That is outrageously clever! And quick. Well done.
You are the man who turned me on to the TOG and I am extremely grateful. It also makes me look like a TRF superstar, thanks to you. KUDOS, Bob!! Thank you. My Brother in Law is worthy of the hard work!

Very nice gift. The TOG was my first Rolex and now rests comfortably on my wife's wrist. Great choice, may your brother in law wear it in good health.

He is such a humble guy that he doesn't make a fuss over himself. I shouldnt take too much of the credit since my sister footed the bill :
Anastasios was the key to this all.

My first tt Rolex was an R serial Thunderbird (1987?) that I bought BNIB in 1990. I've given it to my oldest son.

To the OP - that is one hell of a thank you gesture to your brother in law. I'm sure he'd love it. Shows you've given this a lot of thought and you hit the mark by giving him a TOG.
