RAMONES- Pam homages

[Superman76]

Concept by me... execution by Pratt with awesome Ross dials. One watch for each founding member of the Ramones. Here, the '74 strap is significant because the Ramones formed in 1974.















This was a tough job for Pratt... I wanted the watches to be uniform with individual personality, much like the Ramones. I love the punky look of the Dee Dee watch. The dial 1-2-3-4 indices because that's what DeeDee shouted between songs. It was often the only break between blistering 4-chord anthems. The Ramones were a very special part of my life - when I transitioned from listening to metal as a teen to punk and later indie rock stuff. One of my first concerts was a Ramones show in Buffalo at the age of 17. It was the loudest show I've ever been too... they were like a buzz saw ripping through the crowd. Changed my life. Feel free to share your own Ramones story...

Very well executed. I suppose one can inflate this concept to other bands with noticeable icons: Led Zeppelin, Kiss, etc.

 

[Superman76]

a Kiss project would be awesome... I'm sure there are plenty of mega fans out there to appreciate.

straps are from Lion straps and 74 strap from cbstraps

Thanks Man,

I think my first Ramones record was a mix my high school girlfriend gave to me... I liked it so much, I married her. We seriously considered naming our first child Ramona or Sheena.

If you guys haven't .. and are at all interested in some great Rock'nRoll history, check out "End of the Century: The Story of the Ramones"... It's the definitive Ramones documentary. Even if you are not a fan, it's just a great Rock and Roll documentary.
