Legendary singer, songwriter, actor and activist Sting is one of the most recognizable musicians in the world. On his own and as a member of The Police, Sting has received sixteen Grammy Awards, plus a Golden Globe, an Emmy and several Oscar nominations. This globe-trotting rocker is a member of both the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame.
With a career that has taken him around the world many times, it is not surprising that Sting occasionally loses track of the time. Once, while playing a concert in California, Sting glanced down at his watch and tried to calculate the time difference to London. It was only when he realized that it was already eight hours later in London, that he knew he had forgotten his own birthday.
After his October 19th 2004 “Sacred Love” concert , Sting was presented with a special, handmade, limited edition, Gevril Avenue of Americas GMT Power Reserve timepiece with dual time zones.
Wherever Sting’s travels take him, he’ll never need to worry about forgetting his birthday again. In its own way, the massive 18K rose gold Avenue of Americas timepiece is a superstar as well. This special limited edition dual time zone watch is one of the finest timepieces ever made and has long been a favorite of celebrities. On stage and off, this Swiss made performer seems right at home on the wrist of the one and only Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner.
