Keyboard Cuff Links: Love or Leave?

I think I could see these keyboard cuff links on the wrists of a geeky guy that I love. Etsy user BeaG makes these cuff links from old keyboard keys for $9 a pair, but I might like them more if you could choose the initials that the cuff links come in. But cuff links are pretty formal, and keyboard keys may not be the black-tie impression he wants to make. Then again, they're kind of charming, especially as a Valentine's Day present. Would you buy these for your guy?

    Unless you can choose initials that mean something, it seems kinda pointless to me.

    Agreed, I'd want to choose initials. Seems silly that they don't offer that, perhaps we should inquire.

    it's a cute idea, esp. since french cuff shirts have seemingly become more "mainstream" (they are all over BR and express)... i don't think these are very formal cufflinks, but i wouldn't mind if i saw a guy wearing them with a casual french cuffed shirt. they may be a good conversation starter!

    oh, and my guy is a network engineer, so these may be a funny little "gag gift" for him, but i don't think he would seriously wear them... he doesn't love computers THAT much. Smiling

    I think they're a great idea - I imagine you could pawn a million old keyboards off of people by placing an ad on Craigslist!

    so what if they are not typically "formal" even when we get dressed up its fun to have a more "funky" down town item, my man hates formal so this is a great way to assert your "i'm hip and you cant make me wear anything!"

    Why not, I am far away from a computer geek, but appreciate stuff that is different, and not mainstream.

    conversation piece if not!
    Simplicity works!
