Chronograph Watch

A chronograph complication adds a stopwatch function to a timepiece to measure elapsed time. They are versatile watches that can be worn daily and are ideal for those who like to stay active and time their activities. Chronograph watches make great graduation gifts as they represent a graduate's new beginning and their busy and productive lifestyle. For example, this Rado Hyperchrome features a modern and sophisticated design, scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, and a high-tech ceramic bracelet.

Stainless steel, blue dive watch by Bulova

Diving Watch

Built to withstand the pressures of underwater environments, dive watches are designed for water sports and activities. They typically have high water resistance and feature a unidirectional bezel to track elapsed time underwater. Dive watches make superb graduation gifts for those who enjoy swimming, snorkeling, or diving. This Bulova Marine Star is an excellent example of a dive watch. With its sturdy stainless steel case, water resistance up to 100 meters, and rotating bezel, this watch is perfect for the graduate who loves to explore the underwater world.
