Caseback Engraving Inspiration
I have two sons. Newborn and a two year old. I purchased a Rolex for each of them for their first birthdays. Can I get some inspiration from you guys on what to engrave on the back?
I plan on giving it to them on their wedding day or maybe college graduation. It’s a long ways away but I’ve always planned ahead all my life. |

I have 2 boys. I wonder if if is better to hand write inside the caseback the message rather than hand engrave. Using perm marker or something like that.

Love the sentiment. What a great day it will be when you give them the watch!

There isn't a ton of space so keeping it short and sweet is best.
Perhaps their initials and dates of birth.

I don’t know how well this would fit but for my oldest daughters yearbook sentiments I wrote- No matter how far away you travel, never forget the way back home.

That’s some fine hand writing. Think I’d rather exterior engraving. |
