Gifts for Groomsmen

Help me I'm completely stumped! We have three groomsmen to buy for, and I don't have a clue what to get them. What are you getting yours, or have you seen anything that might be good? Can't be anything too bulky as two of them need to go home on the plane, and would prefer something they can keep rather than just a bottle of booze. Budget is up to £40/£45 each.

How about engraved hip flasks? Nice ones here: http://www.perfectlyengraved.co.uk/ecommerce/Scripts/prodList2~idCategory~513~Engraved~Flasks.htm
They're not too big, really 'gentlemanly', and can be a nice reminder of your day - you could get them engraved with just something simple like their own name, and the date of the wedding/day they were groomsmen - simple and personal.
Or an engraved pocketwatch - maybe less likely to be used again, but still something that can be personal, and not something they'd necessarily already have: http://www.tomsawyerwaistcoats.co.uk/subprod/pocket-watches-0000720.aspx
They could even use it on the day to help make sure you're there on time

As a variant on the hip flask, when my boyfriend's brother got married he got my boyfriend (who was an usher) and his other groomsmen a pewter tankard each, engraved with their name, their role and the date of the wedding. And yes it has been used on several occasions."A mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge." - Tyrion LannisterMarried my best friend 1st November 2014Loose = the opposite of tight (eg "These trousers feel a little loose")Lose = the opposite of find/gain (eg "I'm going to lose weight this year")0 -

We got OH's brother a Ben Sherman watch and my brother a Fossil wallet from Debenhams. Really struggled with my brother as he had a watch when he was an usher last year.
