A Grandfather Clock – For My Grandfather

Written by admin on December 23, 2009

First off, let me say, buying anything for my Grandfather is a hard task. He seems to have everything and his only real passion is golf. But, I remember when he retired he got this amazing clock that he just adored and it’s been my goal for quite some time to get him something that he’ll remember me by. I want him to walk by it and think of me, you know? I’m tired of getting him boring golf balls as gifts, etc. So, I’m thinking for his birthday that I might want to look into some grandfather clocks. So, I was doing a bit of research about them (cause I really don’t know that much) and I found out that you can have the clocks engraved – how cool is that?! So not only will it remind him of me when he sees it but I’ll also be able to put a special message on it as well. I think that’s a really cool feature, don’t you!?

Now it really just comes down to what style I want to get him. There are so many to pick from! I think what I’ll do is casually show him the clocks in conversation when he comes to visit, see which one he seems to focus on, and go from there. The Howard Miller clocks are my personal favorite so far – I have a feeling he’ll love em!
