A fine gesture by a legend ...
As most of you are aware that Octavio Garcia (ex Ap artistic director ) ventured out to create his own brand under the name of Gorilla . Not only he survived but his creation was short listed for the GPHG 2018 under 5k challenge category . Which itself is an achievement that it was even considered to be shortlisted whereby competing with the likes of Nomos and Tudor . Iam sure soon he will be earning one of those accolades ...
He has just sent a watch which is being produced in limited series of 77 pieces for a famous vlogger named Svipe ( salamondrin) . As a kind gesture he allocated us watch #1 and Iam proud to disclose that I have 3 of his LE series piece 1/XX.
Great creation in black ceramic , titanium and aluminium insert. And above all my son is over the moon and has loads of positive feedbacks . He is a new collector but has few Rolexes , omega , GShocks, baume etc etc
Few pics ..
