For Jason Lister, better known as Watch4Jay, watch collecting is a journey of shared passions and personal connections. From his home in Montreal, Canada, Jay’s love for Timex and timeless music has not only shaped his collection but also his friendships. ‘Watches are more than objects—they’re stories we wear,’ he shares. With each new piece, he continues to celebrate the intersection of nostalgia, craftsmanship, and the bonds formed through the watch community.

For Blake, watch collecting is about more than just timepieces—it’s about connection, history, and love. Whether it’s the Bulova Fly Me to the Moon he shares with his daughter, Finley, or a 1918 Elgin trench watch that echoes the sacrifices of World War I soldiers, each piece in his collection tells a deeply personal story. ‘I realized I didn’t need expensive watches to feel fulfilled,’ Blake reflects. ‘The joy comes from the meaning behind them.’
