X2!
I picked up a blue OP a couple weeks ago, it's such a great and versatile piece. Enjoy!

I'm trying to resist. I know with the OP and the Speedy, I've got pretty much any occasion covered......but I can pretty much cover any occasion with just the OP! I know if I sell the Speedy, I'll wish I hadn't.

Yeah, that's what I'm afraid of. I'll likely keep it.

He'll love it - especially with a pic of him wearing it as an infant.

I just think about how cool I would have thought that was. Hopefully he'll think the same.

He will - my parents didn't have any $ when I was that age and it probably wouldn't have even been on their radar at their age if they had (young), I think it's cool as shit that you are A) Thinking about things 20 years ahead of time and B) you are in a financial position to do something like that for your son. Kudos.

Yeah, there's no way my parents could have either. I'm by no means "wealthy" but we do alright. Most of the money I used to buy this piece I got from buying/selling vintage Seiko pieces. I was lucky enough to purchase a handful of VERY sought after pieces before the vintage Seiko market exploded. It basically enabled me to buy my Speedy Pro and this piece without getting into too much trouble with my wife.

Great watch! Could be a part of a collection, or as the collection.

Congrats on the incoming watch buddy and more importantly on your baby boy. My son is 6 months old so they must be pretty close.
