Heirloom Seiko

I recently brought my late grandpa Cedric Bernardez’s Seiko Kinetic to the shop for some thick custom leather straps. I wasn’t disappointed. I selected rich brown artisanal straps with wax thread stitching to honor the man who taught me to appreciate the finer things in life. Among those are the following:

  1. Write down your feelings and analyze them later. And write your name on everything your write, hence this eponymous blog.

  2. Drink alcohol with refinement and never with intense emotions.

  3. Beer should be appreciated anytime, just like coffee.

  4. Jewelry is a form of self-care. Never be afraid to indulge in bling for oneself.

  5. life is too short.

So here I am, wearing his watch and living his legacies. This is Samantha Gail Bernardez Lucas, bearer of my late grandpa’s name and passions in life. I will never take this life for granted.

Life is too short to be half-lived.
