Boyfriend graduating with a Masters - gift ideas?!

We've been together for 2 and a half years and live together so as you can imagine we pretty much have the usual gifts.
We are moving to London next year where he will be doing his PhD and I will be going to either Law School or doing a PGCE (still undecided on that one!) so I was thinking of getting something related to this but again am stuck
For his BA graduation I got him a bottle of his favourite whisky (which was NOT cheap!) and a Zippo (yep he's a smoker!) engraved with a personal message.
I'm not looking for something to better the previous present, but I honestly cannot think of anything to get him for his Masters. I'd say my budget is about £250.
Oh we're both Classicists if that helps with any ideas.
Thanks in advance for any help!

True, will do that as a side gift. He just won't be opening that one in front of any parents!0

Maybe that could be his incentive for when he does his PhD. Can't be giving him everything now, literally! :rotfl:0 -
