Father’s Day: #FeldmarFamily Staff Picks
Father’s Day is right around the corner and we’ve rounded up our best gifts for the occasion – picked by our very own #FeldmarFamily.
Ben Scheidt, our Sales Manager, went with the Breitling Chronomat B01 Copper. A true “dad watch,” this timepiece is just as reliable as a trusty pair of New Balances! The color and classic design make this one for the ages.
Edgar Abeshyan, one of our Sales Associates, chose the Zenith El Primero Chronomaster. According to Edgar, this in-house manufactured watch is one of the best watches that money can buy (and he’s seen a lot of them!).
Jimmy Inglish, our Customer Service Representative and Social Media Director, went with the OMEGA Professional Moonwatch. Not only did this timepiece travel to the moon, its design has remained unchanged for 50+ years. Dad will love the story behind it and the classic look.
My pick is the Breitling Chronomat B01 (Ben and I must have pretty great taste!). A Breitling can accompany you from the baseball field to a formal gathering all while accurately providing the time via one of their certified chronometer movements. This is particularly true of the next Breitling Chronomat collection.
Lorel Monroy, one of our Sales Associates, went with the Girard-Perregaux 1966 Orion. According to Lorel, dad deserves nothing less. I’d have to agree!
Freddy Yarmus, a Sales Associate, chose the Frederique Constant Slimline Moonphase. The timepiece is complex yet simple and absolutely stuns on an alligator strap.

Scott is very proud of the way Feldmar customers are put first: “We regularly go out of our way to meet the needs of our clients. A client once purchased a rather significant watch as a birthday gift for his brother who lived in New York. Our client asked how we were going to deliver the gift and we responded with the typical answer, we would ship it by FedEx. After we answered his question, we could tell that he wanted a more personalized experience for the delivery and offered to have it hand-delivered by one of our associates. He lit up at the thought, and so off went one of our associates to New York City for the day to hand-deliver the gift.”
