    I hope you show him how to align the bezel properly!

    Great gift for a 21 year old, unfortunately my daughter told me NOT to get her a watch for her 21st

    Fab Dave. I hope he's still wearing it when he's 40 and beyond.

    Happy impending birthday Seikopath Jr!

    That's a great choice, was he involved in the decision?

    I knew he really liked it, so it was an easy choice to make.

    I just hope it fairs better than the two g shocks he has completely muntered!

    Mind you, he has had a prs17c for a couple of years and that hasn't come a cropper yet, so there is hope.

    Can't wait to see his face when he realises how much a battery change is going to cost him! Hashtag lolz

    Welcome to the layer cake, son.
    Good luck everybody. Have a good one.

    Nice choice of strap - hirsch performance? Did you choose it or did he?

    I did graham. I'm a big fan of the HP range. Unlike alot of expensive watch straps, i think they are actually worth it! Very comfy in hot weather and guaranteed for something like two and half years.
    Good luck everybody. Have a good one.

    That is a great combo, the red on the strap picks out the colour on the dial really well. But much more than that it is a gift with thought and meaning behind it. Nice one, and happy birthday to your son.

    Great gift to your son.
    Would of liked to have got my son a watch for his 21st. But hey ho he did not want one.
    Gave him my 1st Seiko Kinetic as part of his 18th. Then bought it back of him!!!

    Great gift, hope he understands about the gravity bounce between 6-12!
    Really fancy one of these they are a great size in diameter and thickness and just very different from lots of other watches..

    Could I ask why it took you so long to source a EZM2?
    I ask as I’m considering trying to find one and understand the battery change is like a service where the watch comes back like new, so I was thinking if I picked one up that had seen better days then it would be straight off to Sinn for service/refurb..
