David Yurman, the American designer jewelry company, recently announced a partnership with the Academy Award-winning director Jimmy Chin. Chin is also known for his other occupations including being a professional mountain climber and a famed [National Geographic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mens-jewelry-brand) photographer.

The partnerships include a social media campaign titled '48 Hours in Nicaragua with Jimmy Chin' and show Jimmy accompanied by writer and Patagonia's first staff photographer Jeff Jonson on a Central American surfing trip. The social media campaign features still-life, organic, behind-the-scenes imagery of the pair as they travel along the coast wearing the brand's [luxury jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/serpenti-line).

The 48 Hours in Nicaragua with Jimmy Chin will debut on David Yurman's social media channels and on its website in August 2019.
