Fantastic watch, fantastic experience

I’ve had my eye on the gold bezel Dark Bayou for a while and was so impressed once I received it. It looks even better in person. I love the combo of the gold bezel with the strap. It’s hard to believe the value that you get with these watches. Yet another flawless customer experience as well. The best way I can summarize my whole experience with Monterey after 2 purchases by saying It feels good to buy cool things from great people. Thanks again, Tim. Looking forward to the next one!

Generational Timepiece

Tim I really appreciate what Monterey Watch Co. Is doing. My son was ecstatic to recieve his BT with the Americana Bezel Insert for his 8TH Bday.
Monterey is generational now...and that's pretty bad ass. Love the vibe and love the watches! I hope he passes it on to his son.

On my wrist daily!

I bought the Dark Bayou EM for myself….and love it. So I bought a Blackstream F for my oldest son. Based on the materials, quality, style, value (the “Big 4” for under $275!!!) and function of these watches…I’ll buy one for each of my three sons when they are old enough to stop losing stuff! They will be my go-to for gifts in the future as well.
