24 Best Christmas Gifts For Australian Men In 2023

There’s no better Christmas present you can get a man than a nice watch, and top Swiss brand Breitling’s new Superocean is a very nice watch indeed. A tough dive watch inspired by the best designs of the 70s, it’s retro-looking but filled with modern features, like a ceramic-inlaid bezel, chronometer-certified movement and broad hands and indexes in luminescent Super-LumiNova. Water resistant to 300m, it’s also shock-, sand- and saltwater-resistant – perfect for active blokes. This particular model is the Kelly Slater edition, created in collaboration with the famous 11-time World Surf League championship-winning surfer. We love the unique orange dial and green rubber as a colour combination. It’s the perfect gift for Christmas.

This is a bit fun.

Maybe your man has been crying out for a dressier watch. IWC Schaffhausen has you covered with their latest creation, the Portofino Perpetual Calendar. Named after the small Italian fishing village, IWC launched the Portofino in 1984 as a “pocket-watch-style wristwatch”. A dress watch through and through, the Portofino replaces Arabic numerals found on watches such as its Pilot family and replaces them with Roman numerals. This luxurious perpetual calendar take on the classic dress watch just oozes old-school cool – but what’s seriously cool about it is that its intelligent mechanical movement recognises the different lengths of the months and automatically inserts a leap day every four years at the end of February, meaning it will continue to run without manual intervention until 2100. It’s available in both steel and gold, but if you really love him, you’ll go for the gold.

Okay, so you’ve got him the nice automatic watch… Now to get him a watch winder. There’s nothing more annoying than your watch being dead just as you want to wear it. Italian firm Scatola del Tempo solves that, in style. Their luxurious Rotor 1 watch winder has an exterior cover with leather and a soft touch finish and boasts a Swiss Made watch winding mechanism. This model functions solely on batteries and offers a minimum autonomy of 3 years, so you even take it on the go.

Another essential watch accessory for a man who loves his timepieces is this watch cleaning kit. Heist is an all-natural watch and jewellery cleaner that’s gentle on your precious goods. Each travel-friendly, resealable kit is perfect for all watch types, even the trusty Apple Watch which is often the worst offender when it comes to everyday dirt. Whether he’s rocking a Casio or a Rolex, a Heist watch cleaning kit is a thoughtful Christmas present.

Australia is without a doubt one of the best countries for road trips and camping. With plenty of campsites in the outback or by the coast, you’re never short of places to pull up the car and get amongst Australia’s great outdoors. But, admittedly, one of the biggest hassles of camping is the act of setting up your tent. Those issues will be made a thing of the past with the Kings Kwiky MKII Rooftop Tent, which can be erected in a matter of seconds. Once up, it can withstand rain and wind thanks to a waterproof membrane and solid internal bracing, and the included 50mm mattress means you only need to allow pillows and a doona. So, if your man loves to get out and about, make his camping experience much more streamlined with a genius rooftop tent this Christmas.

Metal hardware around the TSA locks and wheels make it tough as nails, while clever height-adjustable Flex Dividers make it easy to sort out your belongings. They’re also available in a wide range of funky colours so your man can stand out from the pack.
