From Waste to Wrist: Flex Watches’ Eco-Friendly Ocean Plastic Timepiece
Published Sun, 24 Nov 2024 20:16:29 GMT
For many people, watches are status symbols that speak volumes about who they are and what they can afford. Travis Lubinsky, the entrepreneur and founder behind Flex Watches, views watches as a different type of status symbol. In his case, your watch isn’t a reflection of your earnings but rather of your enlightenment. Specifically, your dedication to the environment and commitment to purposeful change.Travis, who once appeared on CNBC’s The Profit and was mentored by Shark Tank‘s Daymond John, has an impressive track record. In addition to creating a million-dollar watch brand, he’s partnered with global giants, including Star Wars, Minions, and WWE. He’s also been recognized for his talent, appearing on MTV’s The Real World, and has collaborated with the retail giants Champs and Zappos.However, with the fashion industry increasingly valuing sustainability and purpose, it is his trailblazing watch brand that has captured the industry’s and the public’s imagi...Best RTP Slots Online – Play the Highest-Paying Slot Games with 98%+ RTP Rates

Here’s how the Pac-12 kept crumbling

Half of the Pac-12’s four remaining teams defected Friday as Stanford and Cal, along with Southern Methodist, accepted invitations to the Atlantic Coast Conference.There will be plenty of challenges ahead for the Bay Area schools, which will join the Charlotte-based league beginning in the 2024-25 school year. The biggest issue on the table is travel back and forth to a conference where the nearest school prior to Friday was Louisville. (Now, that title will belong to SMU, which is based in Dallas.)The ACC on Friday outlined some plans to mitigate that issue, including the possibility of hosting a number of neutral-site events at the Texas school.Another significant hurdle facing Cal in particular is the financial component of all this travel, especially considering that the Bears and Cardinal will be giving back some media revenue (the amount will diminish over the years) to the ACC as part of their agreement.
