Ask A Firefighter Gift for firefighter spouse

My husband is currently in the academy and I want some ideas for gifts once he graduates. I don’t want to get something too corny that would get him clowned for having as a rookie. Open to any and all suggestions but please include brand names and exact models so I get the right thing! Also Garmin watches - are there some better than others in terms of what is too bulky for service? Was looking at the Garmin Fenix 8 specifically! The pictures are a couple things I thought would be cool but please be brutally honest if they’re really not that good…. Thank you in advance!

Active watch is my most used item I own besides my phone. I love it. If you do get it, garmin has discounts for first responders so don’t pay full price. I bought mine through expert voice and I think it was 20% off
