One down two to go
After seeking the advice of the forum I have bought an unworn 2014 Submariner date for my grand son. He is currently three years old. I plan to present him with this watch on his eighteenth birthday. His birth year watch.
I have two grand daughters so I am hunting down a 2011 & 2016 suitable for the girls. Picture attached (I hope) |

Are you planning to wear it until you give it to him? Then it would be "Grampa's watch and be a bit special.

This gesture is as beautiful as the picture you posted. I'm torn between you presenting as new or wearing them to build an association to the watch. Although you don't strike me as diamond VI type of guy.
