Best Personalised Christmas Gifts for Him in 2025 (That He’ll Actually Use)
Why A Watch Strap Belongs Under The Christmas Tree
Finding a Christmas gift for him is never easy. You want something thoughtful, not predictable. You want something he’ll actually use, not another novelty that gets forgotten by New Year. That’s where a watch strap comes in, think personalisation, high quality leathers, sporty rubbers or seasonal tweeds.
Adding his initials, an engraved detail, or a subtle stamp turns an everyday accessory into something meaningful. It makes the difference between “just another gift” and something chosen just for him.
Here are our top picks for inspiration:
1. Monogrammed Leather Watch Strap
A leather strap already feels timeless. Add his initials, pressed by hand in gold, silver, or blind emboss, and it becomes a gift that carries a personal mark.
Perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, or as a Christmas gift for the man who has everything, a monogrammed strap is subtle, tactile, and ready to be worn every day.
2. Engraved Buckle On A Rubber Strap
If subtlety and sport is more his style, an engraved buckle delivers personalisation in a discreet way. Using precision laser engraving, his initials or a short character set are cut directly into the steel clasp.
Our Rubber Straps are excellent for Sport; Made from military-grade rubber, they are resistant to sweat, heat, and wear. Whether he is cycling, swimming, playing football, or hiking, these straps are built to handle it all while keeping his watch secure.
The result is a durable, understated gift that stays with him through years of wear — a personal detail hidden in plain sight.
3. Seasonal Tweed Strap
Christmas is a season of texture — knitwear, wool, and warm fabrics. A tweed strap captures that same feeling on the wrist. Paired with the right watch, it feels festive without being loud, and seasonal without being gimmicky.
Available in three colours and fitting lug widths from 18 mm to 22 mm, it is a versatile strap that improves any watch collection.
4. A Strap for His Rolex
If he owns a Rolex, you know he already appreciates detail. The right strap can refresh even the most iconic model. Our Sailcloth-Effect FKM Rubber Strap is built with a textured finish that echoes classic sailcloth but delivers the performance of military-grade rubber.
Sweat-resistant, heat-resistant, and made for everyday wear, it is a strap that looks sharp with a Submariner and feels ready for sport, travel, or daily life. Pair it with an engraved buckle for a discreet personal touch, and you have a Christmas gift that combines refinement, practicality, and individuality.

5. A Strap Bundle or Travel Set
Sometimes one strap is not enough. If he has a growing collection, a strap bundle gives him options to match different watches, outfits, and moods. It is the kind of gift that keeps him experimenting long after Christmas Day.
For those who are always on the move, consider a travel set. Our two-watch travel case comes with a strap tool, letting him carry his favourites safely and swap straps wherever he goes. Add a personalised leather strap to the set, and you have a gift that is practical, personal, and ready for his next journey.
