Two good options for a long use grooms gifts may be something like engraved silver cufflinks from somewhere like Tiffany's (similar budget I believe). I will say that when I rec'd these, they were my best wedding gift, and Ive been in quite a few, since I will have them for a lifetime.
A second option could be what I presented (I was married not long ago), where I had given a nice designer wallet/credit card holder to each groomsmen. Again you can get these in the $200-$300 range and it can be used for years to come.


Im just not seeing a $300 watch as something that would be useful to most, and at the end of the day you are spending nearly $2K, so you want to make it something that they will actually use and perhaps have for a lifetime as a rememberance...jmho

Just wanted to reinforce those points

Absolutely agree with everyone here. Don't spend the money on watches unless you have a big enough budget to justify something worthy. And even then, a watch is an individual statement. I have an Omega Seamaster that I bought for myself as a wedding gift to me.....lol. Save the $2k and do something like that for yourself and by your groomsmen something unqiue or even something different for each of them.

Happy Wedding....
