Today Leopine is the synonym for apparel for watch lovers and crazy watch collectors. What first started with a line of swim trunks and afterward socks, is now a powerhouse that delivers limited edition runs of swimwear, socks, pocket squares, and now t-shirts. All inspired by the world of watches as one of his founders has been totally immersed in the watch industry, their latest release pays homage to one of the greatest watches of all time. With sales now in more than 30 countries, there is no savvy watch collector out there that is not sporting their apparel in the fanciest beaches around the world.

For their first time venturing into t-shirts, Leopine —straight from Barcelona by way of Portugal— has just released their latest creation, the GMT Airlines shirt. Sporting a vintage illustration of the PanAm Airways logo over a Pepsi GMT Master bezel, the execution is simply flawless. With the words “Made for Pilots, enjoyed by few”, Leopine honors our favorite dual time zone watch, the Rolex GMT-Master Pepsi.

The commercial aviation golden era was characterized by this exceptional watch. When you think about the Rolex GMT Master Pepsi, you think about Pan American Airways. The Rolex GMT Master was designed in collaboration with PanAm Airways and first released under reference 6542 back in 1954 and produced until 1959 when the reference 1675 replaced it. An ‘Albino’ —white dial— version of the GMT Master ref. 6542 was made exclusively available to PanAm pilots and today those few examples are highly coveted, extremely rare, and commanding astronomical prices at auction.

Designed in Barcelona, Spain, and produced in Portugal with the highest quality cotton, this Leopine GMT Airlines t-shirt is a must-have if you’re stuck in the golden era of commercial aviation or if you are an absolute ‘fanboy’ of the GMT Master Pepsi. Bearing a small GMT Airlines Leopine Logo on the front and a gorgeous illustration of a jetliner flying over the clouds with a GMT Master with PanAm logo on the background, this is for sure one of our favorite releases by Leopine.

Unique looking, nicely designed, and a must-have if you wear a vintage or modern Rolex GMT Master Pepsi on your wrist. Kudos to our friends at Leopine for becoming such a hot item in such a short period of time. Additionally, check out their first t-shirt launched to match the latest Genta Lovers III swim trunks.
