Found during a clear out

Was helping the in laws clear out some things and came across this. I don’t know anything about it and just wanted to see if anyone here recognises it.

Did someone work for Johnson and Johnson?

"Perfect Timing", and the "t" does double duty. Definitely a J&J give away or award.

Nope that’s an interesting idea though.

Just found out that my mother in law’s Dad was a J&J supplier so that’s probably what it was thanks.

Just found out my wife’s grandfather was a J&J supplier so that’s probably it thanks 🙏.

Looks Russian made but I could be wrong very unusual watch has a vintage look

Probably a perfect attendance award from Johnson & Johnson

Found out my wife’s grandfather was a Johnson and Johnson supplier so I think you’re right.

Pretty sure it’s a watch my wife’s grandfather got when he was a supplier to Johnson & Johnson, thanks to @Aurelian, @yani365 and @FlashF1R3 pointing it out so it is definitely vintage, probably 70’s or 80’s.

I worked for a J&J unit earlier in my career. It’s a sales commission attainment award-the cleverly named Watch Club. Can’t remember the specifics on qualifications but this is mine, earned in the mid-90s.

Well that conforms it thanks for that, I’ll let the in-laws know. Love this forum it seems like you can get any watch question answered.

Glad to help. I was floored to see your post. Funny that I was recently wondering if anybody had a similar JNJ watch and if it’d make it on to WC. Love this forum for that!

I thought there was a decent chance WC could help me answer this but I wasn’t expecting to get the answer this quickly. The in-laws wanted me to pass their thanks on to @Powwow, @yani365, @Aurelian and @FlashF1R3 So thank you 🙏.

So Cool!!! But, I made myself dizzy trying to spell it out

Solved, I see. I did spot the Johnson & Johnson logo and figured it was promotional or reward related.

A college friend, tolerant of my watch nerdiness, sent me a pic of a Boeing watch he received for a longevity milestone, back when Boeing was a (positively) storied company.

Not as impressive in the ‘oughts, as smartphones were ascendant. The watch was not rebranded, just engraved on the clasp
