Two of my daughters want their grandmother's gold Rolex. The oldest is more into Vintage Jewelry and Clothing (that's her line of business) and has little interest.
The younger one will probably get it and the middle one will get my wife's Rolex as they are the same watch (her father bought two of them when in Europe, some 45 years ago, when they were cheap by today's standards...). That way the younger one will also have something special from her grandmother...
They borrow stuff all the time for special occasions, as one shares a townhouse with 3 other girls and the other just got married last year and living in a rented condo, with no place to secure them...
When they are more settled in their living arrangements, we'll give them to them to keep...
