Every week, Boss Hunting’s editors spend far too much time scouring the web: in search of the coolest gear, food & drink deals, and destinations worth trekking to across the globe.
In this week’s edition of Good Finds, we’ve got Swatch’s NEON Collection, RIMOWA’s Original Backpack, The North Face x Bialetti collab, and more.

Swatch NEON Collection
Swatch has entered the season hot with what’s been hailed as their most anticipated release of the year.
With a bold burst of summer energy, a playful splash of arcade halls and VHS static nostalgia, as well as the affordable craftsmanship that has come to define the watchmaker’s reputation, the NEON Collection has successfully captured the retro spirit of the ’80s and ’90s in six “electrifying” timepieces.
Both the refined silhouettes and vibrant colourways practically speak for themselves. But just in case you wanted a little more to chew on, the descriptions are as follows:
- Swatch Neon Flumotions ($200)
Inspired by the iconic Flumotions watch from 1988. Now with a super slim Skin Classic case that pulses with neon hues, it is the ultimate blast from the past that feels both familiar and completely unexpected. - Swatch Neon Signal Flag ($215)
A punchy throwback to the Signal Flag model released in 1990. This reimagined version cranks up the volume on the original orange, yellow, and green palette for maximum impact. - Swatch Neon Emerald Chrono ($215)
The playful reinterpretation of Emerald Diver, released in 1986. Making its debut now as a chronograph, this timepiece channels the precision of classic timekeeping with a vibrant colour scheme that has been amped up and refreshed in true 80s/90s style.
- Swatch Neon Skychart ($125)
The reimagining of Skychart, first launched in 1991. Retaining its standout calendar date window, the iconic model now returns in a striking new colour palette of electric green, deep purple, and dark blue, a high-voltage upgrade that’s impossible to ignore. - Swatch Neon Seppia ($260)
The remix of Seppia, a unique Aquachrono that was released in 1994 now envisioned as a Big Bold. Complemented by a dark, textured strap, the watch features its signature 47mm dial front and centre, infused with vibrant accents of neon pink, green, and yellow, adding a fresh twist that adds serious personality. - Swatch Neon Hielo ($190)
Obviously draws inspiration from Hielo, a watch launched in 1993, but with a bold reinvention. Thanks to a commanding 47mm case, expanded from a modest 25mm, and a vibrant colour boost, this reimagined watch turns heads with every tick.
All six will be available in Swatch boutiques worldwide and online from September 18th.
RIMOWA Original Backpack
RIMOWA’s iconic aluminium luggage has become a little more everyday carry-friendly with the backpack iteration of its hardcase glory.
Built with both the same rigorous standards and reinforced materials as the regular suitcases, this surprisingly slim flex also features a breathable back panel and adjustable shoulder straps, along with another top suitcase-style strap.
Inside, it’s a neat freak’s dream with organisational pockets, pouches, and compression components to keep everything exactly where it should be. And in place of your traditional wraparound zipper, this bad boy opens like a briefcase.
Polaroid x Thrasher
Skate culture and Polaroid have walked hand in hand for decades now, which is why the latter’s newly unveiled collaboration with Thrasher isn’t the least bit surprising. If anything… we’re surprised that it took this long for the link-up.
Chaotically styled Now Generation 3 instant cameras aside – which have been hydrodipped to achieve the transgressive look (and subsequently ensure no two cameras are identical) – it pairs with custom “Thrasher Edition” Polaroid Colour i-Type film, featuring 11 exclusive frame designs from legendary artist Neckface.
Cop yours from September 17th.
The North Face x Bialetti Moka Set
On the subject of crossovers, The North Face and Bialetti have crafted a limited-edition coffee set built for life on the move – a rugged yet elegant ode to exploration, caffeine, and the small luxuries that keep those spirits high when you’re miles from civilisation.
Inside the set, you’ll find a classic Moka Express Three-Cup coffee maker reimagined in Summit Gold, flanked by two stainless steel cups (one in jet black, the other in bright alpine yellow), and matching spoons engraved with The North Face’s “Never Stop Exploring” mantra.
There’s also a tin of Bialetti’s Perfetto Moka Classico – freshly ground, full-bodied, and ready to fuel whatever summit you’re chasing next.
Engineered for trail-side brewing, the aluminium Moka Express is as simple as it is iconic, with an easy-clean safety valve and the sort of build quality that’ll outlast your boots. It’s happy on gas, electric, and glass-ceramic cooktops, and can even work with induction if you’ve got Bialetti’s plate.
