My parents gave me a fake Rolex from Tijuana at that age. Girl. This was in the early 90s. I loved it.

What? No way, not ever. This shouldn’t be a gift at all. This is a something he should buy for himself, with his own earned money, when he finds enough success to afford something so frivolous. No man (or teen) with any self respect wants a $10k + watch gifted from mommy while he is broke and jobless

Yes. You are crazy to give a 15 year old boy a Rolex. I wouldn't even give it to him for his 16th birthday. Save it for graduation.

When he graduates college, he will be more responsible. That's an expensive gift to be lost or stolen.

Yes. First, what has he done to earn or deserve this extravagant gift? Second, it can easily be stolen at school.

Ask your country club friends. If it’s a submariner that pairs well with his Ferrari.

If it’s just an oyster or explorer no one will care - pairs well with a wannabe used bmw or Mercedes.

Rolex screams parvenu, my dear, but you are free to do whatever you want. Your son probably relies on his phone, but if HE wants a watch, and of the Rolex type, why not? Maybe you should ask him first.


I’m certainly not buying him a Nautilus or Royal Oak. His group of friends have all developed an interest in mechanical watches suddenly.

That would be just bonkers to give on a 15th birthday! 16th? Ok.

You had a plan. Stick to the plan.

I didn't think boys had sweet 16s.

If you really have Rolex money, the traditional present around that age would be a car, not a watch.
