Who seems to have it all. Hes a friend so I dont want any sexual responses. But, I wanna get him something nice that he will really enjoy not just "something" if that makes sense. Help!

    How about something completely out there like a bungee jump experience....you know how you can get those gift cards for extreme things like that !

    Or something both of you could enjoy like a weekend away or an overnight stay with breakfast at a nice hotel?

    Most of my guy friends get homemade cookies and/or candy. I've had zero complaints and now get requests. Another thing that might be cool (depending on how much you want to spend) is some sort of experience: F1 racing, gun range/shooting lesson, etc.

    What does he enjoy doing? If he likes to cook, can you get him a cooking classes somewhere or some kitchen gadets from Williams Sonoma. If he's into Art, get him an art book and passes to a museum, etc.

    You already had my idea. Put the watch in a nice box then wrap it complete with ribbon and bow and put it in his gift basket.

    Anything from his favorite sports team...I don't know of any guy who ever gets tired of more stuff, and if he has all the recent stuff you can go to used/thrift shops or ebay for vintage items...

    I just saw really cool mugs on uncommongoods.com - there is a space at the bottom to put cookies. I'm thinking of doing a gift basket that has the mug, flavored hot chocolate and spiced apple cider packets & cookies. I'll have to wait for the mugs to arrive to see what size cookies will fit in the "warmer" area at the bottom of the mug. I think a guy would like something along those lines.

    I was racking my brain over what to get my boyfriend until I found some really nice tungsten rings on Amazon for only $20. He's always complaining about his gold band getting scratched up, and these are practically impossible to scratch. That could be a possible option, they have some really awesome designs for men.

    ETA:
    This is the one I got him. They have some with really great inlays, but those will scratch over time.

    A great bottle of wine. Some type of beer of the month club, tickets to a show or sporting event. If they have "everything" def get him something that can be used up or consumed.
