..."force feed" my children to move forward with their horological journey so that they will eventually want (or would not be despised) to take possession of my watches. Fortunately, they love buying and wearing watches, just like their father ! I set the...

Best wishes to you and your family for 2017. Enjoy Bill

against buying more watches for the children ! I convinced her by saying the new watches can help our children to read time. She agreed ! LOL ! The horological journey may not be easy with my other half ! LOL ! Cheers, Gordon

I got Hello Kitty Special Edition and Sophia the first Special Edition for them. Hence, they enjoyed wearing watches even though they could not really read time yet. LOL ! Cheers, Gordon ...

Good legacy. Cheers.

generous, However, if they eventually have no interest in watches or misbehave, should I change my mind. ? Cheers, Gordon

My 3yo little monster already has his eye on Daddy\'s watches (Omega 300M C Axial is the fave). Necessary features for him: crown he can wind, bezel to turn and display back to look through. Of course, he is a little rough on my watches now so I\'ve sacri...  

I was not willing to sacrifice any of my watches so I bought them the swatches below when they were 5 years old. Cheers, Gordon ...  

I should have given him a swatch or Flik-Flak but now only my old Seiko5 will do. Luckily, I am no longer into 2-tone bracelets so he can have it. Must say, Seiko are built to last. I can\'t believe that watch is still ticking after what my now-3yo puts i...  

I don't have kids but as long as they have fun and it remains educational at the same time, it is perfect imho. It will be nice assisting them into this journey, especially as in the future it is not that natural for people to go toward the mechanical wat... 

pass your Pateks to eventually? If you want them to go to the next generation of PuristS from PuristPro, my children will volunteer! LOL ! Cheers, Gordon

It\'s still early days. The first watch my daughter got was a NOS Fortis Mini Flipper, so handwound, no date The next was a FlikFlak. But as she\'s yet to reach three, it\'s more play than anything else Thanks for sharing!

how to wind a watch ! She must have your PuristS DNA. Cheers, Gordon

A fake it till you make it attempt from daddy But she enjoys the sound it makes...

they would buy something that does not help them to tell time at all. LOL! Cheers, Gordon

Btw, does the back of your limited edition 6000r have a removable cover? Thought I saw a "lip" at the bottom of the rear side=) J

...used for watchmakers to open the case. The 6000 is not designed as an officer case, hence in order to have the engraved map of one China (inclusive of Taiwan), a hard case is used. Cheers, Gordon

a great piece as an heirloom watch! Cheers, Gordon

And starting them on Maki-e and other stuff too? Your "avatar" photo caught my eye.

...enamel, urushi, etc. In additional to developing their appreciation of mechanical watches, perhaps they could be inspired to be artisans for handcrafted dial ? Cheers, Gordon

I love my 5712A but at times, light and beautiful, but feel that crown edges are too sharp and cut into the wrist. I wish the edges were a bit smoother like on some other Patek models or on all Rolexes.

All three of these watches are beautiful in their own light. lol The real question is which wrist will inherit the Patek...? ;-)

technical knowledge of watch movements ! The other will get the my wife\'s Patek ladies China version. Sounds fair? Cheers, Gordon ...  

But what happens if both have equal knowledge...? lol

compete on watch design, artisanal dial work, etc If still a tie, then I need to buy more Pateks! Cheers, Gordon

Good to start appreciating the finer things in life from young. 2 thumbs up!

dothe same ! Cheers, Gordon

Sadly everything is 7 o\'clock. My 9 year old doesn\'t care...it\'s on his iPad!

the heir apparent to your great collection ! He is a very blessed young man to have such a meaningful and wonderful birthday present for his 18th year ! May the father and son team in your household enjoy many memorable moments in collecting watches toget... 

That seems to be the trend at this year\'s SIHH!
