Chandigarh: People often go to extraordinary lengths to create something unique that reflects their personality or passions. It’s not uncommon for individuals to travel to remote artisans for handmade goods, or to commission intricate, personalized designs that push creative boundaries. Some dive into learning niche skills like glass-blowing or metal forging just to craft one-of-a-kind items. Others even seek out rare materials—like stones, fabrics, or woods—that carry a special story or significance.
One man in Punjab has gotten a fort made for himself. Yes, we are not making it up! He has gotten a Rajasthan-style private for made on his 9-acre property. According to an NDTV report, Gurdip Dev Bath presented his contractor, Rajinder Singh Roopra, with a Rolex watch valued at an astounding ₹1 crore as a gesture of appreciation for his work on Bath’s 9-acre estate, which has been designed to resemble a traditional Rajasthani fort.

The gesture from Bath was reportedly inspired by Roopra’s unwavering commitment to “quality, timely delivery, and meticulous attention to detail” throughout the project. The gifted Rolex, an exquisite Oyster Perpetual Sky-Dweller model in 18-carat yellow gold, is renowned for its elegant design and technical sophistication. Complete with the brand’s signature gold Oyster bracelet, the watch stands as a symbol of luxury and is a fitting acknowledgement of Roopra’s hard work and dedication.
