I would like to thank PETER for sending me his "Rolex Oyster Swimproof" watch stand as a gift!

Peter showed a pic of it in this thread:

"Thinking of buying a Rolex"

And I asked him if he would sell it, but he simply offered to give it to me as a present, and shipped it to me from Singapore!

I received it today, and I absolutely ADORE it!

Thanks again, Peter! I will treasure it!

You are a GREAT guy!

Here are some pics I just took (sorry about the poor lighting):

BTW: What you see on the adjustable watch holder is tape to protect the watch from getting scratches.

Wow

Don't see that every day with people.

Stef_Call · 23 September 2007, 09:08 AM

Great to see random acts of human kindness !!!!
Makes the world a better place.
A lovely gesture Peter. I couldnt think of a better place for it. Look forward to the SD & watchstand pics.

Fantastic gesture !! Peter you are one great guy

Gedanken · 23 September 2007, 09:46 AM

Hey, niiiiice! Good stuff, Peter!

EvEr34 · 23 September 2007, 12:34 PM

you are now in Bo's good graces for a while. Take advantage of it!

ROGU808 · 23 September 2007, 01:07 PM

Congratulations Bo!
Peter...Awesome Gesture lah! :)

LouCan · 23 September 2007, 01:12 PM

Nice one to add to the collection Bo. Also very nice of Peter

Alcan · 23 September 2007, 01:15 PM

Peter, you're a class act.

So, Bo. Let's extrapolate. Can I be reasonably assured that the next time you post a pic of your Rolex and I say I like it, that I can expect to see it in my mailbox shortly thereafter? Gratis?

daunwaun · 23 September 2007, 02:28 PM

what a stand up gesture from a standup member...and use it in good health spacedweller

astcell · 23 September 2007, 02:33 PM

Peter and Bo are reminding me of Disney's Chip and Dale. Two well-mannered chipmunks who go out of their way to be nice to one another. :-)

jasonbellevue · 23 September 2007, 02:36 PM

In fact it is not worth much, since Peter from start on told me that this one is a replica.

But frankly I don't give a damn about its worth! For me it is just a very nice stand, and I really like it.

Most important is Peter's great gesture which is worth more than anything, and I really appreciate it highly.

I was kidding. It is definitely the gesture that counts.

SPACE-DWELLER · 24 September 2007, 05:59 AM

I know, Mike!

The stand has now found its place right in front of me on my desk.

Cool thing, that stand is!

Gaijin · 24 September 2007, 06:11 AM
