You know the dad who has everything? The one who’s impossible to shop for? Yep, so do we. So here, we present some of our favorite splurgey Father’s Day gift ideas for that very guy. Not that he wouldn’t love something from the rest of our Father’s Day Gift Guide, but if you want to spend a little more this year, here are some gifts that wow us.
Vintage Scrabble Set
For family game night, there is just no comparison between this originali style board and those flat cardboard ones. To say nothing of the digital version on your 3-inch phone screen. ($179 at Restoration Hardware)
Personalized Cufflinks from his Signature
Yes, it’s spendy, but wow, what an impression. Swipe his initials or signature off some paper lying around, or have your kiddo write out Dad’s first initial. Pick silver, gold plate, gold, or platinum, if money is no object. ($350+ at Cuff Him)
Deco Watch
The great thing about vintage watches: They never go out of style. ($450 at Peter Nappi)
Custom Vehicle Art
If he’s got a favorite car from his youth, a dream car, or even a boat, this cool service will replicate it on a background of your choice. ($395 at Uncommon Goods)
Brooks Leather Bicycle Seat and Matching Grips
For a sporty dad, consider a splurgey bit of gear that he’d never by for himself, like this sweet leather seat. ($119, 89 at Kaufmann Mercantile)
JD Salinger Boxed Set
Any literary dad will love this box set of Salinger novels, with reproductions of the original cover art. ($99.99, Anthropologie)
Handcrafted Travel Backgammon
If Scrabble isn’t his game, this travel backgammon set is just gorgeous. ($160, Fredericks + Mae)
BBQ Briefcase
Yes, grilling tools for Father’s Day can be a cliche but what can we say? Man like fire. Man like build fire. Man no feel like caveman around fire with this briefcase. ($85, Uncommon Goods)
Saga Electric Guitar Set
If he’s always been jonesing for a guitar, check out this set which lets him put his own together. That way if he never picks it up, he can still feel proud of it. ($200, Maker Shed)
Ballpark Blueprints
If he’s a baseball fanatic, choose from 21 different ballparks on these awesome blueprints of the stadiums. ($185, Uncommon Goods)
Italian Leather Tie Case
If he already has his share of fancy ties, here’s the fancy leather case to store them all when he hits the road. Gorgeous. ($185 at Gent Supply Co)
Peugeot Electric Pepper Mill
For the culinary dad, an electric pepper mill is so indulgently perfect. Especially one as well made as the ones from Peugeot. ($115, Give Simple)
Handmade Leather Football
This football would make an awesome desk piece or bookshelf display. At this price, mayyyybe don’t actually go outside and toss it around. ($139, Kaufmann Mercantile)
Refurbished Polaroid Camera with Film Bundle
Polaroids are coming back and this refurbished camera comes with everything he needs to snap, and shake it like…well, you know. ($117.31 on sale, Polaroid Store)
65″ McCauley American Ninja 3-Bladed Ground-Adjustable Metal Aviation Art Airplane Propeller
Oh, like he already has one? ($3695, Plane Pieces)

The Deco Watch.
You got in first! I’d love that watch, it’s so unique.
The baseball stadium blueprint would definitely be something my hubby would love!!
good beef jerky and perfect pickles put a smile on our household Dad’s face every time! He would love the gourmet basket.
My favorite item on this post (for my husband) would have to be the keyfinder. This is a common issue around my house and would save us many frustrating mornings!!! 🙂
The deco watch!
I love the Deco Watch! It’s a nice style that would be a perfect fit for any man!
Would love to have the Vintage scrabble set.

The custom vehicle art. Would be great for old Mopar fans all around.
That was SUCH a difficult decision, but I think my husband would like the DECO WATCH best!
My husband collects baseballs from baseball parks all over the country when he’s on business trips or vacations. It would be amazing if we could pair some of his favourites with the ballpark blue prints for display in his office!
My grillmaster hubby would LOVE BBQ briefcase.
BBQ Briefcase would be the perfect gift for my dad ! he loves to grill 🙂
Definitely the ballpark blueprints. Such an unexpected thing to have for a man cave!

My husband would like the refurbished Polaroid camera. He is pretty nostalgic.

The Custom Vehicle Art would bowl my DH over! I think he still mourns a little inside of the car he had prior to fatherhood….
Hi
Only felt Compelled To write cause the money helps hehe. But also cause, The Custom Vehicle Art, thought was great and brought back memories of good old days. And thought what a nice gift. Since I worry those days are slipping farther away with a great era in time.. Hard to see the good old classics on the road now a days except when there is a car show around mostly what a shame.. Now its all about technology, which is nice also but just not the same. Like everything else classic bands ,tv’s ,furniture, etc. Now it’s all new age mostly.
I hope we never forget a great era in time along with the new. Would be a great loss. Now its all about keeping up and throwing away like yesterdays news.
And I would love the scrabble game since love scrabble. And since I been mom and dad practically all these yrs. being a single parent. This is my pick to myself 🙂
The Peugeot Electric Pepper Mill would be right up my husband’s alley. He loves to cook.
Ze Plane! Ze Plane!!
That Deco Watch is so cool.
Love, love, love the vintage watch!
The baseball blueprints would be a fantastic gift for my husband.
