Conquering Baja with Precision and Grit

Joe Bacal isn’t just a driver—he’s a warrior on wheels. A cancer survivor and off-road racing champion, Joe carved out his legacy behind the wheel of a Lexus, defying expectations and terrain alike. From the brutal Baja 500 to the unforgiving Baja 1000, he’s proven time and again that true endurance lives not just in horsepower, but in heart.


To honor his relentless spirit, Timeless Valor partnered with Joe to design a timepiece that embodies the same precision, durability, and style he demands on the course.


The custom watch dial is stamped with JTGrey Racing and Lexus Factory Off-Road Racing logos, two names synonymous with elite desert performance. Its sleek black face is surrounded by a rich blue dive bezel, echoing the team’s vehicle livery and Joe’s signature calm-under-pressure racing style.


Built on our 42mm steel platform, the watch features 300m water resistance, sapphire crystal, and luminous dial markers for unmatched clarity in any condition—day or night, sand or mud. It’s not just a watch; it’s a tool fit for those who push limits.


From Baja trails to boardrooms, Joe Bacal’s custom timepiece reflects the journey of a champion who never backs down.
