Time for a New Arrival: Welcoming Monumental Watches
So, I'm absolutely delighted to announce the latest addition to the Yuh Gettin' Tru family: Monumental Watches.
When I started this project, the goal wasn't just to help you find hardware and groceries (though, let's be honest, finding that specific bolt at Kooyman is still a primary use case!). It was to build a comprehensive view of everything you can buy in Barbados.
And today, we're adding a bit of sparkle to that index.
More Than Just a Timepiece
What I love about Monumental Watches isn't just the products—though the watches are stunning—it's the story behind them.
The company was founded by Darnel Greenidge, a young Bajan entrepreneur who wanted to create something that represented "perseverance and triumph." The brand is actually a tribute to his grandmother, Esther Greenidge.
As Darnel puts it:
"Monumental Watches are not just watches, they are symbols of love, strength, commitment and pride."
It's this kind of local storytelling that makes the Bajan retail landscape so unique. You're not just buying a watch; you're buying into a piece of local heritage.
The Collections
We've indexed their entire catalog, which includes:
- The 166 Collection
- The Heritage Collection
- The Icon Collection
- Cherish Charm Bracelets
Whether you're looking for a gift or just want to treat yourself, you can now search for "gold watch", "charm bracelet", or even "trident" (their logo is the Bajan trident!) right here on Yuh Gettin' Tru.
Under the Hood
For the techies among you: Monumental Watches runs on Wix.
Wix sites can sometimes be a bit tricky to index because they rely heavily on JavaScript to render content. But thanks to the robust json-ld structured data they provide, our crawlers were able to pick up product details, prices, and availability without breaking a sweat.
We're pulling in:
- Real-time pricing (in BBD, of course)
- High-res product images
- Availability status
It's been a smooth integration, and it takes our total store count up to 46 retailers.
