Pete Wentz Adds Watch Designer to Ever-Growing Resume

I Like It I Don't Like It
Dudes, Pete Wentz is a BASSIST, okay, though that’s easy to… let’s not say forget… maybe… temporarily lose sight of as he picks up a full-time job’s worth of side gigs, from salon owner to Op model to FNMTV host to dad, and, most recently, watch designer; Pete’s one of several celebs — including Nikki Sixx, Angels and Airwaves, Silversun Pickups, and Tristan Prettyman, tapped to create limited-edition watches for Nixon’s new LTD Collection. Each artist drew directly onto a large piece of maple wood, which was then used to create several individually numbered watches, the proceeds of which all benefit charity.

We’re partial to Pete’s watch, pictured above — it’s available at Barneys, retails for $500, and like all of the collection, benefits the MusiCares MAP Fund and The Tony Hawk Foundation — because we’re basically on the same payroll, but check out the watches designed by Nikki Sixx and Angels and Airwaves, because those are sweet too.

Find out more at nixonnow.com, and watch “A Little Less Sixteen Candles, A Little More Touch Me” — that “I set my clocks early ’cause I know I’m always late” line takes on renewed meaning.
