David King,President of King Jewelers Nashville, Featured Alongside Gibson Guitars and Raymond Weil in Winter 2017 Edition of Revolution USA Magazine
Raymond Weil has long been a supporter of the music industry, with special edition watches dedicated to Frank Sinatra, The Beatles, David Bowie, and Bob Marley, among others. It’s no surprise that the brand eventually pursued a partnership with Gibson Guitars, juggernaut of the music industry and leading manufacturer of guitars. With Gibson’s ties to Nashville and the city’s reigning status of Music City USA, it makes sense that King Jewelers, the authorized Raymond Weil dealer in Nashville, would feature heavily in the promotion of the product. The Raymond Weil and Gibson Guitars partnership has since yielded two Gibson watches; the Nabucco Nashville edition, based off the Gibson SG Standard, was debuted to much fanfare at an exclusive party hosted by King Jewelers in 2015, and now a Freelancer inspired by the Gibson Les Paul has been released to even greater acclaim. To further investigate what makes this partnership tick, Editor-in-Chief of Revolution USA Keith Strandberg visited Nashville to see what all the fuss was about.
During his stay in Music City, Strandberg visited King Jewelers to talk with David King about Nashville’s booming growth and why King feels the Gibson/Raymond Weil partnership was a match made in music heaven. David’s passion project, Rock Royalty, also makes an appearance throughout the article. Rock Royalty creates one-of-a-kind custom guitars for the musician (or music fan) in your life. Pick up a copy of the Winter 2017 edition of Revolution USA magazine to learn more about Strandberg’s trip to Tennessee and read why he feels the watch industry and the guitar industry are more alike than they are different. Be sure to visit King Jewelers to explore Raymond Weil’s impressive watch lineup, and to shop the limited Gibson timepieces.

Raymond Weil Partners with Gibson Brands to Create a True Musicians Timepiece
We’re still a few months away from our Raymond Weil Gibson Watch launch event, but we have some exciting information on the watch, just in time for its arrival in our Nashville salon. Raymond Weil has always been a music-centric watch brand, and the recent collaboration with the Sinatra family to create the limited edition Frank Sinatra watch has only strengthened that musical presence. Now Raymond Weil has partnered with another huge name in the industry, Gibson Brands, and it’s music to our ears! Henry Juszkiewicz, Chairman and CEO of Gibson Brands said, “Raymond Weil and Gibson Brands are the perfect combination of excellence and craftsmanship. We are delighted to be aligned with the Nabucco line, exceptional timepieces inspired by the highest quality guitars.”
The special edition Nabucco inspired by Gibson was first unveiled at Baselworld 2015. The watch features design elements of the self-tuning Gibson SG Standard. The watch has a self-winding mechanical chronograph movement contained within a sizable 46mm steel and titanium case with a gray ceramic tachometer bezel. The black galvanic dial features six grooves, meant to represent the six strings of a guitar. The Gibson logo is featured prominently at the 12 o’clock position. It is covered by scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and has a clear sapphire crystal case back. The Gibson logo is engraved on the case back. The strap is black alligator leather. The Gibson watch will be limited to just 200 pieces.
In honor of Gibson’s deep roots in Nashville, Raymond Weil has agreed to create a limited “Nashville, TN” edition. These special timepieces will be numbered (1-10) and will feature additional special engravings on the sapphire crystal case back. Nashville edition Gibson watches will also include a special edition watch box. As Nashville’s authorized Raymond Weil dealer, King Jewelers is thrilled to have exclusive access to these limited edition timepieces.
This October, King Jewelers will partner with Raymond Weil, Gibson, and VH1 to host an exclusive event in downtown Nashville introducing the Raymond Weil Gibson Nabucco watch. Expect live music, food, drinks, possible celebrity appearances, and of course, these beautiful Nashville edition timepieces available for purchase while supplies last. In a city that’s so dedicated to the music industry, we doubt they’ll last long! Stay tuned! We’ll be releasing more information about the Raymond Weil Gibson Nabucco and our launch party in October as it becomes available!
Raymond Weil Honors Frank Sinatra with Limited Edition Timepiece
December 12th, 2015 marks what would have been Frank Sinatra’s 100th birthday. To celebrate this centennial, Raymond Weil has partnered with the Sinatra family to produce a timepiece in honor of “Ol’ Blue Eyes.” Elie Bernheim, CEO of Raymond Weil is thrilled to have formed this new relationship with the Sinatra family, saying “It is a great honor to have partnered with the Frank Sinatra Enterprises to create a design that celebrates this special occasion. Frank Sinatra was a charismatic character who left an indelible mark in the hearts and minds of many generations; he embodied an era, a style, and a tradition, and was above all a passionate man of extraordinary talent. As a music-loving family company, it is perfectly fitting that we pay tribute to this undisputed maestro of music with a limited edition piece in our maestro collection.”
The Limited Edition Frank Sinatra Maestro has a mechanical automatic movement contained within a 39.5mm stainless steel case. The silver dial features blue hands and indicators, a reference to Frank Sinatra’s “Ol’ Blue Eyes” moniker. In a nod to the legendary entertainer’s birthday, December 12th, the 12 marker is highlighted as the only Roman numeral. The watch also features a date display window at the 3 o’clock position. It is covered by scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and features a sapphire crystal case back. Featured most predominately on the transparent case back is a special Sinatra Centennial engraving.

The brown calfskin leather strap has a stainless steel tang buckle. The watch is water resistant up to 50m. In another nod to the singer’s 12-12 birthday, this piece will be limited to just 1,212 pieces.
Frank Sinatra, Jr. seemed to explain the relationship best when he said “Frank Sinatra understood the vital importance of time and when preparing his music he employed what he had named ‘the heartbeat tempo.’ For that reason, he insisted that his wristwatch would have the utmost mechanical integrity and construction to guarantee many years of faithful and accurate service. Master of horology, Raymond Weil has steadfastly maintained this degree of excellence and in the centennial celebration of the birth of Frank Sinatra, I am proud to see my father’s name associated with this magnificent timepiece. At just $1,395 this timepiece is truly an exceptional purchase. The timepiece will be released to us this June, just in time for Father’s Day. To schedule a private showing of this limited edition timepiece, please contact an associate at either our Nashville, TN or Aventura, FL salon.
Raymond Weil is a brand that truly understands the idea of concept to reality. Raymond Weil, the man, in 1976 had a vision of Swiss watchmaking and now it has become a global brand known for its craftsmanship. With that being said, we find great pleasure in introducing Raymond Weil to Nashville and continuing our own vision of providing quality luxury Swiss timepieces.
