Don't engrave anything your son sounds intelligent and would likely question your decision since it will devalue the watch. Leave it as is........

He has enough capital, it’s the buying process that’s difficult, almost as bad as Rolex..

Sentimental: “Love - Dad”

Cliched: “Time is Money”

Congrats to you both

It’s amazing how many people will suggest a watch on this thread, instead of a quote

I told him that the watch has no monetary value, since it’s a gift that he should keep.....I’m also picking up a new case back Incase times ever do get ruff and the money is needed more then a item, he knows it would have to be a extreme case..

Buy low, sell high. But seriously, skip the engraving or keep it to initials and the date.

Also: This, too, shall pass. Everything good and bad is temporary. Before we get too attached to anything good or bad, understanding that time will pass, circumstances will change, and this too, shall pass.
