Well we won the National championship few weeks ago. My son on my pit crew saved us over a minute in the pit stop. We won by less than that.

thinking of engraving the Daytona C I just gave him??

with this to remember the year and our great relationship...

thoughts??

DO IT !!
Father and Son

To many people here think only about the resale value - And that's not what it's about

Absolutely.

Engraved watches are time honored gift. It's one of the reasons that Rolex keeps their case-backs clear and flat.

RMC12 · 23 November 2016, 03:06 AM

Sounds like a great idea to me - makes a great gift all the more special!!!

tkerrmd · 23 November 2016, 03:14 AM

this is what life is all about, my son and best friend and now a National Championship we won as a team, I am "thinking" of doing the Platona at the same time!!??

tkerrmd · 23 November 2016, 03:16 AM

do both??

Disaar · 23 November 2016, 03:16 AM

Do it, I wish my dad would've done it!

Skyrider01 · 23 November 2016, 03:18 AM

Congrats on the championship! Great idea, go for it!

thanks and I didn't know that!!

TK-710 · 23 November 2016, 03:26 AM

I think it's a great idea. That's the way a Rolex should come from a father to a son.

Congratulations on the win

Watchgeek5000 · 23 November 2016, 03:29 AM

Definitely!!!!

Juantxo · 23 November 2016, 03:29 AM

Of course...!!! That decision should have been taken faster than switching gears on a Porsche. Congratulations...!!!

locutus49 · 23 November 2016, 03:31 AM

Huge congrats. I'm not big on engraving myself, but if it makes you feel good in commemorating the win, then definitely go for it. It would capture the memory in time.

LuminousMaximus · 23 November 2016, 03:34 AM

I think that is an awesome idea!! And, if you don't like it you can always get a new caseback and engrave again...

And congrats on a great team win!

WAK4 · 23 November 2016, 03:35 AM

Definitely do it! That's awesome, and congrats on the win!

tkerrmd · 23 November 2016, 03:39 AM

my son and I and these two Daytonas make a great pair, I may do both, then leave him the Platona.....well you know when...

tkerrmd · 23 November 2016, 03:41 AM

friends, family and Rolex all go together!!

Chewbacca · 23 November 2016, 03:42 AM

congratulations!

but, he already knows you love him... add the date of the race and the time you won by.

you also need a new vanity plate for his soon-to-be Panamera with the lap time.

Ragna · 23 November 2016, 03:55 AM

Do it.

Championship - Year
First name - First Name

thats my humble sugestion.

Devildog · 23 November 2016, 03:57 AM

Do it! That's an awesome idea. Memories are most important

Devildog · 23 November 2016, 03:58 AM

Great pics by the way. You should both be very proud

sensui · 23 November 2016, 04:03 AM

What a great bond you guys share. Not a fan of engravings but this seems perfect for the occasion. Congrats Dr Tom.

No doubt about it Doc...do it!

Congrats on the win to all involved

You · 23 November 2016, 04:09 AM

Yes go for it!

Kimber007 · 23 November 2016, 04:09 AM

Congrats, that is awesome!

Also, ENGRAVE THEM BOTH!!! Anytime you need a little extra motivation or just reassurance that someone is there for you, you can take it off and look at that.
