Being a Dad I can understand the joy you have given your father. Not that it's a Rolex simply that you gave him a very special present that means the world to him. You are a very special girl Jen

Jen, your father is very lucky to have as thoughtful a daughter as you!!!
The giving of a gift such as this watch is priceless and shows the boundless love you have for your Dad!!!
I know it has to make you feel good and I know your father must feel pride in raising a caring, giving daughter!!!
