Nixon watch

Ok I bought one of these last year for a gift for someone. I didn't give it or return it. It's new in the box. My question is this: have a 15 year old nephew. I'm thinking of giving (reviving?) this to him for Xmas.

Appreciate thoughts on this?

Thanks.

I'm sure your nephew will be thrilled to receive a Rolex Daydate.

Nixon is very popular with the high school crowd these days so I'm sure your nephew will appreciate the gift very much.

Update for anyone who cares: gave the boy the watch. Git a smile and thanks. But didn't take it out of the box. Boys mother asked me later where I bought it. Avoided answering. Yesterday she asked me for the receipt so he can return it.

So I guess Nixon's not the one!
