🥤 The GMT Challenger – Inspired by the Underdog in All of Us 🐾
Most orders ship within a few days. If you have a tight timeline, e-mail me ASAP and I'll do my best to accommodate.
Depending on your age, you might remember one of the first viral ad campaigns—where a soda company asked people to taste two colas and pick their favorite. The “Challenger” beat the Champion more often than not (at least in the commercials that aired).
So here’s my take: a GMT inspired by that soda—and the scrappy ingenuity it took to go head-to-head with a giant. A watch for those of us who don’t mind second place… as long as we got there on our own terms.
