Swatch BIG BOLD IRONY Watch
Swatch’s latest collection is also their first stainless steel BIG BOLD with an urban twist on street style. Crafted with modern explorers and rebels in mind, it embodies pure attitude and energy and conjures a vibe that’s as irreverent as it is confident and entirely unexpected. Whereas some stainless steel watches aim for subtlety, this one thumps its chest by way of bold colour, innovative material, and avant-garde design.
This year kicked off a brand new chapter for the BIG BOLD line with the introduction of two firsts: the collection’s first stainless steel model and also the first Swatch piece to combine modern bioceramic with trusty stainless steel. The result is a robust head-turner that takes the words “big” and “bold” to heart by defying convention at every turn. More than striking wristwear, this is a daring talking point in horological form. Only the bold need apply!
YETI Roadie 48-Wheeled Hard Cooler
Brought to you by one of the best names in the outdoor game, YETI’s Roadie packs a roomy storage chamber within a virtually indestructible exterior. It holds enough space for 42 beer cans (using a 2:1 ice-to-can ratio) and comes fully loaded with all kinds of intelligent features. Your next tailgate or campout has just beem optimised.
What can owners expect from the Roadie? Well, just about everything one could ask for, including a periscope handle, impact-and-puncture-resistant wheels, lip-grip side handles, and never-slip feet. Additional features such as a proprietary hinge system prevent breaks while tie-down slots allow you to attach the cooler to your transportation vessel of choice.
Thanks to patented permafrost insulation, an interlock lid system, and a coldlock gasket, your beverages get cold and stay cold for impressive stretches of time. There’s also a smart Quicklatch for one-handed access and a convenient drain plug for quick draining. We could go on but you probably get the point. Now, who wants a cold one?! -AU$649.95
Blundstone Dress Boots
In Partnership with Blundstone
The kind of boots that can be worn absolutely anywhere, these smart options from Blundstone will take Dad’s questionable judgement out of the equation when it comes to what he throws on his feet. Providing supreme comfort to match the classic looks, these boots feature a water-resistant leather durable TPU outsole, removable comfort footbed, and a refined profile with chisel toe that makes them look just as at home at a wedding as they do on a country jaunt or local coffee run.
Available in three handsome leather colourways—black, brown, and rustic brown—these classic boots are set to be Dad’s new favourites. -AU$230
Tineco Floor One S7 Pro Floor Washer
Tineco’s wireless floor washer makes the standard mop seem like something from prehistoric times. Use the built-in LCD screen to alternate between four operating modes as you tackle messes for up to 40 minutes on a single charge.

Anker AnkerMake M5 3D Printer
User-friendly and loaded with features, the AnkerMake M5 brings the 3D printing experience into your home with seamless precision. Speedy performance, a built-in AI camera, and adjoining app control are just a few of the many benefits lying in wait.
Rubik’s Connected Cube

Glen Moray Whisky
Aged for 12 years, this Speyside single malt delivers fruit, flower, toffee, sweetness, grain, and hints of ginger marmalade with every smooth sip. Maybe it’s not the most ‘unique’ gift in the world, but who’s going to argue with delicious whisky?

Titleist Vokey Design SM8 Wedge
A golfer’s dream come true, the SM8 Wedge pushes the centre of gravity forward from the face and makes expert use of high-density tungsten construction. As a direct result, one can expect a more consistent strike and better feel as they achieve new levels of ball flight.
Finska Lawn Game
The outdoor game of Finska was first introduced to Australia back in 2009 and it’s been wildly popular ever since. Included in this set are 12 pins and a throwing log—all made from eco-friendly birch wood—as well as a laminated rule sheet and scorecard.
Outdoor Wine Table
Ideal for picnics and other outdoor excursions, this collapsible table has been designed to hold a wine bottle, two wine glasses, and a bowl of snacks or a small plate of food. A fiberglass spike extends from the slim plywood base so that you can plant it securely in the grass or sand.
Wall Mounted Personal Masseuse
This wall-mounted massage system is yet another unique gift that’s guaranteed to please. Use the 360 degree rotation ball for some deep tissue relief or the micro-point node roller to release tension and stimulate blood flow in top-layer muscles, all without using your hands. Ahhhh, that’s the good stuff!
Things to Consider for Unique Gift Ideas
When it comes to unique gift ideas, simply wrapping a bow on a bottle of whisky isn’t quite enough. In fact, if you want to get the special occasion right, there are a few things you need to consider:
- Price: Perhaps the most obvious consideration, the price will inevitably play a factor in your purchasing decision. While you may want to splash out for a significant birthday or gifting event, more often than not, you’ll be aiming around the $50-$100 mark. To get the most out of your unique gift idea, don’t be afraid to shop around for the best price.
- Risk: Trying to buy a unique and different gift idea is not always the most straightforward predicament. When you stray from the path and pick up something a little out of the ordinary, you run the risk of missing the mark.
