With father's day coming, I have been looking around what's best for him.
After a breif discussion, my understanding is he wants a non-WG, round and automatic watch.
My first thought is, of course, 5296R. But there is none available. I saw a 5711Y and was quite fond of it. But is it too sporty for a 70 YO person? What do you guys think?
If there is any other good suggestions, please let me know!
My father is around 70'ish. Wore Rolex Oyster all his life.
Best,
Jack

When I was looking for a watch for my 70+ yo father, the most important thing is really "legiblility" meaning he should be able to read the time quite easily.
5711 in all metals (R/G/J/1A) are good choice if you want to buy PP. But as Dent7998 indicates, are you sure your father wants to wear PP or would he prefer to stay with Rolex or something casual? Also, he might be "shocked" at the price of PP vs. Rolex and not wear it as often, even though I assume that you are picking up the bill. There are quite a few 5296R in the AD shops in Taipei. You should still be able to find them in both sector dials as well as in the plain dials (since I know there is NO PPs in any HK ADs!) Along the same type of watches, I've always thought that the Rolex Cellini Platinum is SEVERELY undervalued and a great buy also! The VC Patrimony is also quite nice and comparable to the PP Calatrava. If you are looking for sporty SS watches other than Rolex, I would also recommend looking at AP Royal Oak and VC Overseas. Good luck with your search! |
