A set of whiskey glasses is already a solid gift, but add his name or a meaningful date to them and it becomes something he'll actually keep out on display.

Cuff links are one of those things guys don't usually buy for themselves, which makes them a great gift. Add his initials or a meaningful date, and now they're something he'll actually keep.
