Elaborate dear chap.

Do you want :shudder: "Novelty" links

or plain metal - always with a chain not a solid bar...

Most jewellers will stock some / ditto most outfitters / tailors.

Best regards - I'll edit in a bit & pop some links in

I'm thinking of Alan Clark's comments about having to buy ones own furniture now....

Not sure if that was intentional, however, I think Links are a bit expensive. www.linksoflondon.com/category.aspx/CUFFLINKS

They are for best man / usher gifts etc but strictly NOT cheesy wedding related ones that can only be worn on the day

Just to add that the T M Lewins cufflinks come in nice presentation boxes if they are gifts

They are also better quality than their Bas&*"d shirts withthe magically shrinking sleeves

I dont like their shirts, the collar is to tall, they are to fitted and are a bugger to iron. I have a about 10 non iron shirts from Marks & Spencers that are great. I havent ironed a shirt for nearly 2 years

I find that most cufflinks are pretty boring or you can go to the very expensive London jewellers and pay thousands for a pair.
You may pour scorn but this is my solution:
Firstly go to ebay and look at earrings. Diamonds if you like diamonds, rubys if you like rubys. Whatever. Obviously nothing girly. Use Auctionsniper to look after your bid. You will be suprised how cheap these earrings can be.
Secondly take your new earrings to a goldsmith. Ask him to convert them to cufflinks. A straightforward job.
End result, unique, classy and expensive cufflinks for not a lot of money.

Nice idea from Mr BrucieB....

My best man & ushers got a cigar gift set each - lighter, cutter, tube & a cohiba in it. Not stupidly costly either from fleabay...

The best cufflinks I have are Mont Blanc. Very nice at holding cuffs together.

What's wrong with a solid bar? I can´t get on with chains becuase I have very slim wrists so I end up with a half inch gap between the two parts of the cufflink and the cuff of the shirt flapping round my fingers.

If you want something a little different, how about some Titanium ones? I've never bought them online but try dealtime www.dealtime.co.uk/xDN-Jewellery--cuff_links-jw_material_titanium
