big 6-0

It was my father's 60th birthday over the weekend. For Koreans, the 1st and 60th birthdays are huge milestones.

I was on here a few months ago asking for advice on what watch to get him. (Thread: http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=399375) Ended up going with the best advice and asked my mother what he wanted.

My brother and I got him an Omega AT >15000 Gauss which he tried on at an AD and really liked. My father and his siblings got my grandfather an Omega for his 60th so I guess this is a tradition now. My brother recently got my grandfather's watch serviced and is wearing it now after years of hibernation.

I'd like to thank DavidSW for an easy transaction and TRF for introducing me to its trusted sellers.

Some pics for your enjoyment!

Happy 60th birthday to your father!! Awesome gift and I really enjoy seeing the different ways that different cultures celebrate milestones. We are celebrating 65 with my father in a few weeks and I am really looking forward to it. Enjoy every minute you have and tell him how much he means to you.
