If the gift is given in person, and opened in front of the giver, smile and say: 'Thank you so much for the [lovely gift].' Express appreciation for a particular aspect of the gift-- it's uniqueness, aptness, how it will be used, a 'thank you for thinking of me'. Even saying that you used to have one but were so disappointed when it broke/was lost/ wore out. Act pleased.
If the gift is opened later, send a letter including the above-- promptly. If the gift was mailed, mention that it arrived undamaged.
Do not criticize the gift in any way, be it size, style, model number, brand, or lateness of arrival. Do not ask if it can be exchanged.

You'll just have to say sorry and give him a late birthday present by saying , I couldn't make it to your birthday party or something like that .
There are two ways to find out the Hard way and the Easy way 1. The Hard Way Give that person a gift everyday of the year until the say something like "Oh a birthday Present!" Or "My thanks are in Order" 2. The Easy Way Ask me and I can give you the date for any person you want to know when there birthday is.
