Gave one of my watches to my Son.
My adult Son has always admired the few rolex watches that I've owned over the years and has come to appreciate a quality watch. Unfortunately, because of the economic situation in the country he hasn't been able to afford a Rolex of his own. Back in 2005, he lost a great position he held for eight years due to downsizing. He's moved to Chicago and Dallas for very good jobs that were unfortunately then cut because of economic reasons. He recently returned to Ohio where he's worked short term positions that were the only employment available. Thankfully, about three weeks ago he landed a great position with decent pay, good hours and a very nice benefits package. However, he now has to make up for a lot of lost time and certainly won't be in any position to purchase a Rolex any time soon.
He'll be turning 40 and I though it would be a nice jesture to part with my Sub C and let him enjoy the ownership of a Rolex watch. I hope in some small way this will make up for some of the disapointment he's suffered due to the economy. Its also a reward for not giving up on himself and even though sometimes failing, getting back up and trying again and again. And yeah, just beacuse I love my Son. That too. |
