I didn’t know who he was. Now I do. Great on him. He thought enough of his coworkers to invest in them with his gratitude. Can’t hate a man for that.

Very generous.

On side note, how many in that room are giving any thought to keeping the box, papers, hangtags, etc or just wearing home the new bling?

My guess is most of that stuff is going straight in the trash bin.

Box & papers not so important in this situation. He had these watches engraved and it is a nice gift that will have a personal sentimental value. I highly doubt any of them would ever be sold. (Me personally I would still keep box, papers, etc.)

4 Year 170m contract extension those watches are just a drop in the bucket!

The most important thing about these watches to me is the sentimental value behind them..

Its not really about the money. You can tell an individuals appreciation for his team by doing something like this. It didnt have to be a Rollie.

Good man. Look after your team and the people that matter.

Yeah, that's a great gift, but I just ran the numbers with that 170m contract, and it's the equivalent of me buying 12 of my friends something like a $120 G-Shock. Wow.

Reminds me of the Christmas gifts that Carson Wentz presented to his entire offensive line last year.

Not a topic that can be discussed here, but a similarly generous gesture of appreciation for his teammates.

Go Eagles!
