Looking for 3 370Zs to be sponsored by my up and coming watch company!
 
Yes I know guys, its not an auto part. Ive been on the scene for 10 years, I myself sponsored my many different companies in the past. I know how it all works. We've all seen how sponsorships benefit the car, the driver and the sponsoring company.

Im in the process of starting my own watch brand/company. These arent overly expensive watches. The intentions of this brand is to provide bright, obnoxious fun watches, the kind of watch that you can wear with any outfit. I myself am a compulsive coordinator and I know theres many others out there just like me, these watches are intended to meet the needs of those with the same sickness I have.

The brand is also motivated my the electro/trance/progressive/house sub culture. Its motive is to mix the concepts of style, fashion and music. I will also, obviously, be reaching out and trying to provide product ideas for those in the automotive scene and for those who like to shred up the slopes.

If your car is not modified and wont be showing please dont bother inquiring. Im looking for those who have a show schedule set up for the coming months, those who may have magazine shoots.... basically those who will be in the spotlight. This would be a product for promotion deal. I will give you watches, you give me exposure at shows, banner/decal the car, hand out business cards, tell all your friends etc.

I will get into further detail with those who are interested.

The company name is VIBE Watch Company. You can check out the FB page at www.Facebook.com/VIBEWatchCompany. We have a site to but its under construction, ..

FYI: Product pictures are not available just yet, first batch of watches are due at the end of this week.

Thanks guys. :bowrofl:

Im not sure if Im allowed to post a link to my FB page, Im going to post it tho. Mods, if its not allowed let me know and I will remove the link.

You are a brave man to enter the watch world as younger folks use their cell phones as time pieces. I wish you great success. Good luck.

You'll be surprised. Watch collectors and lovers come in all shapes, sizes, and ages.

NOFATCHX, good luck with your venture. Hope all works out for you!

hey im younger folk but i still wear a watch

@OP if you make anything like the casio gshock ill definitely buy one, i have a casio gshock but the strap broke and i just picked up an off brand gshock replica and that thing works just as well as the original(i accidentally went swimming with it LOL)

NOFATCHX 09-13-2012 04:23 PM

They will resemble GShock in small ways but definitely much different. Def won't be charging GShock prices, $20 - $40 a piece for first edition. Cost may go up slightly in future as colors and options with be more detailed and specific.

Watches these days are more a style piece then a functionable accessory. These are more about style and appearance then telling you what time of day it is. I think of a watch like we think of a painting our calipers, it's an accent color that brings everything together.

NOFATCHX 09-13-2012 04:26 PM

Follow my FB page guys and spread the word. Thanks for the motivation.

NOFATCHX 09-13-2012 04:27 PM

Considered making a watch for Z community. What you guys think?

dmhenderson 09-13-2012 04:30 PM

To get the kind of car you're describing, I'm thinking you might have to do better than "free watches" but I dunno for sure.

Edit: I did like your facebook page though.

TypeOne 09-13-2012 04:32 PM

I was going to say... I see a lot of pictures of a logo but not watches...

:icon14:

Do you have the watches made? Over seas or USA? Did you design the watches, or are they like normal ones you can get elsewhere...?

Cooled by the coolant in your body. It's like a British car, the oil is shared between the motor and the gearbox.

I'm thinking Shamu would look good with some Vibe decals. I love watches too,

As an owner/ driver of an active, established, competitive motorsports team.... with lots of events, media and advertising partners.... business deals have to make sense. You're asking for real estate and media impressions. Thats a valuable commodity. Whats in it for the vehicle owner?

I have product sponsors in the mix, some I run, some I turn into cash. A team only needs so many watches (little value there) and even with a donation of say 200 watches, it's more trouble than it's worth to turn them into cash.

Now good for you starting your own company..... and offering to "help" enthusiasts. But you gain far more with a branded hot car, even if it was totalled a week after you got all your pics and vids. Nothing about this says win-win. Sorry for the dose of reality.

Best of luck to you.

UNKNOWN_370 09-14-2012 08:41 AM

i rock watches... own around 5 between the $240 and $900 range though. My cheapest is Bulova, most expensive is movado. I don't rock $35 swatch type obnoxious watches anymore cuz im not 15 but if i find a cool Z watch? i'm in even if its low end.

Actually, that would be a good fit. I mean, you'd get a good watch, and they'd get the exposure from all the AutoX and/or track events you do.

Overseas. First order is on the way, they been in production and transit for almost 3 weeks, should have first batch by mid of next week. First batch is for promotional purpose and to start generating income to purchase future more specifically detailed watches, some which have been ordered already. These watches have a basic template but have been made to my specific color combination's etc. They can be found in generic form but are very basic form, these watches will be coming in colors and combination's that you cannot just go out and find.

Im not looking to have a logo placed on a true race vehicle nor I am asking for it to be on the hotttest of the hot cars. Im not trying to compete for real estate on a car that already has every inch of the cars exterior covered in another brands logo. Im looking for the general enthusiast who will be showing, whether local or national, who wants to gain a few watches and help a fellow member reach a larger crowd.

These watches arent intended to be compete with the expensive classy watches you mention, youll certainly see that if you continue to follow. These watches are geared towards a certain demographic for sure and arent meant for everyone. These are just fun, casual watches intended to be worn by those who want that finishing touch to there coordinated outfit.

NOFATCHX 09-14-2012 10:38 AM

Look guys Im not trying to type up a legal contract with complicated lingo stating what you'll do for me and Ill do for you. Im not trying to tell you that if you dont do as we agree Im going to sue you in court for breaking a legal binding contract. Im not trying to make your car look like the TIDE Nascar. If you guys have a car that people stare at when you drive down the road every day, if your going to be showing locally or nationally, if you like watches and want to get a few for free for sticking a banner on your car, then lets talk. If your a competitive driver who has extensive knowledge of the industry and views the panels of his car as 'real estate' then dont bother, Im in no position to pay anyone to put a sticker on their car.

Mick_12Nismo 09-14-2012 11:38 AM

Hey Shamu,

I tried to PM you but it looks like your mailbox has been on a feeding frenzy and can't accept new messages.

Where did you get the tow hook for your Nismo? A URL link to the vendor would be appreciated.

Thx!!

bigdog1250 09-14-2012 11:43 AM

Shamu your car looks amazing in that shot!

I know... I'm just saying I would rock a Z related watch, no matter how inexpensive . Thats all.

My car is only internally modded. :( Otherwise I'd drive up myself n do it.

Yeeeah I actually wanted to contact a new, awesome wheel brand thats become a big hit in the last year about coming up with a style of watch which showed each of their 7 newest style wheels on the face. Needless to say I didnt hear back from them :shakes head:

NOFATCHX 09-18-2012 09:15 PM

Some of our first releases are up on our page if you guys wanna check them out, if your looking for $200+ watches and arent worried about bright colors and coordinated outfits then this isnt for you.
