Bro. Marc gave me a head-up last week, saying that I had a package inbound. Part of his late father's estate, "mainly ultra cheap fashion pieces with a couple of surprises thrown in". Still, I wasn't prepared for a 13 x 11 Priority Mail box with about 4 kilograms of watches inside! 
I got to say, "mainly ultra cheap fashion pieces" or no, several that I'm sure Marc counts in that class definitely appeal to me.
Right now I'm wearing the Croton CX2, for instance (wonder of wonders the leather strap fits me!), and it's got a sort of Torgoen look that I've always admired. Plus, it's the first watch I've ever seen with a compass actually embedded in the dial!
Sure, I looked for a stock photo, and found it:
What really amazed me is where I found it - the TimeZone Sales Corner!
A Genuine TZ Watch? I have now officially Arrived as a Discerning Collector!
But, don't worry me
Brothers, I won't go all 
on ye. 
A proper post will have to wait for the weekend, I fear, but rest assured it'll happen.
Though I never knew your father, Marc, I feel certain that he was a Fine Man, to have produced a son like yourself. "The acorn doesn't fall far from the tree", the Irish say, and I sincerely believe it.
Thank you from the bottom of me heart Bro. Marc, and I do hope spreading these watches around has helped you find solace and closure after the passing of your father. It's perhaps the most poignant and moving gesture I've ever witnessed.
Warmest regards,
-Ricky
P.s. - and the "surprises"? Don't get me started!
Live long and prosper.
