Thats good! As fathers we just want the best for them! My wife and I are trying to train her to create generational wealth. She has a lot of pressure lol. But she will have a head start.

I keep her grounded tho. She is now comfortably able to walk into a Walmart wearing her Patek watch lol

But no one in there right mind is thinking a kid is rocking a pp

And great for her 5711, but you also know it's a great investment

And my sons head start is wisdom, u get nothing for free and hard work rewards, iot certainly has for me, (I'd still accept the job u gonna offer me tho)

Lol, when my daughter met Terry Sterns and Larry Petinella, i told them we like the PP logan but adopted our own take of it. That instead of looking after the watch for the next generation, We are trying to create memories that will be with her long after we are gone. When she picks up her watch, she will remember the times that she went to grand openings etc.

Once i find a real job, ill call you until then lol

Lol you and your memes, if it makes it sound better, i made her sell her rolex to pay for part of her 4700. The 5711 will be my investment for her. When she turns 21 she can sell it. Its just part of her college fund.

Yes shes 8 lol.

Thank you, Gentlemen! Once I saw it in person, I was done. I love how it can be worn casually (jeans and a plaid shirt as seen in my pics above) or in a suit and tie. It’s a great modern size and that gives it nice versatility.
