I have been a fan of the Railroad Spike collection from Giles & Brother since the brand first emerged on the scene. I have not yet wrapped one around my wrist but that may soon change with their new partnership with Liberty United. The Liberty United brand was first founded to try to reduce illegal firearms in Africa through partnerships with local governments; together they have collected weapons and melted them down into accessories. So now the Railroad spike has more meaning and, the cool bit, the serial number of the gun that was melted down to make it. I love this because it makes the piece even more graphic; I love typography. NB 25% of the proceeds go toward funding anti-gun violence groups in the USA.
I will be ordering mine in blackened steel with gold. $745 USD. How about you?
