    My father wore a Rolex Explorer 1016 for 30 years and then gifted it to me over 20 years ago. After that he only wore homage watches and would not buy anything nice for himself. He really wanted a Longines Railroad watch, though. I bought it for him his year and it arrived the day that he went into the hospital for Covid. My brother said that he opened the box and looked at the watch, but never got to try it on. He lost the battle with Covid. I am glad he finally got to get another nice watch, if only for a moment.

    This is really cool to watch; so much more meaningful in conveying the story behind the watches. The best part is how distanced it is from HODINKEE’s “here are my 28 watches on the table after I became a millionaire” series
    This is what really good production values are all about!

    I loved this video. I'm about to turn 34 and this motivated me to set a "by the time I'm 40" goal. Not necessarily a watch or even an object, just a goal I haven't come up with yet. But I love the concept. My late grandfather (who many times felt like my best friend) always wore a Girard-Perregaux Sea Hawk. GPs are going for a lot these days. Would love to honor him one day by wearing one with pride, but with those prices ... like I said, one day. My father has his Sea Hawk on his desk, it hasn't been wound since my grandfather passed in 2012. Keep the awesome videos coming!
