I had made a post asking if people have dead or unfixable watches lying around, that I could use to work on movements.

The ones that would’ve or already have been thrown in the garbage could be useful for me and I can learn about fixing different parts on a watch

One guy reached out and sent me a ZF Seamaster 300 and, I can’t be thankful enough for that dude I hope the best for him, when receiving the package from the post office I found out the package had been torn open and it was empty

Now I know I can’t really file for insurance since you all know why dealing with reps and all

I’m just so bummed I was waiting for it and was so excited about it and someone just stole it

My heart literally sank like when you’re tracking and tracking and you find out this happened

This sucks

If anyone has some dead watches hit me up

Hershel: “This belonged to my grandfather. He gave it to me, and now I’m giving it to you.”

hands Glenn a plastic Royal Pop Swatch

“This watch kept time through war, hardship, and three generations of men pretending quartz was acceptable.”

Glenn, trying not to cry:
“Thank you.”

Hershel:
“Don’t thank me. Thank your mother. She waited outside the Swatch store at 6am for this limited-edition shitter.”

A family heirloom.
Made of plastic.
Water resistant to a sad sneeze.
Truly, civilisation was worth saving.
