Some gifts go beyond words, and a beautifully crafted watch is one of them. Gifting a timepiece adds meaning that lasts far beyond the day itself.
On Laneway, you'll find Sekonda watches that offer effortless sophistication. But if innovation and precision are more their style, Seiko brings iconic craftsmanship with a timeless edge.
6. Premium Spirits & Wines
When it comes to Valentine’s Day, nothing sets the mood quite like a bottle of something special. A fine spirit or wine isn’t just a gift—it’s an invitation to slow down, savour, and enjoy the moment together.
For a touch of elegance, Rémy Martin cognac delivers smooth and complex flavours that feel indulgent. Lark’s Australian whiskey brings a local flair, crafted with care for those who appreciate the art of distillation.
If wine speaks to their heart, Penfolds Shiraz offers bold richness, while Wynns Cabernet Sauvignon is a classic red that never disappoints. Prefer something crisp? Leeuwin Estate Chardonnay adds a delicate and refreshing note, while Veuve Clicquot Rosé bubbles with romance and celebration.
