With day on a Geneva Watch round the corner, it’s very understandable that most brands put novelty under the cover. At the same time, I thought it would be the right moment to release something yourself to restart after summer vacation. But Dennison DateNight is just one of two collaborations of this week’s choice. Another thing is to thank American rapper Action Bronson. Discover them all and enjoy reading!
