Rolf Sachs Fortis "IQ" Watch ($1500)

No, that price is not a typo. This is what I would call an "aspirational object." Should I ever have $1,500 lying around that I just did not know what to do with*, I would buy this watch. Great for: teachers with rich friends. From World Lux.

*Note: this will never happen.

BluAlert Bluetooth Cell Phone Bracelet ($50)

Some cranky cultural critic will point out that wearing this is a bit like being Lojacked to your cell phone, but for most of us, this device is genius. It tells you when your cell phone is ringing by buzzing your wrist, and if you get more than 5 meters away from your phone, it buzzes to let you know. No more missing calls in noisy bars, and you'll never lose your cell phone again. From ThinkGeek.

Monster Truck Planter ($85)

You want him to have something growing in his apartment other than the plates his roommate refuses to wash. Here's a great boy-oriented planter you can buy him for Valentine's Day. Or just get one for yourself. They're pretty cute. From Willow.
