SHOP MAGNIFICENTLY HOW TO BUY THE PERFECT WATCH By Kyle Owen, Tourneau Whether you’re seeking a gift or a present for yourself, a timepiece is a powerful choice sure to last for generations. Here are key questions that gift givers should keep in mind.

WATER TOWER PLACE IN CHICAGO CHICAGO SPORTS TO BROADWAY THEATRE TO AMERICAN GIRL Water Tower Place, Chicago’s premier shopping, dining and entertainment destination, features a stunning eight-level atrium with Macy’s and more than 100 shops, restaurants and cafes—many of which are exclusive to downtown Chicago. Located at the pinnacle of The Magnificent Mile on North Michigan Avenue, Water Tower Place is within walking distance of the city’s favorite attractions, museums and hotels. Macy’s provides an outstanding collection of famous brands and designer labels and other favorites, including Lacoste, Sephora, Coach, Tourneau, Henri Bendel, CUSP by Neiman Marcus and more. The LEGO store and American Girl Place top the shopping lists for the young and young at heart. Unique dining options include Foodlife, Mity Nice Bar & Grill and M Burger. Baseball fans head for Harry Caray’s 7th Inning Stretch Restaurant & Bar on the seventh level to enjoy casual dining for groups and individual travelers, surrounded by HDTVs and an atmosphere of baseball past and present. Next to Harry Caray’s is the Chicago Sports Museum, offering a highly interactive experience exploring the legends and lore of Chicago sports. It combines high-tech interactive experiences, including skill challenges and simulated experiences, with an impressive collection of sports memorabilia and artifacts.

1. What’s the occasion? It could be a gift for a promotion, a push gift or a birthday. A high-quality timepiece will fit the occasion perfectly and become an essential accessory. A watch is meaningful and, when well maintained, it can be kept for generations. 2. What’s your budget? Decide what you are comfortable spending. High-quality timepiece prices can range from several hundred dollars to many thousands. Pick a number you would like to match, but be willing to spend 20–30 percent higher for something that you love. 3. What’s the style? This is a difficult decision. If the person wears a Breitling to work and a CASIO G-Shock on the weekend, they trend toward more sporty timepieces. Do you match the sporty style they are already wearing, or do you venture out into a dressy or Avant-garde timepiece? Whatever you decide, it is sure to impress. 4. Where will it be worn? Think about whether or not this person will wear the timepiece to work or only for special occasions or weekends. If for the weekend, think about what activities your recipient participates in. An adventuresome watch with multiple functions may be perfect. If the timepiece is more for dress occasions, think about what color metal will match the person’s jewelry, wardrobe and aesthetic preferences. 5. How will you present it? Brands have their own signature style of packaging. However beautiful the packaging is, nothing trumps the look of surprise when the watch is disguised as something else! For more information, contact tourneau.com.

For visitors looking for a more cultured experience, Water Tower Place is also home to Broadway Playhouse, a state-of-the-art live performance theatre featuring an intimate 549-seat auditorium and spacious lobby. Performances include contemporary plays and musicals, as well as classics from Broadway and beyond. With signature retail, restaurants, sports and theatre, Water Tower Place welcomes visitors with a unique, high-energy urban shopping and dining experience that Chicago is recognized for around the world. shopwatertower.com
