One for the grandson

[bananahawk]

Hi Guys,

Very new to this forum. Hello Everyone!

My dad and I are thinking of getting our very first Rolex. I've spent 6 months reading and researching and finally set on getting a SS GMT2c. I'm 25.

Dad is 55 and doesn't know much about watches. His only brief to me is that wants me to find him "something i can pass to my grandson".

Of course I'm not married and so he doesn't have any grandchildren yet, but I think it's a hint for me.

In any case, I really dont know what to recommend him. He has a normal size wrist and would consider YG. Preferably not too sporty as he has been wearing a sporty watch for the past 15 years and I am getting the GMT. (I'm secretly thinking that if he gets a dressy watch, I could borrow it on certain occasions).

The one time I took him into the local AD, I showed him the Daytona and he didn't like it. We then looked at the DJ II in YG. He liked it but didn't love it and from reading on the this forum, it doesn't appear to be something of a classic (obviously because its new) and something you could pass down.

Any suggestions of one for my future son would be grateful!
