The Gift of Time
-
Whether it's an anniversary, a birthday, holiday, or milestone birthday, a grandfather clock adds panache to any man's home and never goes out of style. If he lives in a small space, a wall clock that can be displayed in the kitchen or living area may be more practical. If he has trouble getting up in the morning, an alarm clock is ideal. Alarm clocks come in different models and colors to suit his personality. If he's a man on the go, traveling for work and/or pleasure a travel clock is helpful, light and easy to pack. If he has an office, an engraved desk clock will remind him of how important he is to you.
The Main Event
-
If you know the man you're buying a gift for is consistently glued to his favorite sport on TV, buy him tickets to the ultimate game. If he likes football, get Super Bowl tickets. If he's an all-net type of guy, then the NBA Playoffs would be an unforgettable experience for him. If baseball is his game, take him to the World Series. If he enjoys soccer, the World Cup is an exciting event for him to attend. Perhaps he likes a variety of sports -- then the Olympics is a magnificent option. Advance preparation and/or following an application process may be necessary. Tickets to the main event will leave a lasting impression.

Valet Box
-
Valet boxes are perennial containers for men's jewelry. This special place to hold cuff links, chains, rings and watches will be sincerely cherished. There is a vast selection to choose from, since valet boxes come in assorted materials, like wood and leather.
Message Gifts
-
Priceless gifts such as smiles and kisses will always surpass the latest trend. Slip a "Have a Great Day," or "Seal the Deal" note of encouragement into his lunch or coat pocket before he dashes off to work. Other message gifts include a silkscreened T-shirt with his name or a special message on it. If he likes graffiti art, another technique to try is to create street art on the T-shirt with stencil and spray paint. Jennifer Cooke shows how to do this step-by-step in her book, "Design Your Own Tees."
Texter Gloves
-
If the man you are buying for is an avid texter, you can't go wrong with texter gloves. Designer Kim Hamlin teaches you how to knit these gloves with alpaca yarn in the book "Interweave Presents Knitted Gifts: Irresistible Projects to Make and Give," by Ann Budd. These gloves have removable thumb flaps that stay in place if the wearer isn't texting.
