Watching the Watch Makers

Happy Friday! Now that the September is over, along with the hectic summer, I am hopeful to get back to the blogs as well as the next novel already in progress (going back to my first novel to revisit characters). Many of my friends, family, and followers know I learned to repair watches during the pandemic. I fix watches for those in need of such assistance. I also buy lots of watches off eBay and give those renewed watches away to my students, many of whom never owned a watch. My boss bought me a display rake for the office.

It is funny and a little scary to watch students figure out how how to use the watches. They are so use to looking at their cell phones that using a mechanical watch just blows their mind! In any event, for those with old watches, Timex started a new program: Rewound (see https://rewound.timex.com/ for details).

Send Timex your old watches and you can get a coupon with which to buy a new watch. The watches you send in do not have to be Timex watches. Through Timex's Rewound program, old watches will get a new life while parts unused will get recycled. For those longing for a classic watch, check out the restored watches that Timex now sells: https://rewound.timex.com/collections/shop-all

Best wishes to all for a nice and fun weekend!
