When Time Provides - How RedBar Atlanta and Nodus are Combining A Shared Passion for Watches with Philanthropy

The Atlanta chapter of RedBar, a globally-renowned group of watch enthusiasts, has partnered with Nodus, a reputed watchmaker, to hold a charity watch auction. As remarkable as it sounds, the proceeds of this auction will go directly to the Atlanta Community Food Bank.

The RedBar organization prides itself as a grassroots effort to nurture the hobby of watch collecting and is known predominantly for its age-old, highly-respected presence within the horological community. Founded by Adam Craniotes and Kathleen McGivney in the heart of New York, RedBar has been instrumental in fostering a globally-connected community of watch aficionados.

Within the RedBar community, the Atlanta chapter occupies a special place. Faisal Nayani, a concierge jeweler and the avid vintage watch collector behind ‘Living the Anchor Life’, kickstarted the Atlanta chapter. The community members, united by a common passion for timepieces, have forged strong bonds transcending the mere admiration for watches.

With this watch auction, RedBar Atlanta chapter is not only bringing a unique timepiece to the fore but also spotlighting a broader role of the collector’s community. By channeling the proceeds of this auction to support the Atlanta Community Food Bank, the RedBar Atlanta chapter and Nodus are reinforcing the club’s commitment to give back to society.

Indeed, some of the most cherished ’time’ treasures are those that aid in making a difference in others’ lives. In this respect, the RedBar Atlanta chapter and Nodus venture stands as a hallmark of cherishing horology while also cherishing humanity. This effort exemplifies the timelessness of charity, inevitably making it one of the most unprecedented and unique charity watch auctions witnessed in recent horological history.
