Be a Peach: Help End Gynecologic Cancers - The Results

Post by MoT »

THANK YOU to the 40 wonderful people who joined together to raise an incredible $3,615 to support the Foundation for Women's Cancer! I am absolutely speechless, and each and every one of you has the gratitude and thanks of @Mrs.MoT and myself. Keep an eye on your mailboxes. In the coming weeks, all of you who donated will be receiving a personal thanks from us.

I also have to extend thanks to the retailers who donated gifts for this campaign: Formex Watches, Martu Leather, Trifecta Watches. and Time Machine Plus. I encourage everyone reading this to shop with these friends of MoT's.

Without further ado, let's give away the gifts! Each donator was assigned numbers according to how many chances they received, and then all numbers were randomized. The list of names and numbers was then input onto a random selection wheel at Wheel of Names and spun.

First up is my personal Seiko Monster SRPE27 and a $100 Martu Leather gift card.


Congratulations @The Sultan of SoWhat!

The next gift is a Formex canvas/leather watch roll and their excellent deployant clasp with innovative quick adjust mechanism.


Congratulations @Penfold36!

The third gift to give away is the Seiko 5 Sports GMT of the recipient's choice as well as a $100 gift card, both from Trifecta Watches!


Congratulations SergioG/@Extendedpizza!

Finally, and certainly not leastly (?), an Oris ProPilot 55th Reno Air Races Limited Edition 01 752 7698 4194-Set MB generously donated by Time Machine Plus, and a $100 Martu Leather Gift Card.


Congratulations @tinpusher!

To everyone who has been lucky, look for a PM from me with a request for your information to forward so you can receive your gifts. To everyone else, thank you all so, so much. I continue to be proud of and amazed at what this community can come together to accomplish.

Stay tuned for next year, and let's make Be a Peach: Help End Gynecologic Cancers in September 2024 even bigger and better!

Too big to fail or yard sale they all hale

This just in!

A donor who would like to remain anonymous wants to see the good vibes and spirit of the campaign continue, so they offered two watches for two more wheel spins! This means that two more participants in Be a Peach will be receiving gifts!

The watches are a Seiko 5 Sports SRPG31 and a Casio Illuminator AE1300 modded with a black case!

First up, the Casio Illuminator AE1300:


Congratulations @nyonya!

Now for the second bonus spin, for the Seiko 5 Sports SRPG31:


Congratulations @cheddar!

Please send me a PM with your shipping information and I'll make sure the anonymous donator gets the watches out to you.

Thank you again to everyone!

Another bonus spin!



In the spirit of this community and paying it forward, @The Sultan of SoWhat has graciously returned the Martu Leather gift card code that was part of his gift package. He informed me that he'd like to see another wheel spin performed so another person who donated to the Be a Peach campaign could receive a gift.

The wheel has been spun, and it stopped on @TagTime! Congratulations!
