Watches, you name it they are the type of things that tell you time and make you look good in that suit.

well some do and some don't my point is that they are still awesome. If you've ever seen "The Real World" early on this season then you know of  you Nate. The typical college Frat boy who is usually known on campus for nothing more than being a Frat. That all change when Nate began having the passion to do something more than just doing business. In his mind he envisioned of doing more than just work but giving back with a reason and so Flex was born. In a small bar Nate met up with  Trevor Jones and Travis Lubinsky to begin Flex. based in San Diego,California, Flex has not just grown to become a typical watch company but a hierarchy in fashion that gives back. The moto, "10 colors | 10 charities | 10 percent." Each watch has a different meaning,The company sells 10 different color watches each representing 10 different charities that gain 10 percent of the company’s net profits for various causes that include breast cancer, suicide prevention and Hurricane Katrina survivors, among others."Their most important goal is to raise awareness for the charities they are paired up with. The company organizes local events and national events, gets their products out to local retailers, and relies on campus representatives to spread the word,” Alyssa Avallone, the Drexel University representative for Flex Watches, said.“Flex watches are silicone watches with interchangeable faces and bands,” Avallone said. The colors, which include orange, black, green, etc., are bright and vibrant in order to grab the attention of others. This opens up the opportunity to explain that each watch stands for a good cause and not just a fashionable accessory.

If you decide to purchase the blue watch, that particular color is associated with Nika Water. According to the Flex Watches website, “Nika Water strives to end the cycle of poverty and create awareness and knowledge to get people involved in bringing clean water to poverty-stricken countries (the Triangle).”
  As the company continues it still strives to raise awareness to areas in life that need not to be ignored so giving back, while helping others.
