As children, we have often read the detective stories of Arthur Canon Doyle and Agatha Christie, put ourselves in the shoes of Sherlock Holmes and with a magnifying glass on one hand and a cane on the other, set off on our spying missions. We have exchanged roles of Holmes and Watson with our friend and never missed an opportunity to appreciate our friend by saying - 'Elementary, my dear Watson!'

Gift a telescope or a magnifying glass to your friend today and allow him to repeat the same old line - 'Elementary, my dear Watson!' to you once again.

You can now get the engraved to make them personalised. You can get your friend's name or both of your names engraved on the nautical gifts. Some like the initials of their names more than the names itself; if your friend is one of them, then now you can get the gifts engraved with the initials of the name. The best, however, is to get some beautiful quotation engraved on the box of the gift so that your friend feels proud to own it.
