Surprising Dad with a Rolex: Wrist Shot Delight
I was thrilled to surprise my dad with brand new Rolex Seadweller 43 that I had acquired with great enthusiasm directly from AD. As promised in my previous thread, I couldn't wait to share some wrist shots of him donning the striking SD43 while I wore my very own SDDS JC. The watch looked absolutely stunning on my dad's wrist, and he was over the moon with excitement. So much so, that he has been wearing it non-stop and even sleeps with it on! Seeing the joy on my dad's face made the entire experience even more worthwhile.
