift Guide brings together our favourite mechanical watches by style, budget, and personality. From design-forward independents to cult-favourite microbrands, every pick is chosen for its story, craftsmanship, and how it feels on the wrist.
Whether you are shopping for a first mechanical watch, a seasoned collector, or treating yourself “just because”, you will find something here that feels just right.
These are the pieces that stop people mid-sentence. Unconventional dials, unexpected materials, and independent brands that dare to be different - perfect for the design nerd, the creative, or anyone who loves standing out without saying a word.
COMMUNITY FAVOURITES Tried, tested and loved by the RAW community
When in doubt, start here. These watches are our bestsellers and repeat favourites - pieces our community keeps coming back for, recommending to friends, and buying as gifts. If you want a “can’t go wrong” option, this is your safe (but still fun) bet.
Finding the right watch starts with knowing the person. Whether they love bold design, technical innovation, minimalist elegance or collectable independent pieces, we have curated watch selections that match the unique personalities of the people you are gifting.
Explore our personality-based picks and discover the watch that feels made just for them.
🌙 The Minimalist
For the person who believes simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. Elegant silhouettes, quiet colour palettes and uncluttered dials define these choices.
The SG60 is our tribute to home; a wedge-shaped LED timepiece inspired by vintage digital watches and designed with a distinctly Singapore soul. A fun, futuristic, under-$300 gift that brings heritage and nostalgia together in one collectible wrist piece.
Gift it to the design lover, the collector, or anyone who appreciates something meaningfully local.
A hands-on mechanical watchmaking class they’ll never forget.
Give something truly meaningful: an experience they build themselves. The Watch Academy takes participants inside the world of mechanical watchmaking as they assemble their own watch under expert guidance. Perfect for the curious, the creative, or the enthusiast who already has everything.
Thoughtful mechanical watches with friendlier price points
Great gifting doesn’t always require a big budget. This curated selection brings together mechanical watches that deliver strong design, craftsmanship, and story - all at exceptional value.
Perfect for first-time mechanical watch gifts, stylish upgrades, or simply giving something memorable without stretching the wallet.
Sometimes you just need to see a watch on the wrist. Visit us in-store and we will help you find the right piece based on who you are shopping for (even if that person is you).
