The other day,Hamilton, Hamilton.Ventura" is a famous watch that represents the "Ventura" brand. More than half a century after its birth, "# Ventura_is_Yours", a live event focusing on this watch, was held in June. The venue was WWWX, a spot on Spain Slope in Shibuya, Tokyo. Here we would like to take a look back at the event with special video footage.

The artists performing are three unique groups with hip-hop as a common denominator.

The three MC's, KID FRESINO with his impressive lyrics and rhythms, SANABAGUN. with its jazz elements, and MGF, a crew of three MCs previously featured in HOUYHNHNM's. In addition to their own songs, they were also surprised to perform a cover song of Elvis Presley, who was known to have used "Ventura" for both his public and private life. In addition to the songs of each group, a surprise song was prepared in honor of Elvis Presley, who is also known for his public and private use of "Ventura", and a cover song of his was also performed.


First up was SANABAGUN. . The performance was full of entertainment that captured the hearts of the audience, interspersed with "Can't Help Falling In Love," a classic ballad that is indispensable in the Presley story.

Next up was MGF, who performed not only their own song, but also "Blue Hawaii," which they had prepared for the occasion. It was a special song sampling the theme song from the movie "Blue Hawaii" (1961), for which Presley famously wore a "Ventura".

The last performer was KID FRESINO, who performed "Coincidence" and "Arcades (feat. NENE)," songs from his album "ai qing" released last year, as well as "Salve" with his close friend JJJ.

About 500 people attended the event, including fans of each artist, "Ventura" lovers, and people in the fashion industry. Among them were Mendy Sekiguchi of EXILE, Daisuke Ohana, designer of "N. Hollywood," and Motoshi "POGGY" Ogi, director of "United Arrows & Sons. The performers and the audience were close to each other at WWWX, creating a unique atmosphere unique to this small venue.

A new sense of value for "Ventura" that differs from the conventional wisdom. It was a special night to discover the charm of this watch, which is more than just a piece to know the time.
