Roopra’s commitment to “quality, speed of delivery, and meticulous attention” made Bath perform this gesture reportedly.
The watch, a Rolex Oyster Perpetual Sky-Dweller in 18-carat yellow gold comes with the make’s signature gold Oyster bracelet.
How was the ‘fort’ designed?
The property was designed by architect Ranjodh Singh. It has a sweeping boundary wall around it, making it pretty much a private fort.
It has expansive halls, carefully landscaped gardens, and unique architectural elements, according to the report.
