Baby incoming!!!

as the title states, we are expecting in 7 weeks! im so excited to be a daddy. since us men have it so easy, i really thought about the whole pregnancy process and how hard it is on a womens body. it made me appreciate my wife alot more. so as a "push gift" i bought my wife her first Rolex. thanks to Patrick (OCROLEXGUY) for hooking it up. Cheers!

Congrats on the baby coming and on your wife's new watch. Hope she enjoys wearing it. Now she can time her contractions when the time comes.

Congratulations sir What a great idea. I was just thinking about what rolex would best suite my girlfriend and I kept thinking that AK is a good looking watch. Looks good on her wrist.

Congrats on the baby! Your world is about to be forever changed for the better. And nice watch, it'll come in useful as you reach for it to find out it's 3:26am and baby is awake---again.

Very cool gift for the wife. Congrats on becoming a new Daddy! It is an awesome life changing experience that is the best thing that ever happened to me!

And you're right, us men have it so easy compared to the women. Moms rule!

All the best to you and your wife on the upcoming birth.

Congrats! Is this your first child? If so love them dearly. They grow so fast. It is an awesome experience to raise a child. Lovely gift for your wife/mom! Beautiful watch you picked for her. Just wondering is it a boy, since you picked a blue dial!
Aloha from Kauai,
Tom

I see you chose the green pill. The rabbit hole goes deep. Good luck to you and your wife and baby. You are soon about to find out why we are put on this planet.

Congrats and well done! You've certainly set the bar high. Next time around if she is pregnant with twins that push gift may have to have some diamonds on it! lol.
