Question
im getting 1007 on my watch most times i look nat it what is that

Answer
I really do not know, Jason.
Could it be a reference to October 7, the feast of Our Lady of the Rosary -- a feast instituted by St. Pius V after the underdog Catholic forces organized by the Pope defeated the Moslims at the Battle of Lepanto in 1571?
Best wishes.
