··Hears dead people, not watch rotors.Get the Rolex that you want, as I'm sure you're thinking he will leave it to you.

·I'd say, that the Day-Date 36 is always a good choice! Like they say it's "Elegant. Precious. Prestigious. Turning every day into a promise for the future." Just choose your metal and you're ready to go!

·Haha that second comment hit way too close to home with those waiting lists! But seriously, if you can actually land a Day-Date 36 in time for next week, go for it. Can't go wrong with a classic like that for an 80th

·Looks like you're new to the forum. Additional context would be helpful such as what watches he wears today, how he prefers to dress, his wrist size and how much you want to spend.
Making a bunch of assumptions that he's ok with smaller watches and not rough with them, a vintage Oyster or Datejust is a good affordable choice. If you want a modern Rolex and want a chance of getting one from an AD, a Datejust is probably your best bet.

·I have to admit, when I read the initial post my internal response was not positive. If that was your way of breaking the ice, I'd say you miscalculated.
