Sharing the love…

For watches that is…
Today is my daughter’s 21st Birthday! Wow, that came up fast; although some childhood years were agonizingly slow - haha. You parents out there might relate!

Today she got the Orient as 1 of her presents. The Oris goes her way this Spring for College graduation. She’ll get the OP for her golden birthday at 31. The case back engraving states: I am truly blessed. Meaning, to have her as my daughter!

I’ve converted an iPhone user to an actual watch. That counts as a parental achievement, right?!?

Happy Birthday to her, hope she has a wonderful day!

One of the best ways to mark milestones is with a nice watch or piece of jewellery that lasts and serves as a reminder of the achievement and the person that gifted it to you.

I'm thrilled to hear of someone under 25 that doesn't only use smart watches.

All there of those are fantastic pieces. As an Orient owner, I can attest to the durability and design traits. Oris has always been on my radar, that dial is stunning. No idea how they achieved it or what it's made of, but wow. And for the Oyster, that speaks for itself in the best of ways.

Looking forward to the post secondary graduation thread, Janet!

:
This Oris is known as the Aquis Upcycle. The dial is made of PET plastic found in the ocean. Oris is known for its conservational awareness. Teddy Baldassare does a nice review. https://youtu.be/1XxttpPrv4M
