Well, how we start a sign up sheet. We can call it "who wants to be Bubba's friend". I will start it:

Well I would say your friendship means more to him then the watch. But what a nice way to ice the cake

Wonderful gift and a great find on the Submariner, Joe!

Great gesture!

JJ Irani · 15 July 2008, 05:52 PM

Joe,

Your generosity and kindness knows no bounds. I was the very recent recipient of that magnanimous gesture you and your wonderful wife so openly display.

You left me dumb-struck at the time.....and I now have the same feeling once more. I can just imagine how your friend would feel when he receives that watch.

It's good people like you that this world could do with a few more of, buddy!!

Best - JJ

neutrons · 15 July 2008, 05:57 PM

Worth every penny. I am sure he is a fine friend. Let us know what he says.

topcat30093 · 15 July 2008, 06:08 PM

What a grand gesture.
I hope that they where over the moon with it.

f16570 · 15 July 2008, 06:14 PM

Great gift, I am sure they will enjoy.

buz-lh · 15 July 2008, 08:07 PM

As JJ said, the world could use more folks like you. Great gesture.

Blimey Stuart that's a long time for your wife to wait for Bubba to make his move, hope you are keeping her interested

rolexrealtor · 15 July 2008, 11:38 PM

Wow, nice gift!

RolexerATL · 15 July 2008, 11:55 PM

Wow, nice gift.
I'm filling out business school today!!!

redshirt1957 · 16 July 2008, 09:05 AM

My wife gave the watch to our friend today and since we all work in the same place I was able to watch. After he opened the box and stared at the watch for five minutes with his mouth hanging wide open; I did the correct thing and left. Boy did he look happy. Five hours later he is most likely still there and by now his tounge is on the floor.
