Gift questions

What's a good practical gift for someone who has everything?

A weather station or a well-made alarm clock. Both get used every day, suit most homes and last for years.

What's a good gift for him?

A wooden or stainless steel weather station, a barometer or a classic bell alarm clock. See gifts for him.

What's a good bedside gift for her?

A retro or wood-frame alarm clock with a soft backlight. Many are silent sweep, so there's no ticking at night. See gifts for her.

What's a good gift for someone who likes gardening or fishing?

An analogue weather station or barometer. It shows temperature, humidity and air pressure at a glance, so it's easy to plan a day outside. For fishing and boating, a tide clock shows when the next high or low tide is due.

Which clocks don't tick?

Clocks marked silent sweep have a smooth-moving second hand with no ticking. Not every clock is silent, so check the product title or shop gifts for light sleepers.

What age is a kids' alarm clock good for?

Most children start learning to read an analogue clock in the first years of school, so a clear, colourful clock for their room makes a good starting-school gift.
