Many people like to buy tie as a gift for him, but I seldom see people get cufflinks for their loves one. It is good to get something special rather than same old gift. At least, they will only find out what is the gift after they unwrapped. If you are giving a tie, it is very easy to guess by just looking at the shape of the present. Try buying cufflink in future and see what he will react. For sure, they will be more than happy to get this if compare to tie. Trust me.
