In a heartwarming post from March 2020, Jurry shares how his family creatively celebrated a new grandchild's arrival and his daughter-in-law's birthday amidst global quarantine restrictions. Unable to deliver the gift in person, Jurry unpacks a beautiful Rolex himself, capturing the moment through photographs to share with the WatchProSite community and his family via video. This post beautifully illustrates how significant life events and thoughtful gestures transcend challenging circumstances, making a new Rolex a timeless symbol of joy and connection.

My dear friends,

Our daughter in law is celebrating her birthday today (and she just gave birth to a beautiful baby girl) and to mark that occasion, we bought a very nice Rolex for her.

Unfortunately, due to travel restrictions and quarantine rules, we can only celebrate "at distance" so we had to unpack the gift ourselves and share with her via video.

Im sharing some of the pics with you as our deer friends

We had to be creative

Steel but bezel is white gold

I love that blue dial
