Cool Hunting and Nomos Glashütte donate to the Trevor Project with the sale of the colorful models they created together.
Life is beautiful with colors. And it's hard. But not equally hard for all of us. Much more difficult for some of us. If you are discriminated against or harassed because of your sexual orientation; If you have to cope with bullying at school, at work, and even you hardly breathe, the life that is beautiful with these colors is really difficult.
While dealing with this type of bullying is heavy enough even for adults, it is sometimes unbearable for young people. That's why there is a nonprofit organization that focuses on suicide prevention efforts among young people in the LGBTQ + community; The Trevor Project.
The short film named 'Trevor', which won the Academy Award in 1994 was about the story of a 13-year-old gay boy who was rejected by his friends because of his sexual orientation, who became very lonely due to his family's inability to support him, and after the events, he tried to take his own life. When the film was decided to be broadcasted on the HBO channel in 1998, producers James Lecesne, Peggy Rajski, and Randy Stone sought to find a hotline that young viewers with similar issues with Trevor could call during the broadcast. The frustrating search led them to establish their own organizations.
Trevor Lifeline was founded with the Colin Higgins Foundation and HBO's license fee. The result is the first 'crisis and suicide prevention helpline' for LGBTQ + youth, operating 24 hours a day across the country. Trevor Project also provides teens online support, educators' and parents' guidance, and resources through its website.
On the other hand, Cool Hunting, which has been operating since 2003, is an award-winning, independent publication that reveals the current intersections of design, culture, and technology. They describe themselves as "a group of writers and editors who foster curiosity in the ongoing quest for the discovery of true inspiration."
Partnering with Club Campus 38 for Pride models, Nomos Glashütte and Cool Hunting will donate $ 100 from the sale of each model to the Travel Project.
The new limited-edition collaboration products consist of color versions of Nomos' existing Club Campus 38 series. Meeting with watch enthusiasts for the first time in 2016, Club Campus appeals to the young customers of the brand. The name 'Campus' given to the models undoubtedly defines this audience. Club Campus 38 Pride models are powered by the brand's first in-house movement, the hand-wound Alpha, and provide a minimum 43-hour power reserve when fully wound.
The dials decorated with red, yellow, blue, orange, green, and violet colors have a 'California' design layout. It is denoted by 10, 12, and two large numbers, eight and four in Roman numerals. All markers and rhodium-plated hands have a white Super-LumiNOVA. Each dial color has a special meaning: Life (red - Ref. 735.S2), Healing (orange - Ref. 735.S5), Sunlight (yellow - Ref. 735.S3), Nature (green - Ref. 735. S6), Serenity (blue - Ref.735.S4) and Spirit (violet - Ref.735.S7).
Nomos Glashütte Club Campus 38 Pride models come in a 38.5mm diameter stainless steel case. A curved sapphire crystal rises above the dial. On the closed case back, there is the Cool Hunting logo and the watch's limited number/22 engraving. The case is resistant to water pressure up to 100 meters.
Pride models, each offered for sale with a price tag of 1,200 EUR, are complemented by a water-resistant gray woven textile strap.
