Buy the upgrade to a real routine, not the loudest object with the word dad on it.

Make it specific to your relationship
A daughter gift can be soft without being generic. Mention a drive, a lesson, a song, a meal, or a tiny thing he does that you noticed.
Pair sentimental with useful
A frame plus coffee, a book plus a note, or a multitool plus a memory often lands better than a single purely decorative item.
