I don’t know. I walk around feeling confused and cynical most days, but these days it’s different. It feels trivial, even disrespectful, to spend time writing about watches right now. But, this is a watch publication and newsletter, and my sense is that most readers visit this site to escape from the realities of day-to-day life (indeed, it’s no coincidence I chose a word with “escape” in it for the name of this site). However, I’d challenge you not to escape during this time. This moment needs you — it needs all of us. If you’re into watches, chances are you have the privilege to be able to speak up and act. So do it, for those who don’t have that same privilege. If you’re able, donate time and money to an organization advancing the Black Lives Matter cause. But know that’s the beginning, not the end.
