My son already has his own Rolex, but he will happily accept mine one day.
That's the way it should be too.

Mine will be entombed in my crypt, along with the wife, my cat, my accumulated wealth, and my house servants, so I may enjoy them in the afterlife.

My wife gets the pick of all or any of my collection. The rest goes to my brother, the bugger, who got me hooked on Rolex.

I only have one and I have willed it to my daughter. She doesn't wear watdhes, but I'm sure her husband (someday) will love it. Something to remember me by and her husband will love me to, even though he won't have known me.

The one I am wearing (along with my Sig) at the time of my demise will most likely be swiped by one of the two strippers that contributed to my death. The others will be ripped off and sold on eBay by my Guatemalan maid.

I told my wife not to worry, whichever unfortunate person fishes my dead body out of the ocean will likely keep it as a form of payment.

Now, the oldest of three sons. Once grandkids are here, the first male grandson will get my Expy II (White Face).
