maaaaad props

[sky110066]

Thx Bro !

[collinsboi]

just copped mine!

How long do they take to ship out?

[tommyroks]

white or blk.....hmmmmm

[K BOOG]

i copped black. white would get dirty/old looking IMO

thanks for this.been waiting for MONTHS for the re-release. matches my fire red 3s and black v's so nice!

[Willt_8]

just ordered the black Crooks Good tee

[sneak7attack]

good looking... i just can't bring myself to pay $54 for it

[h.lurker]

My closet is getting sick of black tees. White just sold out.

[Jesse10]

davinci good shit man..i ordered the black...if anything sneak attack the price could only go up on these

[JCL Rx]

thanks!

[DaVinci]

davinci good shit man..i ordered the black...if anything sneak attack the price could only go up on these

no doubt...

check the prices on eBay

[K BOOG]

suprised the white went faster than the black...

[tommyroks]

good looking... i just can't bring myself to pay $54 for it

me too but fawk it copped two!!! reselling!!!!!!

[sneak7attack]

I know the resell is a lot, but I'm not a reseller... At this point in time, $54 is just a lot to spend on one tee. But, I'll most def be @ the sample sale... 5 tees for $100 and no tax is what I'm talking about!

[DaVinci]

i doubt theyll have any of the tees they just put up at the sale

[K BOOG]

damn...both colors already sold out! went up at about 9:15 or so...and now its 1:00am est... glad i finally waited and paid retail...

[hollermcdollar]

^$45 is retail for this shit? wow.

[soleseeker]

Last time Crooks sold these online they were up one night, taken down and then put back online the next day. Check tomorrow they might have more, might not.

[UKingdom]

damn that was fast. still not as good as the original blue/pink/yellow colorway though.

[Vectorman]

Fuck that i want the mascot tee.

[jawnly211]

My closet is getting sick of black tees. White just sold out.

no doubt

summer is about to begin and fools are still making BLACK tees??????

im no steven cojocaru, but black is not the color to be wearing in the 80-90 degree weather

[Lifted.]

its always been 45 i dont kno why people are still surprised

[goatfacekillah]

lets not forget international shipping (to Canada) is $15usd EXTRA
so if i copped this shirt to resell
i'd end up making $20 profit
woopty-fuckin-doo

and that colourway on the Big Face Medusa is ugly
the white/gold one was the best one to date

[hellah fresh]

damn that was fast. still not as good as the original blue/pink/yellow colorway though.

^^ Yup Yup I got both White & Black. The Black is still fresh in the bag.:)

[Jesse10]

^^ Yup Yup I got both White & Black. The Black is still fresh in the bag.:)

would it happen to be a medium player?

[golDIE]

still not as good as the original blue/pink/yellow colorway though.

Yeah cuz the OGs were worth the bread. Heads-up for all of you that design was originally GLC's(G.O.O.D. music artist). He makes shirts/sweaters with the design all the time so if you guys like the design rather than the fact that it's a collab with C&C, look into the GLC shirts.

[FindThatXXL]

im just waiting for that sale/bbq this saturday to check the gear out.

[909jenius]

THEY ARE UP AGAIN!!ALL SIZES!

You know any sites i can get the G.O.O.D. brand? I seen it at 1 online shop but i slept on it. =\

Sorry man... XL? haha Yup i love that shirt tho.

Try ftkonline.com or ebay are your best bets!

[CaTasHtRoPhE]

Meh i wanted this tee but i think all pass now.I like the glc colorway more.

[tommyroks]

my shit is shipped already.

[UKingdom]

i have the original black/yellow/blue in medium, PM if you have a serious offer, lowballers ignored

[hellah fresh]

I do want to buy these tees and hold on to them... But i will hold off on them =\.. they will always be on Ebay for a period of time.

[TeddyLearned]

THEY ARE UP AGAIN!!ALL SIZES!

haha...finally got one. thanks, dude.

[supreme x jdm]

i ordered mines an hour ago and in paypal it says "Authorization" "Pending"?!?

but my funding type is Instant Transfer....

anyone elses like this?

[TeddyLearned]

mine says pending too...fuck, maybe i'm not going to get one after all.

[supreme x jdm]

mine says pending too...fuck, maybe i'm not going to get one after all.

i think that maybe they left for the day and they they have to confirm the order to even put it through.. maybe tomorrow morning when they get in? (HOPEFULLY)

*i tried calling them and they didnt pick up.. ill try tomorrow.

[h.lurker]

If you order online, you get queued. Your payment is pending until they approve it. Then it ships out.

[supreme x jdm]

If you order online, you get queued. Your payment is pending until they approve it. Then it ships out.

yeah thats what i thought... thanks

[TeddyLearned]

If you order online, you get queued. Your payment is pending until they approve it. Then it ships out.

yep, understand that, but sometimes when the demand (pending orders) for a particular shirt exceeds supply, orders get cancelled & shit gets refunded...

i just hope you're right & this isn't the case.

[h.lurker]

The first time these tees dropped, my order got cancelled because they sold out. So yea, better hope you're high up on the queue.

They also don't answer emails when I never got any shipping confirmation. I figured it out when I checked my PayPal receipt, in tiny type: "sold out."

[kinglew619]

Im tempted to click the pay button in my cart

fuck, don't know if i should go to sample or sleep on this

[Lifted.]

how do crooks tees run? wut sz should i get if i wear a M in hundreds and L in diamond?

[Jesse10]

my order says completed..maybe this is only for the second time they went up..best of luck ppl..its funny the original ones released in 2 stores here in the entire south florida area and some asshole bought them all out for his store in china

[croook]

yooo if anyone ordered more than one of the black g.o.o.d tees
in size xxxl
i'd definately take it off your hands for a fair price.
just pm me.
thanks8)

[losnyc82]

i have the black on in xxl from the first order months ago i thought the shirts ran smaller for some reason :( but boy was i wrong anyone wanna trade the black their xl for a black xxl?

[supreme x jdm]

my order says completed now.. i can also check shipment...woOT!:)

[JOHNz]

these shirts are hott yo

[DiZzy]

black mascot tee hollaa

[mknyc]

Nothin on there Touches the original colorway of the Good X Crooks

[TeddyLearned]

yep, my shit got cancelled. oh well. :(

[kinglew619]

YES! one was shipped to me.......now i need that
LRG X GOOD MUSIC hoody when it drops to rock with it!
pics?

[golDIE]

He was asking the guy if he had pics of the G.O.O.D. x LRG hoody.

[DisoBAYish]

bitch dont make me pull out my hammer

http://i11.tinypic.com/4lr9384.jpg

[kinglew619]

i said it was shipped.... i don't have it yetim talking about the hoodie *****

[h.lurker]

yo, restocked!

So much for a "limited run." Why am I paying an additional $10 for a limited tee again?

[wowhawtsex]

they're playing you with the "limited run" lol... after this stock is done its another restock baby!

[UKingdom]

this is hilarious; as long as people are buying them they'll keep pulling this shit. i don't know why they canceled orders though, the resell market is going to be flooded with these. which only makes the original colorway that much doper and the true one to get. still got my o/g colorway black/blue/yellow size medium DS, current highest offer is $130 holla at me.

http://formatmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/03/crooksandcastlesgood.jpg 500 made.

[soleseeker]

I got a confirmation saying they sent 2 of the 3 I ordered and that I couldn't get the 3rd one because they had limited of each size -now these fucks put em back in stock. I'm actually glad I didn't get my 3rd one now but canceling orders and then putting the sizes back on is bs.

[mastergfunk]

OG color way is WAYYYYYYYYYYY better hit me up if anyone wants a og blk or white in XL

[ROC]

For those of you complaining...I don't think it's fair to really complain about the situation. Most of you who want to buy a whole bunch, it's to put on ebay, not to say I haven't done it before with another item but I think Dennis and the guys at Crooks realized there was a demand for the shirt and because of the demand they wanted to release it again through their in house method and keep the majority of their money...if anything it's just being a part of capitalistic society and taking advantage of what's out there. This is their one shirt that has been hypebeastesque and they're simply taking advantage of it...complain all you want but it won't drive prices down.

[j6485shady]

damn, already sold out. word gets out fast.

lets hope they will carry some at the crooks sale later today in LA.

[Lifted.]

^^wordddddd. they restocked on the website like 3 times tho

[h.lurker]

Judging by what the guy told me, they still have more.

Fucking lame calling it a limited edition and charging $45 instead of $35 if they indeed have more stocked and presumably ready to sell again in the future.

It's a dope shirt, and I got mine the first time this colorway was made available about a month ago. Limited my ass.

[DaVinci]

^A.K.A. you slept

[Nino]

i cannot see myself spending $45 on that,

especially when there is so many nice kazbah brands out w/ way nicer prints & and better prices..

i mean, so what if jay or kanye was wearing that? be yourself ppl. or maybe that's just me

[deltakid]

some copy cats are just unsecure what to wear and what not so they wait until a celeb "approves" it.

dont hate cause you slept.

[Leumas]

its not a matter of "oh jay and kanye wore it" its because the t-shirt is fucking nice. its never entered my head about who wore this particular tee. this tee is one of my grails and i never knew of them re-releasesing these tees. definatly have keep checking the fashion forum more often

[tommyroks]

OG color way is WAYYYYYYYYYYY better hit me up if anyone wants a og blk or white in XL

great way of trying to market your "OG color" shirt.

Im not into hypbeast shirts like these but I actually like this one. I never spend more than $20 for a tee. I guess i broke my own rule.

[dvs0690]

just wondering if anybody that placed an order on friday had there order fulfilled yet?

[Nino]

dont hate cause you slept.

it's called "smart buys", don't assume

Everything on there is 'limited'. Laugh.

Everything nowadays is "Limited" the way to lure hybebeast kids.

[supreme x jdm]

i got all my tee's in today.. lookin GOOD

shipping was quick too... very pleased.

[SSBSTS]

[tommyroks]

[UKingdom]

[fresh&clean]

alright ya'll, i got a black in XL and a white M good crooks but i'm actually a Large size (I bought both hoping one would fit decent). I have homies that I could just dump the shirts off to for retail but what i'm realy looking for is a L in either color. I just want one shirt anyways. so holla! Resellers that have like 20 of each color and size...holla

[♫J To The T♫]

The black for sure.

[Ppoy]

when and how much ?

[Crook]

Im really feelin that watch ...white more than the black

[eastwest]

I'm pretty sure it slated to drop for the christmas season which should start shipping out to us in early/mid november. We'll have em for sure 8)

Peace,
eastwestworldwide.com

[eastwest]

Don't quote me on this but I want to say about 2 bills...give our take a little either way...

I would also like peoples feedback on the colors...

[h.lurker]

Anyone else think the crooks/medusa looks kinda tacky for this watch?

[Crook]

Don't quote me on this but I want to say about 2 bills...give our take a little either way...

I would also like peoples feedback on the colors...

Ok now its a pass for me. It doesnt look that nice quality wise....:P

[FFent Freelanc]

Anyone else think the crooks/medusa looks kinda tacky for this watch?
yea id much rather just like the chain C's or something? the medusa is weak sauce

note: i wouldnt cop it even with the chain Cs but to each their own

[eastwest]

Ok now its a pass for me. It doesnt look that nice quality wise....:P

It's a collab with Know1edge so rest assured the quality will be on point...

Some details I know for sure:

Swiss made movement...sapphire...ceramic band

[creep3]

Eh im liking the black. However i would like to see more pictures of it.

[Crook]

Still doesnt look like its worth close to 2 bills IMO.

[creep3]

Wow i was just trippin for sleeping on it. But now its up again, i dont even think im going to buy it now.

[embark]

Still doesnt look like its worth close to 2 bills IMO.

I have the mhi panerai and it was definately worth the 200. Knowledge1 wont put out bullshit. What all ceramic watch sells for under 150 anyway?

Put me down for one in white.....most likely from your store since I am moving to central islip soon

[TeddyLearned]

Im getting a few Larges from the warehouse this week.

I will keep you guys posted.

j to the t, please let me know. thanks. i read about your recent come up in the wdywt thread. congrats.

I have a Black Crooks X Goods Tee in Medium $150 takes it now

its good, as in good music, not goods...man, i hate resellers.

[chuck]

my ceramic player > this.

[bradwalters]

man that thing is gonna be expenssssive


but yes the black one is better

[Jones Soda]

It's dope because it's the closest I will probaly get to a J12, but I'm not sure how I feel about rocking the medusa on my wrist.

What I loved about the past Know1edge watch collaboration was how simple and classy it is. The MHI panerai model was dope (and I have yet to pick up one.)

I'm thinking that the watch will be $250, like the Haze models (which are badass; own the chrome and black model.)

[chuck]

Chanel j12 goes for $5,000+
Nixon Ceramic Player goes for $1300

if this is an automatic swiss watch..then it will be at least $1000.

[Nino]

Eh im liking the black. However i would like to see more pictures of it.

just not the shirt

i'll buy a 2 or 3xl bandito from anyone whose selling tho

[profecy]

wow this watch looks like a huge ripoff of the chanel j12. at least nixon switched it up a little. tsk tsk on crooks throwing the versace face with the bandana on it again.

[NTAT]

For all ya cats that cant afford a chanel, its should work out.

[tygastyle80]

when they say the run is limited, they mean limited to the imagination. As long as they keep movin, I guess they keep printin em.

[skivic35]

Chanel j12 goes for $5,000+
Nixon Ceramic Player goes for $1300

if this is an automatic swiss watch..then it will be at least $1000.

finally someone who chimed in with knowledge of watches. i love how people are complaining about 200 when they would be willing to pay that much for the toyish g-shock watches cause of collabo's with stussy and undftd.

[HB ruin mylife]

For all ya cats that cant afford a chanel, its should work out.

well also for anyone that can't afford VERSACE,...once again another peice that looks like a versace knockoff, what are you gonna tell the average person if they check out your watch....im sure quality is straight with Knowledge, but wasnt there any other ideas or designs with all the resources both companies have. but damn that white looks nice, except for the face .

[creep3]

So does anyone know how many were suppose to be made in this run?

[darkmatter]

:P that watch is garbage....

[embark]

im sure theyll just be thinking "thats a nice watch"

I agree the logo is tacky though..

[ilovees]

logo may be tacky. but the watch quality itself i bet is gonna be worth it. i have the know1edge x haze. worth every fuckin penny. so dope.

respect to brian and annie. know1edge is the shit =)

[supreme x jdm]

i just took the shirts out of the packaging that it came in.. and all i can say is.. WOW... the pictures dont do these justice...

the quality is there... the prints are on point. the stitching on the side arms are perfect. no doubt.

the shirts quality is different from the other crooks shirts i have.. they are alittle thicker and softer.. did they change shirts for these? anyone know?

overall, im very satisfied with the purchase.

[cableboi]

Resellers are going to be all over that.

[homi]

the medusa ruins it IMO

[dynamiks]

I will definitely be copping the white one... that shit is hot! 8)

[chuck]

yeah definite knock off.

but to each his own.

but as for me, if im going to shell out that much, why not go with a nixon watch? their elite series watches(excluding the ceramic player) are better quality and better made....not to mention swiss made and affordable($600-$750). that's worth more to me than this watch. you can get a nice guaranteed watch from them, then some company who is doing a collabo who have NO idea how a watch is made. seriously .

that's just me.

[DiZzy]

easy cop. perfect timing to i've been thinking about a watch lately

[poppinCube]

this watch is lameee

[Willt_8]

I was just playing I am not planning on selling the shirt I just wanted to see what yall would say for that price lol

I just got the crooks hat in black to match the shirt

[ice13water]

the medusa does ruin it they should do more colabos with other brands

[C to the J L]

both colors are back up..full sizes

[♫J To The T♫]

[kinglew619]

soo does the white or black look better? people who have seen both in person

[DaVinci]

ive got the original colorway in black its fresh, but i ordered both colors today, i think both original colors look good, esp the black

[Nino]

i really hate being the only one who doesn't like this tee :(

what were the original colors?

[DaVinci]

white and black, the colors of the design were different, the black one has a yellowish color and a blue green, and the white was like metalic purple and a green color.

what do you Hate about this tee? its my fav crooks tee

[Nino]

i just don't like the concept,

looks like a huggies promo shirt or something.

i really just prefer more "dark" looking joints.. like the bandito

[h.lurker]

Texas is the OG Capitol.

[croook]

finally got mine...a white one, still debating if i should get the black one haha

[creep3]

Ehh im not fealing crooks right now over this. Anyone know how many were produced yet?

[supreme x jdm]

Ehh im not fealing crooks right now over this. Anyone know how many were produced yet?

probably alot, if they keep coming out with it every other day.

Weren't these suppose to be limited? That was the initial word when they dropped, only to be sold at their top-selling locations, now all of a sudden they pushing them online for full profit? Wow, all of you kids who brought into that propaganda just got robbed, wear your shirts proudly knowing you have been played for fools!

haha yeah whats the big deal, bought the shirt because i love it..has one of the sickest designs i think. so what if theyre selling them at different sites theyre business people just like everyone else out there in the world.
8)

[dynamiks]

i laugh at all the people who get mad when a company produces more of a certain item than they originally planned. who the fuck really gives a shit if they produced a few hundred more tees than they were supposed to? I live in NYC, and I have never seen one person rocking this tee in any of the colorways in the street yet. Do you think if they made enough of these tees that you are going to bump into all the people who own them when the tees are sold internationally?! It's not like they made 2 million shirts. Relax...

I would rock this tee whether it was limited or not. I like the design, the shit is sick. I honestly could care less how many of you HB's own one. Half the people copping are all resellers anyway, unlike me who actually bought it for myself.

[♫J To The T♫]

Im so tired of this tee already.

Don't Believe The Hype

[Lifted.]

Im so tired of this tee already.

Don't Believe The Hype

im just happy i finally got a shirt. i been wantin this tee because i think it is a sick design not cause of the hype..

[Paramount]

i hate when people try to use that "don't believe the hype" bull when it comes to fashion...most people buy stuff because they like it, not because everybody else wants it...

anyways, the good music x crooks tee is a cold bolded design ( i wouldn't pay $100 for it) but it nice enough to cop for retail (which i did from commonwealth yesterday)

[j6485shady]

lol, commonwealth carries them now? haha

NEVER AGAIN CROOKS!

[TeddyLearned]

lol, commonwealth carries them now? haha

NEVER AGAIN CROOKS!

its not a big deal. they carried the "og" colors before these new ones.

[kinglew619]

i think ima cop me in white

cmonwealth is sold out

I know for a fact crooks is gonna ship more out, any news on a reshipment?

[kinglew619]

Be patient.I just asked when is the reshipment

what's wrong with you?

[verbatim]

I'm not mad, please re-read the post! I didn't buy this shirt when it originally released, and still haven't now. I'm not salty about anything when a company is taking money from you guys, or for the resellers, good for them. I just think It's funny how people turn a blind eye for a "cool" company, and automatically have short-term memory.

[creep3]

Im sure they will restock again for the 6th time.

ok they just posted more detailed shots of the watch on the front page of hypebeast.. I love it even more. That white is fire!!

They say its going to be available soon, but a few days ago, they said it would be available holiday 07... So which is it going to be?? I want to make sure I don't miss this release, so if anyone knows can they tell me when is it really supposed to be released?

[revs boi]

the white looks nice and the medusa looks more subtle on the face

[Diamond]

The watch is dope... I want to get both colors.

[eastwest]

it's expected to drop for their upcoming xmas season...That means early to mid november. We'll be sure to let you know the second we receive it.

Peace,

[travis!]

^^ thats what they were going for. hence the name.. the "J-Twizzy"

white for me.
maybe both

[Jesse10]

Travis!! cough cough nooka

[tommyroks]

if i want one medusa watch. I'll go with a authentic Versace watch.

[inthemiX]

i like the black onee

[travis!]

Travis!! cough cough nooka

haha SORRY brotha. i've been lagging right. ill hit you with a PM

[chuck]

so it's official.

Swiss Made Ceramic.

this SHOULD be at least $1000.

[L]

so it's official.

Swiss Made Ceramic.

this SHOULD be at least $1000.
I really hope not, but now that I've seen the newer pictures of the watches, I'm liking the black face better.

[travis!]

i heard $800.

[chuck]

^BS..

Its just crooks not Breitling.

obviously you don't know anything about watches.

if it is indeed solid ceramic, swiss automatic, then $800 is a plausible estimation.

[travis!]

hahaha fucking kid.

its extremely plausible. you can find a bare j12 for 4k. CERAMIC only.


easily $800

[chuck]

im pretty sure it is solid ceramic. never heard of a watch being ceramic plated. and if it is, then why waste your money? it will just get destroyed.

[travis!]

but again. knowledge wouldnt put out a watch if it was ceramic plated.

[chuck]

i love that kid's language.

[travis!]

huh?

[travis!]

chuck.

well i emailed B from crooks to get an actual price.. should get back to me by tomorrow.

[goatfacekillah]

restocked again
just checked now
no size L left
but other sizes are

LOL
this is getting ridiculous

[Lifted.]

lol wowwwww
crooks really kno how to capitalize on their gains

[creep3]

Yeah i spent my money on other tees. This is a no cop for me.

[Jesse10]

yea crooks is getting stupid already..pretty soon these tee's are gonna be just like every other shirt they got

[Sk00tZ]

Wow this is kinda rediculous. This shirt used to have a kind of specialness to it, but now they're just flooding it. I kinda feel dumb for buying it when it first came out.

[Lifted.]

yea it is pretty absurd for them to keep restocking for a 'limited' shirt. but at the same time i cant complain cause its a sick shirt regardless

[Lifted.]

"specialness"=limited
u bought for the wrong reason. hypebeast..

[h.lurker]

"specialness"=limited
u bought for the wrong reason. hypebeast..

Hypebeast or not, Crooks is continually restocking a limited run tee for an additional $10 compared to their other items. They shouldn't label something limited to sell more stock at a higher price. Bad business imo.

Just playing devil's advocate.

[DaVinci]

I still think the original colorways are special, its never been restocked

yea u got a point there. price should not be inflated if they gonna keep restocking.

[UKingdom]

i don't think either brand has enough of a rep or a client base to demand that kind of price for a watch. it crooks and knowledge, not gucci or prada (obviously those brands can demand even more) but $800 ain't cheap, most streetwear peeps aren't copping $800 watches. if they were smart they'd keep it under 500

[verbatim]

Exactly my point H.Lurker, at least there is one that sees the light.....lol!

[SB_Hitikori]

i want it cause its a sick tee lol
just wish i could buy it at a store

[supreme x jdm]

you guys need to just let them do their thing. if they want to add $10 to a limited shirt or keep restocking... then by all means let them.. its all business...

[tommyroks]

i like my shirt alot.

[af1snaikboi]

http://www.crooksncastles.com/shop.php

what a sad hypebeast

[DaVinci]

^what?

[revs boi]

lol at being back up again. I'm glad all those who want one have another chance to cop. I still prefer the original colourway though.

[B.O.W.D.]

Commonwealth DC just got a full size run of the Crooks x Goods Ts in both black and white. If you live in the area come thru.

Commonwealth DC is located at 1781 Florida Ave NW. The phone number to the store is 202-265-1830.

Store hours are 11am - 8pm M-Sat, and 12-6 on Sun.

[supreme x jdm]

looks like they are starting to take off a few of the shirts on their online store.

[goatfacekillah]

at the end of the day
it is a dope shirt
and people keep buying it, so they're gonna keep making it
remember, crooks (just like every other brand) wants to grow into a huge brand...if this shirt is getting hype beyond us at HB, then its a smart business move for them to keep selling it
they've restocked like 8 times....and it keeps selling out
i woulda copped it ages ago if it wasn't $65us to get it to Canada

its the same thing w/ the big face medusa...that was supposed to be a limited release....

[InFaMoUsAiR23]

mine just came in 2 day.........HOTNESS!! its the black one by the way

[sprintr6]

these watches will retail for about 2bills. not too shabby considering what else is out there and the limited nature of this watch.

i've seen the other mhi collab they did in the past and the quality has always been, and continues to be, super on point with the know1edge goods.

still on the fence with this crooks design but the craftsmanship should be stellar as usual.

[creep3]

hmmm its kinda growing on me

[fudatskee]

looks like some knockoff u buy at Chinatown. This watch is for tweens and Asian hypebeasts.

[lazybonejone]

knowledge drops the shittiest watches. this is a blatant rip of the Chancel J12, and I highly doubt the links are ceramic throughout. you are getting metal inlaid in the ceramic which is they only way the can get that 200 price point to stick.
but, whatever, kids will buy anything these days.

[JoJo]

yeah, i wanted that ceramic nixon when it came out but the price was a lil too steep for me so this crooks collabo is gonna be a nice alternative.



You don't even know how much the crooks is gonna be. It's too much of a blatant knockoff for anyone into watches to take this seriously although it looks dope sans the face. If it's with in $300 of the Nixon Player I think it's a no brainer to go with Nixon.

this is coming from a huge crooks fan, that's basically all I rock anymore.

[FearItSelf]

that is all i rock nowadays

The Know1edge booth here in Barcelona also flew in the Know1edge x Crooks & Castles ceramic watches that are due to come out probably around October/November this year. As usual with watches that Know1edge is involved in, the quality and design are 100% on point. That together with the great packaging makes the watch a must have item. Retail price will be around 250 USD.

Check out more pictures after the jump.

It says it's a ceramic watch, but doesn't state whether it's pure ceramic or not. They also say its gunna retail around $250 USD

[creep3]

Yeah i still dont know about this piece. All in all i think i may just end up copping a new nixon.

[chuck]

you are better off with a nixon.

this watch for $250 is going to be garbage.

[Apple Juice]

obviously you don't know anything about watches.

if it is indeed solid ceramic, swiss automatic, then $800 is a plausible estimation.

who doesnt know anything now?

[revs boi]

for the price point, i think they look nice.

[chuck]

obviously you haven't read the thread. if you had, you would see our estimations of the watch before they set the price are pretty accurate when compared to ceramic watches that are already out. don't test me...i work for NIXON and know everything there is to know about watches.

the quality of this watch for $250 can't be even compared to the quality and style next to the ceramic player or the chanel J12. im guessing it's not even swiss made, have 25 jewels, have a Sapphire crystal or even an automatic winding watch. what a waste of good material.

the watch looks good but just doesn't cut it when compared to everything else that is out there.

but thats not suprising considering the price point. Why expect all that from a $250 watch?. Just accept it for what it is.

[chuck]

exactly. if you saw my previous arguments on this watch, then you know why. i AM accepting it for what it is. it is just fun to dissect it and see what comes out of it.

and yes apple juice, i know plenty.

Clearly its no j12. but since my mhiXknowledge watch is swiss made and automatic winding I wouldnt be surprised if this was too.

personally I can afford a j12, i wanted a white ceramic watch, to add to the collection, and I really fuck with knowledge. Doesnt seem like a waste to me.

[travis!]

true that embark.

i had one locked in florida for some good coin. but might wait to see what these are all about before spending that money.

[DeNfAcTa]

what stores are getting the j twizzy? all crooks retailers? only a few?

[LouisWinthorpe]

The white is straight fire ...

[rasclaaat]

saw the samples of both colors and they're both ill to me. i'd cop both given the chance. know1edge is a great company...i think they can rightfully claim most of the cred for this project...just my guess tho

[DeNfAcTa]

if anybody is still looking for a shirt, please get at me.

I am not fealing any of it.

I know freshjive did one, and a couple other brands besides diamond. I'm a huge crooks fan and I'm really only liking the roseary tee, the hoodie, and the sundevils one (only cause im in AZ) the rest to me is kinda |0

[BLowOuT]

Crooks just keep on fallin off

[BLowOuT]

This watch is at the same level as an ecko watch if you don't agree you will agree in a couple of months with the route and design crooks is going. It would be a different story and more of a better crooks watch if they collaborated with rolex now thats a crooks watch i'd buy. Nothing against Know1edge
