News – Raymond Weil is Rocking a Contest to Give a Freelancer AC/DC Limited Edition Watch to a Lucky Fan

Did you grow up in the 1970s or 1980s? If so, chances are you’ve at least listened to a few AC/DC hits on the radio. Hopefully, if you’re cool enough, you were a full-blown AC/DC fan. Who doesn’t love Highway to Hell or You Shook Me All Night Long? Rock and Roll Hall of Famers, folks. They’ve sold over 200 million records. Anyway, you don’t have to be a hardcore fan to enter Raymond Weil’s contest to potentially win a limited edition Freelancer timepiece. Yes, it has an in-your-face AC/DC theme, but that just might be the best part. So, sit back, find your old AC/DC cassettes and let’s take a closer look at the watch (and how to enter the contest).

CONFIGURATE | SHARE | WIN – Win Your Personalized Armin Strom Watch With the Online Configurator

Recently, we reported to you a achievement that we, at Monochrome, think will be the next level of watchmaking, the Armin Strom Watch Configurator. As we told you, there’s no way that industry can still rely on old-fashioned production and selling channels. The next step is named “customization” and Armin Strom is the first to come with a proper achieved idea, an exhaustive Watch Configurator – where every aspect of the watch and the movement can be configured. Well, apart from this, there’s something extremely cool that we wanted to share: the possibility to win your personalized Armin Strom watch by sharing your configurated watch on Instagram in a creative way… Sounds interesting, right?
