Newbie Seeking Recommendations

[sharon]

hi! i'm a newbie here & would greatly appreciate any advice. i'm interested in buying a tiger woods watch for my 16 year old son. he's an avid golfer & would love one. i'm obviously only interested in a replica. he's pretty observant about things, so i'd like to get him a good quality and also one that he can wear daily. he golfs every day so i don't want anything that can only be worn on special occasions.

i've read through the forums and still can't decide. i had originally wanted the silicone or rubber band watch, but now i don't know if that might be too fragile for him. basically, he likes anything tiger wears!

his birthday is in a few weeks, so i have to decide soon. thanks so much in advance for any recommendations on models and/or dealers.

The tiger on rubber band should be fine, there was a member who posted a review that had bought it for his dad that golfed a couple times a week. No problem with it and impressed other golfers that had the same watch.

thanks for the advice. i did see that thread & was a little concerned because it sounded like he wouldn't normally wear it golfing. i think you're right, it would probably be fine. i just don't want it to fall apart!

any other first-hand knowledge of either dealers or the watch(es) would also be greatly appreciated!

thanks again!

Welcome along - if the watch was being worn by a boxer you might advise him to take it off first but any watch - mechanical or otherwise should be able to withstand the rigours of the golf swing!!
