A WATCH FOR THEIR 30 YEAR ANNIVERSARY

Anthrax were planning their 30 year anniversary of Persistence of Time and asked David Campo, Founder of NEZUMI Studios, if he wanted to design a watch for them, creating a humbling opportunity where David was able to fuse his enthusiasm for Anthrax with his talent for designing beautiful watches.

Persistence of Time was the fifth studio album by Anthrax and a huge success that also resulted in a Grammy award nomination in 1991. The album title and hit song ‘Got the Time’ made it a perfect fit for a watch to celebrate the 30-year anniversary.

NEZUMI x ANTHRAX

Designer and founder of Nezumi Studios, David Campo has created this Limited Edition Baleine dive watch inspired by the Anthrax, Persistence of Time album artwork.

David grew up in the USA and spent most of his free time skating, listening to metal and practicing licks on his guitar. He got his first glimpse into the fashion scene while hanging out at rock couture designer Ray Brown’s house, who was David’s best friend’s dad. Years later he got to know Charlie Benante via their mutual friend, David Ellefson of Megadeth, and the stars aligned. When Anthrax were planning their 30 year anniversary of Persistence of Time and asked if David wanted to do something special for them – NEZUMI x ANTHRAX Ref. BA2S.233 came to life.
