04-02-2009 J.Biz Kobe Bryant arguably the best basketball player on the globe finally
has his own watch. Kobe collaborates with high end Swiss watchmaker
Nubeo to create The Back Mamba. The timepiece is rubber, ceramic and
grade 5 titanium.
The watch properly reflects the many
portions of his being, including sporty, sophisticated and masculine.
The three color selections are sporty orange, whiskey colored sapphire
sophisticated and black masculine.
Nubeo thinks very highly of
Bryant stating, ”We at Nubeo recognize the Black Mamba as a symbol of a
true superhero:
a mythical, ever- surviving image of ancient Greece. Kobe is our modern
day version of that classical hero.” So much so they created 2 versions
of The Black Mamba; The Black Mamba Ultimate and The Black Mamba MVP.
240 of the Ultimate will be made and only 24 MVP's will be made based
on Kobe's jersey number. Sounds like these are gonna be priced for a
whole different kind of baller.
