The Groomsman - Mr. GQ

This guy has got it together. He’s always polished, never wrinkled and looks like he put a lot of thought into what he wears—whether it’s the bar, club or the beach. He might have more shoes than your bride and his ties and belts outnumber the rest of your groomsmen put together. So what do you get this guy?

Being that he loves looking smart, he’s going to love anything with quality that’s got some flash to it. The Swiss Calibre watch in stainless steel and black or silver will definitely impress. With a leather strap, sapphire crystal and quartz movement, and waterproof to 100 feet, this is a gift any guy would love to get.

It’s probably safe to assume this friend of yours has a few pairs of cuff links, but another set is always sure to please. Available for engraving in square, oval or round mirror, Marlon brushed silver, Addison high-polished brass and silver plated; this gift will make a great addition to his tux or suit on your big day.

And what flashy guy doesn’t like to flash his cash in style? Buy him an Art Form money clip that’s modern in its balance and symmetry. Help him keep his bills and credit cards safe in the Da Vinci of stylish accessories.

If he likes his clothes, you know his hands are going to look the part as well. He’s man enough to accept the engraved manicure set, which includes a high-quality nail clipper, scissors, file and tweezers. The leather case features a personalized brushed-silver clasp.

But sometimes a manicure set isn’t enough. If your friend is obsessed with seeing his reflection in his shoes, a combined manicure and shoe shine kit is the economical way to go. Great for the office, traveling or when he needs to groom on the fly at home, this kit will help when he’s too short on time to get his shoes shined or hands manicured.

The set includes a nailbrush, tweezers; nail clipper, cuticle trimmer, scissors and file. His scuffed shoes will thank you for the black polish, application brush, buffer brush and buffing cloth. Engrave the leather kit with funny message about his grooming habits or his name. Go to a department store and accompany this gift or the stand-alone manicure set with some nice lotions from the men’s department.
