Opportunity LOL Reviews: Vannen Series 2 Limited Edition Watches

Excuse me, do you happen to know the time? If you're THAT person then it's time you invested in a watch, but not just any watch. You want something that represents your interests, your sense of style, doesn't break the bank, and promotes conversation. The solution to your time issues is Vannen Watches! An innovative contemporary brand combining art and fashion in ways you've only dreamed about. This review showcases Vannen's 4 limited edition series 2 watches, featuring the art of Bigfoot, Blaine Fontana, Thomas Han and Travis Lampe. With 500 of each watch in existence, you can purchase one for only $65. Functional high quality works of art don't come this affordable!

Blaine Fontana

I have been a hard core Blaine Fontana fan for a long time now, a wall in the Opp LOL offices even showcase one of his original panda sketches from 2006! His funky "Growth Patterns" Vannen watch is to be worn by people in the know. With its urban contemporary design, your only regret will be you can't showcase the well done box the same time you're wearing the watch out on the town. That is if you're willing to let it leave your treasured display case! If you're not already following the artist on all of your social media networks, then here's his Facebook and Twitter links. Side note, if you haven't experienced Blaine's wood sculptures, you're missing out! Find links to all of his work on his website and see what are he has available to purchase from his store.

Travis Lampe

Even though Opportunity LOL gets incredible epically awesome things to review (like Vannen watches), sometimes we get envious when we see things we really want to review on the site but haven't yet. Case in point: Travis Lampe's baller blind box Tear Drips for sale from his online store. Any classic cartoon fans out there? If you're jumping up and down raising your hand then Travis Lampe's "Songs for Baby Hydras" Vannen Watch belongs on your wrist! This watch has an old time feel featuring ironic elbow less characters, a great buy for any Lampe fan. You can suscribe to his mailing list and follow him on Twitter and Facebook to find out about his latest work.

Bigfoot

Get ready everybody, Bigfoot's in the house! To tell you I had a dork-out when I opened up Bigfoot's "100,000 Years" Vannen Watch would be an understatement. You see, last winter I purchased a pair of limited edition Bigfoot gloves. So now my watch matches my killer winter gloves, who can say that? A perfect match for the nature lover, I'm a huge fan of the artist! I currently have my eye on his Limited Edition Customized Art Skateboard Deck, you know because I need a matching Bigfoot board too! Find out about all the latest Bigfoot sitings on Facebook and Twitter.

Thomas Han

Have you heard of a "Tradigital" process of art? Utilized by the incredibly insightful artist Thomas Han, studying his art is an in depth look into human frailties. Take for instance his incredible "Pill Finder" Vannen Watch. I am still in awe I have this watch to call my own, few pieces of art speak this loudly about serious issues facing society without using words. Somehow comforting with its cutesy edge, you should look into purchasing some of his original art online. Some of his prints haven't sold out yet! You can see what Han has going on over on MySpace and DeviantArt.

In Swedish, the word Vannen loosely means friend. That makes sense since when you purchase a Vannen Watch your funds go towards supporting working artists. Vannen said it best, "Your investment is also felt directly by the artists, and you become part of the cycle of friends supporting friends." Founded by David Stowe in 2009, we're proud to feature a company that represents the root of Opportunity LOL's passion for bringing fans the best of the best in the art world. Follow Vannen on Facebook, Twitter, and Myspace to find out about all their latest releases!
