we have been attempting to get our bridal party gifts done for the past few months...he doesnt want anything commonly given...but we have 10 guys so we can get anything too expensive...
my FH doesnt' want to give - anything engraved - nothing that tells time - nothing to put a liquid into - no gift cards
so I'm at a loss...any suggestions please!!

My boyfriend was in a few weddings last year. For two he got the regular engraved bottle, and for one he got a gift card. The best gift he got was a dartboard. All of his friends play darts every thursday night so the groom got all the guys dart boards in wooden cases for their own houses. I thought it was great!

I feel your pain!
FH and I have been lamenting this for MONTHS now! We're thinking of giving them little Swiss Army Knives--they have some really great prices here for them.
We were also thinking of getting them liquor sets. Someone gave my brother a gift set of Pravda vodka with two mini martini glasses and we thought giving them each something similar would be nice.
Do they play cards? That's an idea too!

FH is getting his groomsmen memberships into the beer of the month club.... I don't know that much about it but he is excited about it and it sounds really different!

We're giving swiss army knives. We happened to get them engraved with each guy's first name, but he doesn't have to do that.

This is what we did too, but we engraved their initials. Again, you don't have to get them engraved at all.
What about Omaha steaks? I read that idea on here and loved it. We couldn't do it though, because one of the gms still lives at home and one of them is a vegetarian.
