His First Swiss Watch
Swiss watches are prestigious for a reason. Watchmaking capitals like Le Locle, Geneva and Neuchâtel have peddled exemplary craftsmanship for over a century, and Patek Philippe and Omega are but two juggernaut labels from Europe’s favourite fence-sitter.
You don’t need a Swiss banker’s salary to invest, either. Smaller watch brands can rival the greats in terms of engineering – at a stitch of the usual price. He can use his own savings for that Rolex Daytona.

A Classic White Shirt
The humble Oxford shirt is, arguably, the most important building block in a man’s wardrobe. It’s more versatile than navy tailoring, and not restricted to summer or winter looks, unlike other staples like a camel overcoat.
It’s a piece that has remained at the forefront of many a great look for decades, and can be dressed up or down, layered with ease or slotted into more formal looks. All of which means he needs a new one. Pronto.

A Subscription Service
Yes, we live in an age of immediate digital gratification. Just because a man can order socks and pants on his smartphone though, doesn’t mean he actually will.
That’s where you come in. Buy a yearly subscription service that he would never think of himself: the useful things that’ll make him a better man, like a grooming box, clothing, even condoms if he needs a companion to ‘Netflix and chill’.

Something To Get Him Drunk
A weekend wasted isn’t a wasted weekend – especially when birthdays are concerned. So, indulge him with something that’ll a) taste good and b) make him feel not-so-good the next day.
Japanese whiskies are famed across the world as a gentler alternative to Scotch – important if you don’t want him to heave on the first round. Or, alternatively, settle for a premium vodka that’s a far cry from the rocket fuel of underage days gone by.
