TI's AKOO Tells Time With G-Shock

After spending 9 months in jail, TI is wasting no time getting back to work with his clothing line AKOO.

In the middle of March AKOO will be releasing a limited edition signature chronograph watch with G-Shock.

AKOO co-founder Jason Geter says TI’s “prison time is definitely a challenge in trying to build our brand right now. But so is the celebrity thing, and that├óΓé¼Γäós what we tried to address from the start. In this space you have the gift and the curse of being yet another artist-driven fashion brand. There├óΓé¼Γäós so much of that, people expect it to fizzle out quickly, so we are killing that idea with quality.├óΓé¼┬¥

Only 1,000 of the purple and gold accented watches are being released and will retail for $180.
