Apple Watch Series 9
The great thing about the Apple watch is that it works for pretty much everyone if you’re ordering online. Get the bulkier 45mm varient for dad. Perhaps the 41mm for mum. Get rubber straps for the sportier niece or the gold Milanese Loop for your partner. Features a Retina display, a plethora of health trackers and the ability to even help you find your iPhone. They don’t have an iPhone? Maybe buy them one of those this year and get them the watch next time. Two years of gifts sorted.
