Gotta blame the old man as well.

My Dad sold his business back in '77 and bought the whole family YG Presidents. I was only 25 and don't think I went a day without wearing that watch over the next 10 years. Got tired of wearing gold after awhile so bought a GMT and later a Daytona but I still never can forget the feeling I had when my Dad gave me my first Rolex......and what a Rolex it was!!!!!

Thanks Dad
