Japanese streetwear label GOD SELECTION XXX worked in collaboration with [Rolex](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/daydate) -- the duo took [vintage luxury timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/timepiece-vault) and gave them new interpretations to be showcased. The reworked watches are on display at I.T Hong Kong and the exhibition features a plethora of signature timepieces. This includes the Daytona, the Explorers I and II, the Day-Date, Sea-Dweller, Submariner, GMT-Master and the Oyster Perpetual.

The [collaborative show](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/phantaci-x-undefeated) puts the spotlight on one particular watch, the Rolex Daytona, that is crafted from18k yellow gold and complete with a matching yellow gold wristband that was drawn from 1989.
