A New York man shocked his fiance this Christmas with a surprising, sentimental gift.

Vas Alli spent a month looking through 10,000 vintage teddy bears online, looking for clues to reconstruct his fiance Jess' childhood teddy bear named "Whitey."

When he finally found it, the bear was in bad condition. Its head was ripped off and it was missing various parts. But, thanks to his diligent research, a teddy bear hospital was able to restore Whitey to his former glory.

Alli proposed to Jess Christmas Eve of 2012.
