Advice for PIR graduation gifts

My son doesn't ship out to basic training until the end of November but I'm thinking ahead to his graduation gift.  My question is this: is he going to need a watch?  

Right now he uses his phone as his watch but I don't imagine that when he's finally working at his CTN job that he's going to be carrying his cell phone around; he may even be prohibited from carrying a cell phone - is that correct?  

If I do get him a watch is it a mistake to get him the high quality chronograph timepiece or would a $25 Timex be more practical?
