For watch enthusiasts to discuss everything related to watches and horology.
Got it when I got married a couple years ago! Love it a lot!
Future plan is to hand it down to my son when he gets married.
EDIT: Not sure why the picture auto-rotated :/
Nice! I got the white dial rose gold version, one of my favorites at the moment.
(I think lemmy has a bug where pictures have metadat stripped or so I read on a different post)
Oh right. That makes sense!
Your choice is a classic one, much like my favorite watch which was passed down from my grandfather to my dad, and then to me. The timeless design of your watch, as with mine, makes it an ideal family heirloom. Each time I wear my dad's watch, I'm taken aback by the realization that it's over half a century old. I hope that one day, your son will feel the same awe.
In the meantime, I hope your time with the watch too. The wear and tear it will inevitably acquire will only add to its charm. My watch, while well-maintained and in great condition, was worn daily by my father. The marks of use from his everyday life over 50 years make it even more special to me. It is a reminder of him and everything he did for me. I once told my wife that I feel like a better dad to my kids when I wear it because it reminds me of what I'm working for.
