Do you think he was surprised?
I mentioned in a thread last week that Nancy and I had bought her son this Explorer II as a surprise birthday gift.
 We took him and his wife to our favourite restaurant last Saturday evening, and gave him a special hors d'oeuvre. You think he was surprised?  P.S. Pardon the pix quality, it's pretty dark in there.

My reactions when scrolling through the first 3 pics of him opening the watch were exactly the same as the expressions on his face each time

That's the stuff a life well lived is made of. When all else is gone, that sweet memory will live on for many years.
