I have a few such watches:
- The Zenith Port Royal V Elite was my parents' gift for my 30th birthday, and the research to chose this model is what sent me in the rabbit hole of watch collecting
- The Datejust 1601's serial number places it within weeks of my birthday in January 1970, and I find it very cool to have a watch that's almost exactly my age
- The Minerva Pythagore II, I almost bought in 1998, but let it pass, which proved to be an enduring regret through the years and decades. Luckily, I found this nice example a couple of years ago, and funnily enough, upon contacting the seller, I realised it was William Massena selling it. I had met with William many years ago in New York, and we had a great dinner together. So it made this Minerva extra special
