Hors d'oeuvres? I thought last week it was going to be the dessert?

Either way, it still makes a tasty treat!

Only you can tell if he was surprised...but it's plain to see that he's more than happy. Great gift and, I'm sure, one that he will always treasure. Well done!

Really nice watch! Lucky fellow.

I hope he does better than my daughter. In 1999 I had give her a really nice Rolex Datejust 18K/Stainless steel. Subsequently I had the watch fully service, then later a nice diamond bezel installed. Now the watch needs servicing again---Guess what? It's sitting in a drawer not running. I guess she'll needs a Timex now. Pop ain't paying for that again! Her turn.
