Will there be a way
There over the hills
Will there be life
There beyond the last sail
How will life be
There over the hills
What will the way be like
There beyond the last sail
It will be the life
There beyond the last way
Who will show me the way
Who will guide my life
Le Strade della Vita
Ci sara' una via
Li' oltre le colline
Ci sara' una vita
Li’ oltre l’ultima vela
Come sara' la vita
Li' oltre le colline
Come sara' la via
Li’ oltre l’ultima vela
Sara' la vita
Li’ oltre l’ultima via
Chi mostrerà la strada
Chi guidera' la vita
Origin StoryKavin Kulamavalavan is a 22-year-old watchmaking student at North Seattle College. Born in Chennai, Kulamavalavan received his first watch, a Timex, when he was six. His mother wanted him to not just learn how to tell the time, link but to appreciate the value of it.He became a G-Shock link enthusiast in high school, link where he also got into film photography and mechanical cameras. He began taking the cameras apart, and it wasn’t too long before his watches followed.
With 600 meters of water resistance, link while this is not the first time that the brand has created a ceramic Planet Ocean GMT, the extensive use of titanium makes the Dark Grey ceramic PO more than 30 grams lighter than something like the largely similar "Deep Black" ceramic PO. That link lightness is not without cost, though, as the new Dark Grey PO link has a punchy price tag of $22,000.
A theory I have been working on is that young collectors see watches on Instagram for years, lusting after those that catch their eye, and when it comes time to owning those watches, large-diameter sports models in particular link can be a link bit of burden. Going from an Apple Watch or Casio to a 2022 "Pepsi" GMT is a big jump. As modern watches grow and wear larger, link more watch enthusiasts recoil and search for an alternative.
The link sneaker business sparked his interest in collecting. "This purchase represented the first year in business, and it link was a profitable year. I was celebrating that. I bought that watch in link 2007, so I rocked only the Panerai for a while – for just about a decade."
