      Now you have to make a giant guitar for him too.

      That’s exactly what he’d expect now. Subvert expectations! Make a tiny guitar!

      There’s a luthier reading this post now exclaiming “Tiny guitar!? Absolute madness! We’re through the looking glass here, people”.

    I think your dad and my dad would vibe hard tbh. 😂 that music room screams my dad too. Oh and great job on the watch! I saw your other post too. Very cool. Even better when the recipient is happy!

    I mean it’s far more useful than that box full of small watches. He’s only got the two arms, and those things probably all cost hundreds of bucks a piece.

      Different watches for different occasions, just like ties, shoes, glasses, and every other piece of jewelry. One of those belonged to his grandfather, and another was a gift from his dad when he graduated college. I don’t think any of his watches cost more than $500, which, in the watch collecting world, isn’t a ton of money.
