Rubik's cube coasters

Analog/Digital Watch

This watch is the classy older brother to the digital calculator watches dorky guys are known for wearing. This watch is technically analog, meaning it looks like a traditional clock, but because of its unique design, it reads as a digital one. And he won't need to stress because this black watch will go with any of his Star Wars T-shirts. $100 at Thinkgeek.com.

Touchscreen gloves

No one knows how hard it is to play games on your phone in cold weather better than a nerd. Without gloves, fingers freeze up while trying to enter in a game-winning word in Words with Friends. With gloves, he can only send one letter text messages. These $25 gloves from Muji are just the solution. They have conductive material sewn into the tip of the forefinger and thumb so he can tap away all season long.

Etsy seller AshtonAtelier accepts custom painting requests, no matter how strange your preferences may be. Price varies from piece to piece.

Mathematics cufflinks

No matter what type of person you're dating, it's nice to go out on the town every once in a while. If your guy is not as suave as George Clooney, help him out by getting him these math symbol cuff links. They may just inspire him to dress his best in a black tuxedo, or they may only inspire him to work on his mathematical theorems. Either way, for $40 it's worth the shot!
