This will be yours one day, little one.

This is our little boy. He's 4 days old. I bought this watch when my wife and I decided to start trying for a baby, fully intending to make it an heirloom piece in the future for either a boy, or a girl. Not only was it my first Rolex, but it was always going to be the one that would one day go to my child, assuming he wants it and appreciates it (which I'm sure he will).

Beyond excited and just wanted to share this happy moment with you guys.

Congrats, man! What a handsome little boy. My wife and I had our second son 10 months ago, and I share in your joy. I've already got it in my will which son gets which watches, so if y'all have a second child, I guess you'll need to buy another.

One word of caution: in a couple of months during diaper changes, just wait and see how fascinated he becomes with your watch...they're awfully grabby.

Congratulations again, and enjoy every moment.

The grabby hands don’t go away, my youngest (3 1/2 yeah old boy) while in my lap, always reaches for my BLNR and tugs at it.

Massive congrats on have a baby boy. I can't begin to imagine the swelling feeling of pride you're experiencing. I hope your son loves to Explore with his companion. (C'mon, I had to say it!)

Congratulations ������ , just remember it’s amazing how fast time passes! Before you know it you’ll be handing over the watch as he receives his college diploma.
