That is such a great thing you did for your father! I have both references and are my SS divers. I love the both equally. Your father is so stoked!

This is really good vibes....you are a great son. I can't figure out which feeling is greater. your father's joy or your pride in gifting this to him. Either way, you are awesome. Here's to many years enjoying watches with your dad!

Great !


, but may I recommend both should find a good tailor to tailor your pants length properly. Will be a better look w/ watches. Just a suggestion, but glad took pics w your suits!

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.

Congrats to him!

Wonderful gift. I love gifting watches. I think it might feel better than purchasing for yourself.
