If the other watch is also on his list, yes. I wouldn't buy a watch you don't know if he likes it.
For example, I'm not a dive watch guy, soI only have a very few divers I enjoy and they are not in my top 50 watches I'd like to own. Recieving a random diver watch, I would be happy to recieve a watch, but it would be awkward since I won't really enjoy it.
