Commanding Presents

Finding just the right holiday gift for the executives on your shopping list can be a challenge and a risk. We cruised shops in Fort Myers and Naples, quizzed professionals and came up with a variety of can't-miss gift options for men and women executives-no matter what their tastes.

Sure Shot. This is perfect for any golf lover. The Nike Slingshot Tour Hybrid Golf Club boasts the newest in golf technology and will be a hole-in-one kind of gift. $170 at Edwin Watts, 3980 Tamiami Trail N., Naples.

The Write Touch. Personalize this set of crisp, cream stationery with masculine accents for the businessman on your list. His name will appear on the fine linen paper, with raised initials on matching envelopes. Present it in a handsome cherry-wood stationery box for the perfect present. For a truly signature gift, package it with this Skipper Nettuno fountain pen with an 18-karat gold nib. Stationery, $530; box, $200; pen, $950; at Arabesque, 350 Fifth Ave. S, Naples.

Bright Idea. These festive, women's collared shirts from Lacoste come in a variety of cheerful colors suited to any mood she might be in. $72 each at JJ Denim, 6420 Plantation Court, Fort Myers.

Toast with Taste. These Fabergé crystal high-ball whisky glasses come in a classic blue Fabergé box with silk lining-perfect for shipping to co-workers on the other coast. $300 for a set of four at Danieli in the Village on Venetian Bay, Naples.

Touchdown. Get something any fan will enjoy: tickets to catch the Fins live and in person. Move fast, though. Only three December games are scheduled at Dolphin Stadium in Miami, and one was already sold out in October. Tickets range from $40 to $250 at Miamidolphins.com.

Holiday Cheer. Send a celebration-a trio of the best red wines to enjoy with a box of fine cigars. Choose some of your own favorites as gifts, or leave it to the experts at Vino 100, Shops at Andrea Lane, Fort Myers.

Well Timed. Tiffany offers this three-inch nickel desk clock. Sporting a white face and black Roman numerals, it will be a great addition to an executive desk. $285 at Tiffany & Co., Waterside Shops, Naples.

Hot Links. Give him some distinctively designed silver-plated cuff links by Robert Talbott to accessorize with flare. These are a great gift for the man who has everything. $225 at Brodeur Carvell, 850 Fifth Ave. S., Naples.
