Zenith Port Royal V circa 2000

I pulled the trigger on a Monterey Commodore with a white dial during the call last night. Can you believe that discount??? I found myself checking my email all day to see if I received a shipping notification. I am so looking forward to receiving this watch. I may need to start calling Tim “Santa”.

To Commemorate the 60th anniversary of the"Peanuts" Timex came out with some interesting watches to celebrate. For Christmas this year my younger son (vying for favored child status) preordered me this Snoopy Pilot Watch! The watch arrived yesterday and it does not disappoint! It won't be a daily wear or be in a regular rotation as I would like to "keep" it in collectable condition. As a BIG Snoopy fan as well as a Pilot and of course a watch guy, my son really did well for me. Just another example of "you don't have to spend a lot of money" for something to have meaning and be a fun collectible! Have a great Friday Everyone!!

Gents - this challenge was something special. So many of you shared stories that weren’t just about a watch… but about family, legacy, and meaning. Exactly why we do this. Now… for the winner 🥁🥁🥁 🏆 WINNER: @Jeffrey Plotka Jeffrey’s story hit deep because it was about an heirloom and a tradition that keeps getting passed down. The watch that started it all for him was a graduation gift from his dad — engraved: “To Jeff Love Dad.” It’s not even his usual style (thin, light, more of a dress piece)… but he’s kept it for 40+ years, still wears it on occasion, and still has it serviced. That’s respect. But here’s the real turning point: That watch taught Jeffrey what time really means — and what it means to carry someone forward. His grandfather gave his father a watch. His father gave him one. And Jeffrey has now given a watch to each of his boys. Even more powerful: when they get dressed up, all three of them wear Dad/Grandpa’s watches together — and those stories come back to life every time. @Jeffrey Plotka this is an incredible and inspiring story! And gents - keep these stories coming in the community feed. This is the good stuff!

Gents - we have an incredible last-minute deal to share with the group! After a fantastic conversation with Tim Hermes yesterday, he dropped an exclusive discount code that is—hands down—one of the best deals we’ve ever seen for Monterey Watches. Use code RMRS100 at https://montereywatches.com/ This code offers a $100 discount - massive savings especially on specific models. For example, on some models like the Kitty Hawk, you’re looking at nearly 40% off! ⚠️ The Catch: Time is Running Out This code was only authorized for a 24-hour window and expires between 5:00 PM and 6:00 PM CST TODAY. That means you only have about 7–8 hours left to lock this in. Once the clock strikes 6:00 PM, the code is gone. How to get it: 1. Head over to https://montereywatches.com/ 2. Pick out your timepiece (check out the Kitty Hawk for the biggest savings!). 3. Enter code RMRS100 at checkout. Sorry for the short notice on this one - but we wanted to make sure everyone in the group—paid members or not—had a fair shot at it. Go grab one before the deadline!
