What Time Is It?
Too much on his plate? Axl Rose proves he can be quite a multi-tasker. Case in point, being the frontman of two legendary rock bands and jumping from one tour to the next. Is that enough? Of course not. Axl has just partnered with boutique watch manufacturer HYT as a “Friend of the Brand” — you know, the guys that used liquid for their time-telling display. In fact, during one of his shows in Europe as the temporary vocalist of AC/DC, he was spotted wearing the HYT Skull Maori Model.

The limited edition pieces will be based on their Skull Collection. And according to HYT Co-Founder and Board Member Vincent Perriard, “Axl is a huge fan of watches in general but when he came across HYT he was really blown away! Axl and HYT share the same unconventional attitude. I can feel this partnership is going to be very rock ‘n roll.”
It won’t come cheap by the way because the one Axl is seen wearing, that retails for $120,000. You still have time to save though because the watches will be available on January 2017.
