Axl Rose Makes Expensive Watches Now

Did you know that some old people still wear watches instead of just getting the time from their phone? It’s true! And one of those old people is Axl Rose! In fact, Vincent Perriard, who co-founded a company watch manufacturer called HYT, says that “Axl is a huge fan of watches in general,” which is surprising, given his penchant the singer’s proclivity for taking his sweet ass time getting anywhere or doing anything ever.

ANYWAY,  the aforementioned HYT, who are known for using really neat-o hydromechanical technology, will partner with Rose a limited edition variation of one of the pieces from their “Skull Collection.”

Here’s a photo of Rose wearing one of these Skull watches:

And here’s what they look like when they haven’t been forced onto his tubby wrist with butter:

No word on how much the watches will cost… but the Skull designs that aren’t part of this limited edition collection will already run you roughly $100,000, according to the cleverly named A Blog to Watch. So they will probably not be cheap. But on the plus side, they also don’t indicate minutes. Come to think of it, that’s probably why Rose likes them.
