SiriHowDoIAdult

SmollOunceOfAids

AshFaden

SmollOunceOfAids

chalky87

bigbalbool

Yeah I didn’t have parents either. At least I had an uncle with benefits though


nift12

Wait, what benefits are you talking about exactly?

When I turned 18 my dad gave me the belt he whooped my butt with as a kid. Y'all get money?


Puzzleheaded-Let588

Nice B. Day present. Congrats.


Faceless_527

Thanks!


GREENK87

Very nice bro


saitan2

Perfect watch for an 18 year old. Should be pretty indestructible.


Youngsimba_92

Lucky enjoy ! Great choice


Faceless_527

Thanks!


Maelarion

Solid watch. Congrats .That it's a gift from your father makes it extra special my favourite watches are all like that - tied to a specific cherished memory or person (monetary value of the watch doesn't matter).


Faceless_527

Thanks I totally agree!!!


fartmanblartock

This is it right here. The watch is a symbol. Your time with dad is what really matters. The watch will always be a reminded for you. Care for the watch. Care for your relationship. Feel. The. Love. ❤️


Antares86

Awesome looking watch! Congrats and happy birthday! 😎👍🏻


Faceless_527

Thanks!


Downtown_Direction

I think you have cool dad.


SpaceTurf

Is your dad still available?


Flaky_Week2654

Did you get a discount?


Snickits

What’s the finish/ metal?


WatchTimeMachine

Titanium grade 2 so not great unfortunately. The watch is amazing but it doesn’t last given the solar setup and titanium. If you have money just buy a new one for sports every 5 years. I think it’s the best looking sports watch out there.


Snickits

To be honest I really like the brushed bronze/ gold look, but couldn’t tell if it was due to lighting or not.


Yakult4000

Nice 👍


Faceless_527

Happy Birthday and nice watch!


Faceless_527

Thanks


Interesting-Scar-800

Did you get into a good kollege?


Faceless_527

No it is just for my birthday also the school year doesn't end till the end of March here in Japan so that's still quite far away!!


Interesting-Scar-800

You are from Japan! Please... next watch... Grand Seiko!


Faceless_527

Definitely one brand that I want to try


Interesting-Scar-800

How is GS perceived in your age group in Japan?


Faceless_527

Sorry what is GS ???


Interesting-Scar-800

Short for Grand Seiko.


Faceless_527

🤦lol some of my friends that are in to watches and stuff don't really talk/know much about Grand Seiko I do see a lot of older people with them tho


Interesting-Scar-800

I see. But your friends will definitely recognize a Tag ?


Faceless_527

Tbh I don't think they will recognize a tag !


rajrain

Class.


Faceless_527

Thanks!


knittedshrimp

I got a Tag for my 18th too. I absolutely loved that watch. 20 years later it got stolen in a burglary. Get a safe and lock it away when you aren't wearing it.


Faceless_527

That sucks thanks for the heads up


DarkNecessities6

It’s a great watch, may it serve you well


Faceless_527

Thanks


Zinner4231

Very nice


Pudlem

The new aquaracer series is great!


orangecake40

I got a series 2000 when I turned 16. Congrats. (Yes I am that old)


Ok-Rice-9142

Happy birthday and congrats! Beautiful piece


XaltotunTheUndead

I think this is one of the nicest colorway in the Tag Heuer Aquaracer lineup. Watch afficionado love to hate Tag Heuer but truth is, they have some great value watches!


coinCram

Aquaracer is a solid piece.


karmakurrency

Excellent choice


rivalbro

Tried it yesterday, very light, seemed very good.


greatwesternforum

beautiful watch


Ecstatic_liver

Happy birthday! Great choice


Stock_Sandwich_320

Spoiled kid


neonomen

Senator Barack Obama chose to wear an Aquaracer. it's God tier. Black and steel is classic style.


nbmtx

big fan/proponent of the Solargraph. Great pick.


Cubiccircle101

I think you received one hell of a bday present 👍😎


LBKayyyy

Very cool


SmollOunceOfAids

Looks good , happy birthday. And I’m sure you do it . But tell your dad how much you appreciate him. You got a good dad.


Illustrious-Garlic30

Nice! Congrats man. Wear it in good health


Professional_Ant2415

Gorgeous and Congratulations (I love the powder blue accenting)


Seu--Madruga

Which model is that exactly? I can't find it on their website


Cocoabuttocks

Nice!


[deleted]

You are lucky to have a dad that buys you such a nice watch for your 18th. Enjoy 😊


Hot_Willow_5179

Nice! My first watch was a Tag Kirium, 1997!


obfuscatorio

Hell yeah enjoy that beautiful piece! Love the color of the seconds hand


Queasy-Bad600

Love this piece actually


StonksClown

I got a burago for my 18th birthday


whydutchwhy

Nice! Congratulations to you, take care of it! I got a Tag Formula 1 for my 18th and it was my most prized possession for many years. That was 20 years ago, I still have it but the crown broke off :(.


jlev88

Very nice. Enjoy it!


surghe

Damn all i got was a hug from my dad and a happy birthday message 🤣


Eastern_Chemist3726

Great choice my dude. Love the simple clean lines of the Aquaracer range. Wear it well.


Revolutionary_Cheek9

Way too much watch for an 18 year old...


surfer451

Objectively speaking I hate this watch. Way overpriced for what is ostensibly a citizen movement by another name. Subjectively speaking… I friggin want one… wears beautifully on the wrist, the pop of color is brilliant, and that movement should serve you well for years if not decades with minimal fuss. Congrats OP! Wear it in good health!


smarti1983

Looks cool ! Better than my 18th - 9/11 🤣


HICSF

Beautiful. Great choice.


WarmCat_UK

Happy birthday! Now tell us about that mechanical keyboard in the photo.


Big__________

Text mit deiner Kamera übersetzen This thing is great, I have a Tissot Gentleman Power. 80 from my parents for my 18th birthday, it's something you carry with you throughout your life


Puzzleheaded_Card_71

Beautiful. What is the model please and I can’t quite tell, is the dial brown or black?


SimilarCanary1255

That’s sick! Love it! For my 17th my dad gave me his old 2000. Essentially a quartz predecessor to the aquaracer of today


seankenny_98mac

Great watch, even better Dad


the1hoonox

I think your dad just spoiled you for your birthday, congratulations 🎊


GeneralAutist

I got told i was an adult on my 18th and my board was increased…


the_ammar

handsome pick. my first "watch" is a quartz tag my dad gave me on my graduation. still wearing it to this day and it'll always be with me. moments and memories is what makes the watch.


CDR_Starbuck

Stellar score!


CupOk7544

Dad saying, “keep your grades up, graduate college and make me proud.” You just before he pulls out his platinum Amex card, “Oh Hell to the YES, dad!!!


Travisty47

Congratulations and Happy Birthday…


Soggy_Conclusion601

I got cussed out for my 18th lol smh


Mysterious-Fig-7582

From your dad. That what makes it special. Good choice tho.


east0218

congrats


JustTesting436

Shits beautiful. I mess with the rotating bezel as well. Very nice pickup!!!!


Thunder-chicken300

Not too shabby at all !


bartfunk

I got the rubber hose for my 18th.


Vmax-Mike

Sounds like we had the same father.


Resident-Condition-9

Have the same one: fantastic watch


BlueberryT50

Nice watch. Since it's your father's present, cherish it and wear it in good health.


Itchy-Wafer2510

Your old man knows some stuff


juicy_jane_

OF factory?


ER_Co

I got this exact watch for my 18th! Absolute beauty! Enjoy


Soft-Photograph6390

It's nice


kernalrom

You deserve nothing. It’s just high school.


Ocotilloapril

Wow a couple grand for a quartz


IntelligentFormal559

Wow. Always keep it. Wow. Looks like a sea-master or ROP.


Formal-Front5230

What an amalgamation.


ndoty_sa

It’s beautiful. Cheers mate.


bkynaston

You have a VERY generous dad!


Thunder-chicken300

Classy watch & won’t get you killed for it ! For my 17th birthday I got permission to get a job so I could earn enough money to buy myself a 10 year old car for $500. (‘69 Nova SS) 🤣🤣You got it good kid !!


Up4Travel5010

My Dad and I.


SonicKiwi123

TAG Heuer Isn't really my cup of tea, but of their current offerings I think this is one of the better ones. *Very* nice of your dad to go out of his way to get this for you. Don't take it for granted!


ChristConquerz

I’d agree, I love Tag but they’re vastly overpriced compared to brands like Omega, Seiko or even Oris for chronometer spec and quality


teckel

"My dad and I"...


Formal-Front5230

Petty.


unlucky_tempura

While I think you could’ve done/gotten better, at the end of the day, it’s what you like that matters, so enjoy the watch! Love that this memory will be cemented between your dad and you, cherish it! Don’t ever sell it!


ChristConquerz

Said by the guy with GOD TIER watches, absolutely love your JLC and Tudor watches
