Lemmies, today is Father's Day. Here's a picture of the watch my dad handed down to me, originally a gift from his dad. I remember my dad put it on every day when getting ready for work, and its wear tells a story.

Sometimes it blows my mind at it is older than me. This guy is closing in on half a century of stories. If you were lucky enough to have inherited one of your dad's watches, then maybe today would be a good day to add to the stories that can tell. If you are dad, like me, then maybe today is a good day to start a tradition of your own.

Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there!

Edit: Seems like photo uploads aren't working right now. Here's a link if you care to see my dad's Rolex.dad's watch
