Gucci Timepiece & Jewelry and Tourneau Grammy Traveling Exhibit.

Gucci Timepieces & Jewelry and Tourneau are proud to celebrate the three-year partnership between Gucci and The Recording Academy® by launching the Gucci GRAMMY® Traveling Exhibit in the Americas at Tourneau Time Machine. First unveiled at Baselworld 2011 and following the successful launch of the GRAMMY® Special Edition timepiece and jewelry collection, the GRAMMY Traveling Exhibit includes information on the preservation program, interactive features and items from the GRAMMY Museum®.

The GRAMMY Museum at L.A. Live is leading the effort in assessing a Muzak archive that was recently discovered in a warehouse in South Carolina. The archives included more than 20,000 never-released master recordings of American music dating back to 1934, from jazz to early spiritual. Gucci Timepieces & Jewelry is the first partner to help the GRAMMY Museum support the preservation of this historical musical discovery. The effort will be focused on determining the best way to house, digitize and ultimately release the collection to the public.

 

The GRAMMY® Special Edition timepiece and jewelry collection is available at Tourneau Time Machine.
