Thanks all for your replies and comments. I am thrilled to see the other family photos in the thread....sons, daughters, fathers, mothers all sharing in our passion.
I think my favorite is Eric and his sons Batman watch....that thing is awesome!

Your son is off to a great start! It's wonderful sharing this hobby too.

I love love love this thread. On Saturday I was pushing my 2 year old son in the shopping cart at Costco and as soon as he saw the watch case he let out a joyous cheer. It was at that very moment that I realized I am little by little creating a monster :)

Such great pics. I can't wait until my little guy (15 months) is old enough to start his WIS obsession! Right now he just plays with my shiny watch while getting changed.

Got my son hooked on watches a few years ago. Christmas in Hawaii, Sub-C for me and Black Bay Black for my son...

downtorock · 21 January 2016, 02:58 PM

That's awesome! Congrats!!!

Good choice he made

Hairdude1 · 21 January 2016, 03:10 PM

Very nice!

Ckci · 21 January 2016, 04:03 PM

You would think I bought them PM Rolex watches. The younger one, Lainie, kept saying, "I wish I had a watch that glowed." They picked these out yesterday.

She's also the one who gathers up all the change she can find around the house and says, "look how much money I have."

Here's my contribution...

I have for so long influenced my Wife with my hobby, though she's not really into it, she still joined in the fun...and my Daughter herself got a Watch of which she chose herself...

Nice shots guys...

axjimenez · 21 January 2016, 11:10 PM

Very cool!

Our Father/Son photo with my BLNR and his new Seiko.

He knows at some point he is getting my 1999 A-serial GMT Master II Pepsi...his birth year.

A great shot and great choice for a first watch!!

Haha. I bought my daughter the pink LeapBand for Christmas. I hope it doesn't lead her down the smart watch route! (although my guess is that it is inevitable)

Man, I have 3 sons, all in college... I told each they get a Rolex at Graduation...
All are in engineering, so explorer or Sub will be their choices most likely but will let them decide

Tom- you are a great Dad and I am sure the boys are most appreciative of that fine gesture!

Cheers

WatchWeb · 22 January 2016, 07:55 AM

Great thread & nice to see your son has a interest early 👍🏻.

I've loved Rolex ever since my father got his GMT Coke . I wanted my first to be brand new but still kept the tradition & went with the GMT LN.

It's nice to have a hobby in common .

BigJoe · 22 January 2016, 08:04 AM

I had an old Omega in my "watch drawer" for years. Looked like someone took a hammer to it... My younger son who as far as I knew never cared for watches asked if he could have it. Darn if he didn't get it all fixed up and it hasn't left his wrist since.
