My daddy has the same watch

I was in line yesterday at the market and this 3 or 4-year-old was with his mom in front of me, cute kid. I was wearing my SD4K,

The kid holds onto my hand and says "my daddy has the same watch".

I suspect he will be joining this forum in 15 years or so... I doubt my kid could tell the difference between a Casio and a Rolex.


Anyways, my reply was "your daddy has good taste in watches"

The kid made my day!

Always nice to get props from a 3 year old, but for all we know his daddy's watch is a Casio.

Did Mommy put the kid up to it to try and introduce you to her?
