WINNER for “The Watch That Started Your Journey” Challenge 🥁🥁🥁
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’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.
this is an incredible and inspiring story!
And gents - keep these stories coming in the community feed. This is the good stuff!
