Need to share
Hi fellow Crunchers,
I need to give a shout out to a kind act that was bestowed on me through this site. A fellow cruncher @TonyXXX saw this Timex fan and reached out to me and asked if I would like a Timex he has. He said he would like it to go to someone who would appreciate it. I offered to pay for shipping and he insisted not to worry and he will be more than glad to send it because he wants it to go to someone who would appreciate it. He sent it from Australia to New York (wow)!!
The funny thing is I always loved this model but never got around to get it. He also sent the strap he thought would look good with it.
Thank you again Tony, this watch and strap it will be forever known as the Kind Act Watch! I really do appreciate it. Here it is in all it's Timex Welton Glory.
Huge Timex Fan with my very own Timex Museum. Reside in Staten Island New York (born and raised). I love New York City, simple watches , simple life and anything with Peanuts characters. I own well ov...

I almost bought one of those! Such a cool trench watch vibe.
While we’re on the subject, I want to acknowledge @HotWatchChick69 for doing the same thing with me a few months ago. He sent me this Heimdallr (and a literal quart bag of straps) and didn’t ask for one cent in return. 🤘
Have a piece coming from Tony as well!! Stand up guy!!!

Thank you Greg, but I'll have to decline, I'm sure there are others more deserving than myself 🙏🏻

@HotWatchChick69 outward persona is all just a ruse mate, he's a big softy at heart really, you just have to look at his puppies to know that 💯

I'm actually going back to the dealer where I found TimexBadger's watch to see if they have any left. If they do I was going to see how many they have and try and grab them all. I'll put up a post if I do and your more than welcome to grab one, but as I told TimexBadger, I can't promise anything, they may very well all be gone.
There's 2 different variants, so it will either be both or one of the two. See pictures.
That watch looks great on you mate, especially with that red strap, It makes the watch really stand out 💯 and you were definitely a worthy recipient

Hopefully your's isn't far away Mike, once they leave Australia I don't seem to get any further updates as to it's location. But the last notification I received was on the 23rd when it left Australia.
Well, this is just amazing. 🥰👌 Congrats @TimexBadger and @TonyXXX
@TonyXXX 🤝Much respect. A human being we should aspire to be

As much as I’m flattered by your kind words, I just like to make people happy. It was just a small and simple jesture to show that no matter where you are you can still share what little you have to make someone else smile.

I agree, I’ve met some awsome people so far here, yourself included. I was actually thinking of you the other day and not in a bad way either 🤣, while I was going through my collection and thought if anyone would appreciate my Seiko 5 it would be you. It might find its way to your collection one day 👍
Your still my nemesis though with that Seiko 5. That Baltic mustn’t be that far away now and then we’ll see you sweat 😂
@TonyXXX Hats off to you, mate!

By the end of this stupid challenge I'll either be obsessed with Seiko 5s or sick to death of the damn sight of them. 😂 Also, I'm going to complain to @Aurelian if anyone sends me a watch to deliberately sabotage my efforts!
I have a cunning plan for when the Baltic arrives.

I won’t even bother to ask what your plan is, I’m sure it’s all hush hush, need to know basis’.
I doubt though that you will ever get sick of that Seiko 5, it’s a beautiful little watch, sure it will probably get a well deserved rest, but I don’t think you’ll ever get sic of it.
Only time will tell my friend 😉
Very thoughtful and gracious of you @TonyXXX ! If karma exists, hopefully the watch gods repay you 10 fold. 👏
Very happy for you. Go N.Y!
