Fathers's Day is fast approaching. If you're stuck on what to get the dad in your life, here is a list of seven Father's Day gifts that are sure to be a hit.
Bonus: Most of the items can be purchased pretty close to Father’s Day if you have Amazon Prime or don’t mind paying a bit extra for two or one-day shipping.
Fitbit Versa Smartwatch
If dad is obsessed with fitness or needs something to give him a boost to get going, the Versa is a great accessory. The watch is pretty simple and easy to setup for anyone with a smartphone, whether its Apple or Android. It can track a wide variety of activities, store and play music, has a roughly four-day battery life, and is water resistant up to a depth of 50 meters (although the manufacturer doesn't recommend wearing it in hot water like a hot tub or sauna).
Amazon User Review: "Have owned this for a week now and can’t say enough good things about it. Fantastic smart watch that is about 80% of an Apple Watch for less than half the price. If you love the Fitbit community and want a waterproof tracker that adds a ton of smart watch features and has great battery like to boot, this is your Fitbit!"

Victorinox Swiss Army Spartan Pocket Knife
This Swiss army knife features 12 tools that will work for just about any adventure from cutting rope to opening a bottle of red wine. The blade itself is stainless steel, so expect it to last for a while. Amazon also has the knife in different colors for a few extra bucks.
Amazon User Review: "My grandpa carried a Swiss Army knife in his pocket everywhere he went. As a kid it was a common site to see him pull it out and use one of the various tools to perform some sort of quick fix. Now as a grown man myself, I carry this knife on me every day (grandpa’s stays safely in a drawer at home since I’ve inherited it). The point is, these knives will literally last a lifetime and become cherished family heirlooms. They are exceptionally well made, versatile and up to the job when you need them to be. Don’t hesitate, just buy one. You won’t regret it."

Fossil Men's RFID Bifold Wallet
If all else fails and you can’t decide what to get your dad, a wallet is always a great backup.

A great wallet brand is Fossil—their wallets are 100% leather lined and pretty affordable.
