Hey, congrats! JF answered a similar question:

I think the thing with it is, it's going to be so long until she can wear it, would you want something you (or your partner) can wear until you pass it on? Or would it just sit in a drawer/safe for the best part of two decades? If the latter then maybe it makes more sense to buy yourself a watch to celebrate now (and to remind you of her every time you look at it), and then something to mark a significant occasion in her life - 18th, graduation, wedding, etc - when the time comes.

I think that’s the best ideas, more sentimental value.

Cheers mate. Yeah gonna have a think. Both of us have 3-4 watches on rotation so had thought to just get one and put it away. Might just buy a case of Bordeaux instead!

Baby daughter is coming soon and I’d thought to buy her a watch to celebrate the birth and give to her at a later date - should I do this now or look for a model when she can choose it?
