(CBS) Have you exhausted all your gift ideas for dad's day (Sunday, June 17, 2007)?

If you need some fresh suggestions, you're in luck. David Gregg, the senior editor of beststuff.com has just completed his annual search for thoughtful Father's Day gifts. His choices will renew your hope of finding just the right item to show your pop you still think he's tops.

Bird Dog Bay Neckwear

Still topping the list as one of the most popular Father's Day gifts are ties. Now you can get one that reflects dad's personality. Bird Dog Bay's Spring 2007 Collection features a stylish selection of silk ties that infuse a twist of whimsy, while incorporating playful patterns and colors into every tie. Choose from different themes like "Monkey Tales," "Gopher Golf," "Puppy Love," and "Stock Yard Exchange." Available at specialty stores nationwide.

PRICE: $75.00; www.birddogbay.com

Black & Decker Auto Wrench

The Black & Decker Auto Wrench opens and closes its jaws with a push of a button to quickly loosen or tighten nuts and bolts. The Auto Wrench is the first battery-powered adjustable wrench to offer the convenience and speed with the push of a button. No more guessing which direction to turn, or fumbling to manually adjust your wrench. With some wrenches it can be difficult to know which direction opens or closes the wrench.

The Auto Wrench eliminates the guesswork by automatically opening and closing onto nuts and bolts with just one hand, making quick work of plumbing projects, bike repairs, grill and swing set assembly, and more.

The Auto Wrench is also great for loosening garden hoses, shower heads, and for furniture assembly. Manual wrenches leave little room for your hand to adjust the wrench in tight spaces such as behind sink pipes. With the Auto Wrench's one-touch adjustment, turning nuts and bolts in tight areas is both quick and easy. The Auto Wrench can also be manually adjusted. Because the Auto Wrench adjusts up to 1 1/4 wide, it can be used to replace a set of up to 50 standard and metric wrenches.

PRICE: $28.40; www.blackanddecker.com

The fish finder unit is integrated into a wristwatch. It receives a wireless signal from a sonar bobber, which attaches to the end of your fishing rod. This waterproof "fish detector" has depth range of up to 100 feet.

PRICE: $60; www.humminbird.com

Callaway FT-i Driver

The FT-i driver is the next in line of Callaway's wildly popular Fusion series. The revolutionary design of this golf club allows precise positioning of the players weight to the extreme corners of the unique square clubhead and was designed to produce the highest total inertia of any driver on the market. Simply stated, the sweet spot on this club is so big, that if you miss hitting it, it's time to take up bowling!
