by Josephine Cusumano

It’s time to celebrate the special men in our lives, so in honor of Father’s Day, we’ve culled the best South Jersey has to offer dads—with quality and fashion in mind. So go ahead, give them what they want!

1. Keeping It Fresh
For the avid cigar fan, there’s nothing like a humidor to keep cigars fresh and ready to go when the occasion calls for it. So why not go with the best luxury has to offer like a Savoy Santos Executive humidor (pictured in Rosewood). It features a two-way humidification system perfect for optimal freshness and aging and comes in three sizes, with the largest fitting 100 cigars. Prices vary, select sizes and wood finishes available at Heritage Premium Cigar Shop, 107 Merchants Way, Marlton, (856) 988-7665, HeritagePremiumCigars.com

2. Keeping Time
There’s nothing like a new timepiece to mark a special moment and the Tag Heuer Carrera Panamericana Special Edition chronograph does just that. Cased in polished steel with an aluminium bezel and black opalin dial, the Swiss-made watch features three counters for hour, minute and running second. It’s water resistant up to 100 meters and operates on quartz movement powered by battery with at least two years of life.
