PRESS RELEASE: CVSTOS Challenge Jet-Liner Inkvaders Skull Limited Edition.


The edition of 100 pieces in black steel with titanium components was created in collaboration with Christian Nguyen, tattoo artist and founder of the "Inkvaders" Studio that gives the limited series its name. Temporary resident of other studios during his travels around the world, Christian Nguyen places the skull in the center of his artistic universe.


Produced based on a handmade drawing, the skull dial was polished to reveal all the complexity and details; the movement coated with black PVD perfectly highlights this beautiful dial.

Born in Geneva, multi-talented artist, designer and musician, Christian Nguyen is particularly recognized for his artistic tattoo work. Fascinated by tattoos since young, his professional career began in 1992. Regularly traveling around the world, he has developed a strong base of fans in Denmark, France, Holland, Japan and the USA. Christian’s diverse and faithful clients are friends from varied worlds of sports and music; Yvan Muller (4 WTCC titles), Goran Bezina (NHL and Hockey Switzerland) and Romain di Marchi (freestyle snowborder), Fred Durst, Wes Borland and John Otto (Limp Bizkit), Danny Boy, Everlast (House of Pain, La Coka Nostra), DJ Naughty J (Suprême NTM) or DJ Remady and DJ Lethal, amongst others.
