Matthew Price is 46 years old and lives in San Diego, California. Originally from Chicago, he has spent about the last 10 years on the West Coast and works in luxury property management.

Matthew’s interest in getting a Rolex came partly from making a change in what he wore every day.

“I kind of stopped wearing my smart watch.”

As convenient as it was, Matthew found that constantly being connected could also become a distraction.

“I just kind of felt like it also was a nuisance. Like you’re always kind of being taken away from conversations.”

For him, a traditional watch offered something different.

“I feel like having a nice watch maybe could start conversation instead of drawing me away from conversations.”

Matthew was not completely new to watches. He still wears a watch he bought around 2005.

“I’ve had it like 20 plus years.”

At the time, spending around $3,500 on that watch felt like a major purchase.

“That felt like a lot 20 years ago.”

More recently, Matthew had his sights set on Rolex.

“I want a Rolex.”

He spent months researching Rolex watches, watching videos and trying to figure out how to navigate the authorized dealer waitlist system.

“None of that’s worked.”

Then an advertisement for Wolf Watch Club appeared on Facebook.

Matthew decided to give it a try.

“It doesn’t hurt. It was forty dollars an entry for that watch.”

This was Matthew’s first Wolf Watch Club draw.

He initially bought five entries. On the day of the draw, he decided to add three more.

“I bought five on the first round and then the day of the drawing I bought three more.”

Matthew says he simply had a good feeling about it.

“Honestly, I had a good feeling about it.”

What happened next made the timing almost impossible to forget.

On draw day, Matthew was visiting a Rolex authorized dealer in San Diego. After looking at Rolex and Omega watches inside, he walked outside and listened to the Wolf Watch Club livestream.

“I left the showroom, and I sat outside, and I listened to the YouTube draw.”

Then his name was called.

“I was just dumbfounded that they called my name while I’m sitting outside the boutique.”

Matthew had won the Rolex Submariner he had been trying to get.

“I know, that was fantastic.”

After realizing he had won, Matthew walked right back into the Rolex boutique and told his sales representative what had happened.

Her reaction made the moment even better.

“She was like, ‘That’s phenomenal.’”

She told Matthew she had heard about watch raffles before but had never actually met someone who had won one.

“She was like, ‘Let me get you a glass of champagne.’”

Matthew showed her his independent draw certificate, and the boutique invited him to bring the Submariner back once it arrived so they could help him have it fitted.

“I just thought it was really cool. Even though I didn’t buy it from them, they still wanted to celebrate.”

Matthew also had one immediate change to make at the boutique.

“I updated my interest list since I didn’t need the Submariner on that any longer.”

There is already another Rolex on that list.

His next dream watch is a two tone Datejust 41 with a fluted bezel.

And winning on his very first Wolf Watch Club draw does not appear to have ended his interest in entering.

“I think I’m hooked. I think I’m hooked in the watch club now.”

Matthew described the entire experience simply:

“It’s been a really, really positive experience.”

After months of researching Rolexes and trying to get one through the traditional route, Matthew ended up winning his Submariner while sitting outside the very Rolex boutique he had just been shopping in.

Not a bad place to hear your name called.

Don Off is officially a two-time Wolf Watch Club winner.

After previously winning the Rolex GMT-Master II “Batgirl,” Don is back in the winner’s circle, this time with the Omega Seamaster.

For Don, watches have always been about more than the collection itself. They represent memories, milestones, and pieces he hopes to one day pass down to his two sons.

After his first win, Don made one thing clear:

“I’m going to look forward to winning again.”

Now he has.

Congratulations to Don Off on win number two and his new Omega Seamaster.

Steve Thomas is 57 years old and owns a commercial construction company that works throughout the southeastern United States.

His interest in watches goes all the way back to when he was about 15 years old.

“I found a Rolex watch in my dad’s drawer and I thought to myself, ‘That’s going to be mine one day.’”

The watch was a Rolex Day Date.

Unfortunately, that plan never worked out. Years later, while his parents were having work done on their house, the watch was stolen.

“I was let down thinking that that was going to be my watch at some point, but it is what it is.”

Steve’s interest in watches stayed with him. Around 15 to 20 years ago, he started getting more serious about collecting.

“I really got the itch and that was when I bought my first Oris.”

From there, his collection grew, but Steve has never necessarily followed the same path as everyone else.

He has a particular interest in Breitling Top Time cushion case watches from the 1960s and says he owns around six or seven of them.

“I’m kind of an offbeat kind of guy, so I don’t follow what everybody else does.”

Steve eventually came across Wolf Watch Club while looking at different watch competitions online.

What stood out to him was not just the watches, but the interaction around the draws.

“Yours, I like that there was a lot of interaction with the community, and that’s what really kind of drove me.”

For Steve, the Sunday livestreams became part of the experience.

“You’re getting to watch everything and just the fun everybody has poking at each other and that kind of stuff.”

Even though he does not personally know the other people in the chat, he has started recognizing and interacting with familiar names.

“There’s a few people that we kind of bounce back and forth with and I think that’s kind of cool.”

He also enjoys seeing people participate from around the world.

“I like it because you got people from overseas.”

Steve has participated in another watch competition as well, but describes that experience very differently.

“I just put it on automatic and don’t really watch it. It’s just an annual subscription and maybe if I win, I win. It’s not a big deal.”

With Wolf Watch Club, the community and livestream experience kept him engaged.

And after years of collecting watches, his win brought something unexpected to his collection.

“This would be actually the first Rolex I’ve ever had in my collection.”

Steve has not completely decided what he will do with the watch yet.

“I don’t even know if I’m going to keep it. I may give it to my son in law.”

Even after winning, there are still a few watches Steve would love to see at Wolf Watch Club.

“I like the JLC Reversos a lot.”

Another one high on his list is the bronze gold Omega Seamaster 300.

“That bronze gold Seamaster 300, I would love to have that one.”

Steve also hopes Wolf Watch Club continues offering variety beyond Rolex.

“I do think having a variety of watches, not just the Rolex.”

For someone whose watch interest started with his father’s Rolex more than 40 years ago, Steve has now finally added his first Rolex to the story.

Whether it stays in his collection or ends up on his son in law’s wrist is still to be decided.

Carroll Strong is 39 years old and originally from Greensboro, North Carolina.

“I’m from Greensboro, North Carolina, born and raised”

Carroll has served in the U.S. Army for a little over 15 years and works as a medic. He is currently stationed with his family in southwest Germany.

“I’ve been in the U.S. Army for a little over 15 years now, and I’m a medic by trade in the Army.”

Outside of work, Carroll has a few passions.

“I’m a huge golfer.”

He has been playing golf most of his life and also collects vinyl records, particularly records from the early 2000s.

Watches have always been part of Carroll’s life too.

“I would say I’m one of those guys that feels naked if he’s not wearing a watch.”

His own collection has included Seikos and Garmins, but his appreciation for watches also comes from his family.

“My dad growing up has had a two tone Datejust from 1984, which I’ve always loved.”

His brother in law collects watches as well, with a particular interest in Omegas and microbrands. Carroll also has a twin brother, and watches are something they share in common.

“We’re always comparing the watches that we have and everything like that.”

Carroll first found Wolf Watch Club while watching watch content online.

“I think I was watching watch content on Instagram and came across an ad on Instagram or Facebook.”

He visited the website, learned more about how the draws worked, and liked the idea of having a limited number of entries for high value watches.

“I thought it was super cool.”

What gave him confidence to keep entering was seeing previous winners and watching the live draws.

“I saw the pictures of the previous winners with the watches they won.”

After entering his first few draws, he started watching the livestreams as well.

“I watched the YouTube videos. I watched a lot of drawings. I saw people that were interacting with the drawings. I was like, no, it seems legit.”

Carroll also appreciated the Wolf Points system.

“The points are great too.”

For the draw that would eventually change his watch collection, Carroll bought just one ticket and used some of his Wolf Points toward the purchase.

He was not watching live when his name was called. With the draw happening around midnightin Germany, Carroll found out the next morning through his email.

“It was unreal.”

Later that morning, after getting to work, he went back and watched the recording of the draw.

The timing made the win even more surprising.

Just before the draw, Carroll’s sister had been in New York City and picked up a 1990s Rolex Submariner for him.

“Right before the draw this past weekend my sister was in New York City on 47th Street and she found 1991 Rolex Submariner for me.”

Then, just days later, Carroll discovered he had won a Rolex GMT Master II Batgirl with his single entry.

“I told my wife, ‘You’ll never believe this.’”

Her reaction was understandable.

“She was skeptical.”

Carroll plans to keep the Batgirl.

“I am planning to keep it and wear it proudly.”

And he has no plans to stop following watches or entering draws. One watch in particular remains high on his list.

“I would really like to, if there’s another draw for Omega Speedmaster Pro.”

For Carroll, the live experience remains one of the things that makes Wolf Watch Club enjoyable.

“The YouTube watch draws are great because you can watch it real time and it builds anticipation. It’s exciting.”

One ticket, some Wolf Points, and a morning email in Germany later, Carroll had added a Rolex GMT Master II Batgirl to his collection.

Dylan Doyle lives outside San Antonio, Texas. He is married, has two kids, and works as an instrumentation and electrical construction project manager.

Outside of work, Dylan keeps things simple.

“Hunt, fish, shoot.”

He also spends plenty of time with his family.

“I do cheerleading once a week with my daughter.”

And on the day we spoke with him, he was getting ready for his father in law’s birthday.

“It’s barbecue and family time. That’s what I spent most of today doing.”

Dylan had been into watches for years, but says he started getting more serious about collecting around 2018 or 2019.

“My wife had got me a Citizen EcoDrive dress watch for Christmas one year and sparked an interest.”

From there, the collection started growing.

“I went down the Seiko rabbit hole.”

Then came Tudor, Omega, and eventually Rolex.

Dylan had already been looking for his next watch and knew what he wanted.

“A Rolex Explorer 36 is probably the first choice and second choice would be a 40 millimeter Submariner.”

While researching where to get one, he came across Wolf Watch Club.

“A few months ago I started buying a few raffles and then y’all came out with the Rolex Explorer 36, exact one that I was kind of pursuing.”

For Dylan, the numbers mattered too.

“I’ve played blackjack back and forth for years. So I like to stick to statistics and ratios.”

His goal was straightforward.

“My goal was to stay below 1 in 20 odds.”

As more tickets were purchased, Dylan added more entries.

“By the time I think it was sitting down, I think I was 1 in 16 chances of winning.”

When draw day arrived, Dylan and his wife were out together at a new restaurant. They had managed to get a babysitter and had the live draw playing while they sat at the bar.

“We were sitting at the bar having a few cocktails, and kind of, it was background noise, glancing over at it.”

Then his wife heard his name.

“My wife was like, ‘Hey, they just said your name.’”

Dylan did not believe her at first.

“I was like, ‘I don’t think they did.’”

But she had heard it correctly.

“She was like, ‘Yeah, they said your name. You just won a Rolex.’”

A waiter walked over at exactly the wrong moment, trying to take their order.

Dylan’s response was simple.

“Hey, we’re going to eat in a minute. I just won a Rolex so you can come back.”

The celebration got a little bigger after that.

“Let’s plan on having one or two cocktails. I think we had three or four.”

For Dylan, one of the things he appreciated most was being able to watch the draw happen live.

“I prefer y’alls when you do a video and it’s interactive.”

He also liked being able to follow everything on Instagram.

“I was happy with it being, it’s more open and more personalized.”

And even after winning the exact Rolex he had been looking for, Dylan says he plans to keep entering.

“I will continue to participate. You never know.”

There is still one watch left near the top of his list.

“The second one was a no date Rolex Submariner Black.”

For now, though, the first one on that list is already his.

The Rolex Explorer 36.

Matthew Moran grew up in Napa Valley and now lives in Benicia, California with his wife and two kids.

He works in the automotive industry as a General Manager for one of the largest family owned body shop chains in the US.

Outside of work, family comes first.

“I do love to travel but we are waiting for the kids to be a little older before we travel more, they are currently 7 and 3 years old.”

Matthew had always liked watches, but for a long time he kept things relatively simple.

“I always liked watches but nothing more than a couple hundred dollars units as I worked with cars and they would tend to break.”

That changed after he reached a major milestone at work.

“As a 5 year gift for being a GM they buy you a luxury watch.”

Matthew chose a 2018 Rolex Deepsea.

“I went with a 2018 Rolex Deepsea which I loved.”

Later, a few family emergencies meant he had to sell the watch.

“We had a few emergencies that required me to sell that unit off to help with.”

Since then, Matthew had been working his way back toward another Rolex.

“I have been working my way back to another unit.”

At the top of his list were two GMTs.

“The unit I desire the most would be the Batgirl or Bruce Wayne units.”

Matthew first came across another company offering something similar to Wolf Watch Club, but continued researching before deciding where he felt comfortable entering.

“As I did more research I found WWC and got deeper into it.”

What stood out most to him was being able to see the people behind the company and watch the draws happen live.

“I decided to give WWC the chance as you do live feeds and can be seen, not a no face team or company which is important to me.”

Matthew had been entering draws for months before his name was finally called.

“I was in complete shock when my name was announced.”

Like many players who have been entering for a while, there were moments when he wondered whether his turn would ever come.

“I have been playing for months and honestly felt like it may never happen.”

Then it did.

And for Matthew, winning the Rolex Submariner means more than simply adding another watch to his collection.

“I could not be happier to restart my watch journey with this Submariner.”

After having to let go of his Deepsea years earlier, Matthew now has a Rolex back on his wrist and a new chapter in his collection underway.

For Sander, watches have been a fascination for almost as long as he can remember.

Based in the Netherlands, Sander lives with his wife and two young daughters and works in software. Outside of work, he enjoys running, playing tennis, and, as he puts it, “diving a bit deeper into the world of watches.”

That interest started early.

“When I was young, I was triggered by watches, and I got a watch from my dad when I was 12.”

He still owns it today.

From there, the interest only grew. Sander started reading watch books and magazines and became active on local watch forums, following new releases and learning more about the industry.

About two years ago, he took another step in the journey and bought his first major luxury watch, a Rolex Datejust.

But for Sander, acquiring the watch was almost as memorable as owning it.

“The journey is as fun as just owning one.”

He loves that a watch can bring all of those memories back every time it goes on the wrist.

“Every time when you start wearing it, it recollects you on the whole journey which also comes as part of the watch.”

Sander eventually came across Wolf Watch Club while exploring the watch world online.

At first, he was cautious.

He had seen other watch competition platforms before, but had never felt comfortable enough to enter. What made WWC different was seeing winners from different countries, including people from the Netherlands.

“I saw that some of the winners are coming from the Netherlands,” he explained. “That made me just, every now and then, checking in, buying a couple of tickets and seeing what happens.”

He did his homework too.

Sander looked into the independent random draw process and even searched previous Dutch winners on LinkedIn to make sure they were real people.

“I started to believe that this might be interesting to at least give it a try.”

He entered without expecting much.

“Of course, not expecting to win anything, but then it’s a great surprise to see if you can actually win one as well.”

And he kept coming back.

For Sander, it was simple.

“It’s like the same as playing the lottery. You feel like if you keep playing, then you just increase the chances.”

It also helped that many of the watches being offered were exactly the kind of pieces he already loved.

“That makes you believe that maybe one time you can make it.”

Then came the Omega Speedmaster Hesalite.

Sander had always liked Omega, although he admitted the Speedmaster was not necessarily at the very top of his wish list compared with something like a Daytona.

Still, when he logged in near the end of the draw, he noticed there were only around 10 or 11 tickets remaining.

So he made a last minute decision.

“Okay, just going to buy the last 11. You never know what happens.”

One of those tickets was the winner.

The purchase had been made only around 50 minutes to an hour before the draw closed.

Sander was on holiday at the time and did not watch the draw live.

Instead, he went to sleep without expecting anything.

Then, sometime around two in the morning, he woke up and decided to check the result.

“I saw my name, so that’s a great experience.”

After months of checking in, entering draws, and hoping that maybe one day his name would appear, it finally did.

And fittingly for someone who believes the journey is part of what makes a watch special, his Speedmaster already has a story attached to it.

A lifelong fascination with watches.

A last minute decision.

The final 11 tickets.

And one of them happened to be the winner.

For Ramon Bosch Bosch, watches have always been about more than what is on the wrist. They mark important moments, carry memories, and, one day, can be passed down to the next generation.

Based in Barcelona, Ramon is 40 years old, an industrial engineer working as a consultant in the pharmaceutical industry, a frequent traveller, a self described food lover, and a lifelong watch enthusiast.

“I really like watches as well, since I was a child,” Ramon told us. “You know, when you are a child you have the typical Swatch and Casio and so on.”

His first “proper” watch came when he was 18, a TAG Heuer Formula 1 given to him as a present. Years later, when he got married, his wife gave him an IWC Pilot.

But as Ramon got older, watches started to take on an even deeper meaning.

“For my first child, a few years ago, my mother gave me a Datejust,” he explained. The idea was that one day, he would have something meaningful to pass down to his son. “This is why I was looking out for a second watch for the second child.”

And Ramon already knew exactly which watch he wanted.

The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona “Panda.”

Ramon had been trying to purchase one through the traditional route for about a year, but knew how difficult the watch was to obtain.

“I was looking for this one specifically. This one I really liked.”

Then, almost by chance, he came across Wolf Watch Club on Instagram.

Like many people discovering WWC for the first time, Ramon did some homework before entering.

“I was checking also comments on Instagram,” he said. After looking through the community and seeing the experiences of other players, he decided to give it a shot.

The timing could not have been better. The Daytona Panda he had been searching for was the watch up for grabs that week.

“Everything just connected.”

Ramon entered with just three tickets.

It was not only his first Wolf Watch Club draw. It was the first watch competition he had ever entered.

Then came an early morning in Barcelona that he will probably remember for a very long time.

Ramon was feeding his three month old son while going through his emails at around five or six in the morning when he saw the message from WWC.

Huge congratulations. You won.

“I said, ‘I can’t believe it.’”

His reaction?

He went back to sleep.

“When I woke up, I said, ‘Okay, let’s read it again because I don’t know.’”

Once it finally began to sink in, the reality was pretty incredible. Three tickets. His first draw. And the exact watch he had been searching for.

“I was like, wow. So, yeah, kind of amazing. I’m very happy, very happy.”

His friends soon started seeing the winner announcement too.

“They were like, ‘Did you win that watch?’ I said, ‘It seems so.’”

For Ramon, there is something beautifully fitting about the way it all happened. The Daytona was meant to celebrate his 40th birthday, but it can now represent something even bigger: the arrival of his second child and another watch that may eventually become part of the family.

Ramon sees watches as objects that can live far beyond the person who first wears them. His wife received her father’s first Rolex when she turned 30, a tradition Ramon particularly appreciates.

“This kind of watches persist during the years, so I think it’s a very good gift.”

Now, he has another piece to add to that story.

A Rolex Daytona Panda.

Three tickets.

His first ever draw.

Or, as Ramon put it himself:

“The lucky of the first time.”

Congratulations, Ramon. Welcome to the Wolf Watch Club winners circle, and congratulations on becoming our first winner from Spain.

For Robert Furr, winning the Rolex Oyster Perpetual 41 Winner’s Choice draw was more than a lucky Sunday. It was the payoff to nearly a full year of playing with Wolf Watch Club.

Robert joined WWC in July of last year.

Exactly 364 days later, he won.

Based in Florida, Robert is in his early 60s and works as the CFO of an automotive dealership group in West Palm Beach. He has spent most of his career in the auto industry and, outside of work, is a big sports fan.

“I follow almost all sports,” Robert told us. “My favorite is probably college football, then NFL.”

He is also in the middle of a transition from Atlanta, Georgia, to Florida, making the timing of the win another memorable moment in an already busy year.

But Robert’s introduction to Wolf Watch Club actually came through someone he knew.

A former co-worker, Sean Gebhardt, had previously won with WWC.

“He actually won the Teddy,” Robert told us.

Seeing someone he personally knew win made the whole thing much more tangible.

“This is real. I can actually win.”

Robert kept playing.

Week after week. Draw after draw.

Then, almost one year after joining, his turn finally came.

And there was one person who apparently knew it before he did.

“My wife, she knew I was going to win.”

She was watching the live draw with him, something she had never done before.

“That’s the first time she’s ever actually watched the drawing.”

Robert joked that she may have been the good luck charm he needed.

“I got a lot of good luck from her.”

Then his name was called.

“I couldn’t believe when they called my name.”

This was not just any Rolex draw either. Robert had won the Rolex Oyster Perpetual 41 Winner’s Choice, meaning the final decision was his.

With several dial options available, Robert eventually chose the Pistachio.

“It was a little bit of a hard decision, but the Pistachio does stand out to me.”

After nearly a year of entering draws, Robert’s persistence had finally paid off.

His story is also a reminder that every winner gets there differently. Some win on their first try. Others keep showing up until their number finally comes up.

For Robert, it happened 364 days after he first joined Wolf Watch Club.

And now, after watching someone he knew win before him, he has a story of his own to tell.

A Rolex Oyster Perpetual 41.

Pistachio dial.

Winner’s Choice.

Peter Sorbo

For Peter Sorbo, winning the Rolex Submariner No-Date could not have worked out much better.

A firefighter and devoted family man, Peter had already been thinking about buying himself a Rolex when he retires in the next few years.

“I’m a firefighter, and I’m probably retiring in the next couple years. I was going to buy myself a Rolex as a retirement gift.”

Instead, on just his third draw with Wolf Watch Club, he won one.

Peter entered Wolf Watch Club’s Double Submariner Draw after seeing that two watches were being awarded. He purchased three tickets, figuring the two-winner format gave him a little better chance.

When the first-place winner selected the Submariner Date, it left Peter with exactly the watch he had hoped for.

“I love the No-Date, so it totally worked out.”

Outside of work, Peter describes himself simply as a family man. His daughters keep the family busy with softball and volleyball, and much of his time revolves around supporting them and spending time together.

“Everything’s about my family at the end of the day.”

Peter also takes a lot of pride in his career as a firefighter and the people he works alongside.

“I just try to help people as much as I can. The guys I work with are amazing. I feel very blessed in my life. I never say lucky, I always say blessed.”

When he does have some downtime, Peter enjoys taking care of his home, yard and pool. Watches have also gradually become a hobby. His first watch was a Seiko GMT that he purchased on eBay for around $300, and from there he began spending more time researching different watches and watching content online.

Rolex, however, had always stood out to him.

“I’ve always loved the Rolex, not even for the status. It’s just such a nice-looking watch. For me, that Submariner is the watch.”

Part of what Peter loves about the Submariner is its versatility.

“I feel like you could wear that with a pair of shorts at a barbecue, or you could wear it to a wedding in a suit. It’s just such a versatile timepiece.”

Peter first came across Wolf Watch Club through social media and decided to do some research before entering. After looking through the website, reviews and previous winners, he felt comfortable giving it a shot.

He entered selectively, generally waiting for watches that genuinely appealed to him. When the Double Submariner Draw appeared, it was an easy decision.

Peter was not watching the draw live when his name was selected. He first saw the winner email and then immediately went to YouTube to watch the recording.

“When he said my name, I was like, ‘Oh my God.’”

His wife had initially been skeptical, so Peter showed her the live draw. His daughters were just as shocked when they realized he had actually won.

For Peter, the experience also highlighted what attracted him to the draws in the first place.

“It’s a wonderful way to get a luxury watch. Not everybody can shell out fifteen or eighteen thousand dollars for the watch of their dreams. You buy a couple tickets and you never know at the end of the day.”

In Peter’s case, throwing his hat in the ring resulted in the exact Rolex he had been planning to buy himself years down the road.

“Before the watch raffle, owning a luxury timepiece felt like a distant dream. As a firefighter, I’ve spent my career serving my community, and I always told myself that one day—when I retired—I would celebrate that chapter by buying my first luxury watch.

I never imagined that day would come this way.

When I found out I had won the raffle, I was completely speechless. What I had planned as a retirement gift to myself became a reality years earlier than expected. It’s more than just a watch—it’s a reminder that sometimes life has incredible surprises in store.

This timepiece will always represent hard work, dedication, and a little bit of unexpected luck.

I’m incredibly grateful for this opportunity and can’t thank everyone involved enough for making a lifelong dream come true. Every time I look at my wrist, I’ll remember this unforgettable moment!”

For Jessica Bakis, winning the black Santos de Cartier was an unforgettable surprise.

Jessica joined Wolf Watch Club only a few weeks after her husband began entering the draws. On just her third draw, with two tickets, she became the winner of a watch that perfectly matched her growing passion for timepieces.

Jessica is 48 years old, a mother, and has been married for 25 years. She works as a hair colorist and spends much of her time focused on her career and family.

“Lately, I feel like all I do is work,” she said. “I have three little dogs that I love spending time with, and I love to cook.”

She also joked about another favourite pastime.

“If shopping were an Olympic sport, I think I’d medal in it.”

Jessica has long appreciated luxury goods and is an avid handbag collector, but her interest in watches only began developing more recently.

“I always appreciated watches and timepieces. My husband really loves them, and they’re beautiful. I support him purchasing them because they appreciate in value, they’re collectors’ items, and they’re like an investment.”

For her day-to-day life as a hair colorist, Jessica normally relies on her Apple Watch. Her perspective on traditional watches began to change when her husband bought her a Cartier Tank.

“This year, I fell in love with the Cartier Tank, and my husband bought it for me. I think that broke the ice and led to me falling in love with timepieces.”

She soon found herself looking at watches online and exploring styles beyond the smaller women’s pieces she had previously worn.

“Instead of my husband just looking at men’s watches, I started looking at women’s Rolexes and women’s watches. But I love men’s watches. I love the way they look on a woman’s wrist.”

Although Jessica enjoys feminine fashion, she loves the contrast created by a larger, sportier watch.

“I wear a lot of dresses and a lot of makeup, but I think a men’s watch gives almost a masculine edge. I just love that style.”

After watching her husband enter Wolf Watch Club draws, Jessica decided it was time to try for herself.

“I told him, ‘I’m going to buy raffle tickets. I want to do it. I want one of these watches.”

Her husband laughed and told her to go for it.

“I said, ‘I’m going to do it. Why can’t I have a watch?’”

On the night of the draw, Jessica was surrounded by her family. Her parents were visiting, and her daughter and her daughter’s boyfriend were also home. Everyone was sitting outside together while Jessica’s husband watched the live draw on his phone.

“We were sitting outside on the deck at the table, and my husband was watching it live on his phone.”

Jessica was sitting beside him when he suddenly heard her name.

“He said, ‘They called your name.’ I was like, ‘What?’ He said, ‘Jessica, you won. They called your name.’”

Jessica immediately reached for her own phone to bring up the live stream.

“I was like, ‘Oh my gosh.’ It was crazy. We were so surprised.”

The win quickly created some playful competition between Jessica and her husband.

“My husband said, ‘I don’t think lightning will strike twice, so maybe next week it’s my turn.’”

Jessica was not ready to concede the next win so easily.

“I said, ‘Well, I don’t know about that, because I won another ticket.’”

After receiving the Santos de Cartier, Jessica was thrilled by how it looked in person.

“I picked the watch up yesterday, and it’s absolutely gorgeous. It’s breathtaking.”

The bracelet was slightly too large for her small wrist, so she planned to take it to a jeweller to have it professionally fitted.

“I don’t want to take the links out of the watch myself, so I’m going to bring it to a jeweller to have it sized.”

Her husband briefly thought Jessica might give the watch to him, but the Santos was exactly the type of larger watch she had begun to love.

“My husband thought I was going to give it to him.”

That was not going to happen.

“It’s a men’s watch, and I love that style. I have a dainty, pretty watch at home, the small Cartier Tank, and I absolutely love it. But that’s a dainty women’s watch.”

The black Santos offered something entirely different: the bold, larger look Jessica had been admiring on women’s wrists.

For Jessica, the win was more than an exciting moment. It marked the beginning of a new chapter in her growing appreciation for watches.

“It was such a wonderful surprise. It’s a beautiful watch, and I feel so lucky.”

“I’m so thankful to have had that opportunity.”

From entering alongside her husband to hearing her name called while surrounded by family, Jessica’s third Wolf Watch Club draw became a moment none of them will forget.

For Dr. Michael Hayoun, winning an Omega Seamaster Diver 300M was the perfect addition to his growing watch collection. It was an especially exciting win for a longtime James Bond fan.

“I’m a pretty big James Bond fan, and the Seamaster is clearly the James Bond watch. That was one of the main reasons I wanted it .”

Originally from New Jersey, Dr. Hayoun is an emergency physician and medical toxicologist. He spends much of his time working in the emergency room, treating everything from heart attacks and strokes to chest pain and other medical emergencies.

He also specializes in managing poisonings, overdoses, medication interactions, and other toxicology cases.

Outside of medicine, Dr. Hayoun enjoys travelling, cooking, taking classes, and exploring new experiences. A recent trip to Japan played an important role in developing his interest in watches.

“I was going to Japan and ended up buying a Grand Seiko while I was there. When you start looking for watch content on social media, you naturally begin seeing even more of it.”

While researching watches and learning more about the hobby, he came across Wolf Watch Club.

“I looked into it, watched one of the YouTube live draws, and thought, ‘Okay, let me give it a try.’”

Before entering, Dr. Hayoun took the time to learn more about the process and watch previous draws.

“It seemed like a very transparent process, which I appreciated.”

After entering the draws for several weeks, Dr. Hayoun joined the live stream on draw night. When his name was announced, it took a moment for the news to register.

“I heard my name and thought, ‘Wait, what? I’m here! I’m here!’”

The excitement was immediate. Not only had he won a watch closely connected to one of his favourite film franchises, but it was also a piece that perfectly matched his personal taste.

“I like a nice watch that isn’t too gaudy. It’s something that people who know watches will recognize, but it isn’t just about showing off.”

Dr. Hayoun’s interest in watches began with a custom piece created by an Australian watchmaker. The watch featured a design inspired by his career, including the word “Toxicology” and a skull logo he helped create.

“That was my first custom watch. It says ‘Toxicology’ on it, has a skull, and uses the colours and logo I wanted.”

His Grand Seiko followed, and that was when his appreciation for watches truly began to grow.

“That’s kind of how the bug got me. I thought, ‘This is a really nice watch.’”

Now, the Omega Seamaster Diver 300M joins his collection as his biggest watch win yet.

For a doctor who spends long hours helping others through emergencies, the win offered an unforgettable moment of excitement before another busy stretch of shifts.

“I work a lot. I had a shift starting shortly after our call, and then I was working five nights in a row.”

From discovering Wolf Watch Club through his growing interest in watches to hearing his name announced live, Dr. Hayoun’s experience came together in a way he never expected.

For a James Bond fan, it is hard to imagine a more fitting watch to win than the Omega Seamaster.

 

Winning a Rolex once is unforgettable. For Allen Schwabe, the unbelievable happened twice.

Allen was watching the live draw when his name was called as the winner of the Rolex GMT-Master II “Bruce Wayne.” The moment felt so surreal that he briefly wondered whether he had somehow opened the recording of his previous victory.

“I thought, did I somehow get the past one?” Allen recalled. “It just seemed so surreal.”

It was not a replay. Allen had won the Rolex “Bruce Wayne” for a second time.

The story began after his first win, when Allen received a call from a major watch dealer who had been searching for the model. The dealer offered him two watches in exchange: a 41 mm two-tone Rolex with an ivory dial and a Rolex Deepsea.

They were two watches Allen had always wanted, and the offer represented considerably more value than the “Bruce Wayne.” Allen accepted the trade and was thrilled with both watches.

However, after the trade was complete, he began to think about what he had given up.

The first “Bruce Wayne” was more than a valuable timepiece. It was a watch he had won, with a personal story that could one day be passed down to his family.

“I was sitting there thinking, what a story to give my kids,” Allen said.

Although Allen loved the watches he received in the trade, he regretted losing the sentimental connection attached to his original win. That was why he decided to enter another draw for the same watch.

Then, incredibly, his name was called again.

Allen watched the result happen live, but an issue with his YouTube account prevented him from commenting. As he tried to make sense of what he was seeing, he realized that he had truly won the same Rolex for a second time.

“I’m beyond the moon,” he said. “I’m so excited. I can’t believe that I got a second one.”

His family was just as excited. Allen has three kids, ages 44, 41 and 30, and they gave him a clear message after hearing the news.

“You keep this one, Dad.”

For Allen, the Rolex GMT-Master II “Bruce Wayne” is a watch that works for almost any occasion.

“If you’re a stylish guy, you’ll like it. If you’re a casual guy, you’ll like it,” he said. “It just goes with everything.”

Allen’s story is an extraordinary reminder that winning once does not mean it cannot happen again. After trading his first “Bruce Wayne” for two watches he had always wanted, he was given another chance to own the watch and preserve the story connected to it.

This time, the Rolex “Bruce Wayne” returns to Allen with an even more remarkable history: not one win, but two.

For David McCarthy, winning the Rolex Submariner No-Date was the realization of a long-held goal.

David lives in Ballincollig, a town just outside Cork City, Ireland. Although the area is now home to around 20,000 people, he remembers growing up in what locals called “The Village,” when the population was closer to 1,000.

After spending many years living in different parts of Ireland, David eventually returned to his hometown around 20 years ago.

Professionally, David has spent more than 30 years working in retail and is currently a Store Manager for a major food retailer, which he describes as the Irish and UK equivalent of Walmart.

Outside of work, David has a wide range of interests. He is an avid reader, particularly when it comes to history and astronomy, as well as science fiction and fantasy. He also enjoys walking and travelling abroad whenever the opportunity arises.

His interest in luxury watches only began developing a few years ago.

“I never had a great interest in luxury or upmarket watches until a few years back, when I started to see them as both a great accessory and potentially a worthy long-term investment.”

That growing interest eventually led David to begin selectively entering competitions for watches and gold bullion, two things he appreciates as tangible assets to own.

Along the way, he has already had some impressive luck, winning several Breitling pieces as well as a TAG Heuer. But there were still two names at the top of his wish list.

“I’ve always really wanted to own a Rolex or a Patek Philippe.”

David first discovered Wolf Watch Club through either Instagram or Facebook. Before entering, he took the time to look into the club and the experiences of previous winners.

“Your bona fides appeared impeccable, with credible testimonials from multiple happy winners across the globe.”

That research gave him the confidence to enter, and on his fourth draw with Wolf Watch Club, David’s name was selected as the winner of the Rolex Submariner No-Date.

The win also made David Wolf Watch Club’s first winner from Ireland.

For someone who had long hoped to add a Rolex to his collection, the Submariner No-Date made the moment particularly special.

“So again, really delighted and thanks.”
