Yeslam Watches - A Luxury Brand of Watches from Osama Bin Laden’s Brother
Who would not know Osama Bin Laden? If this name is notorious enough to send terror to your nerves, you would be surprised to know that the popular Yeslam brand is founded by this man’s estranged brother. It’s a Swiss luxury brand which happens to create one of the best flight watches aptly called the Aviator.
Yeslam studied at the University of Southern California and is now living in Switzerland. To date, he stated that he no longer has any communication or relation with her brother for decades.
The Inspiration behind the Yeslam Aviator has an interesting story. This watch’s function and design was inspired by the death of the Bin Laden’s father in the year 1967. Their father died during a plane crash in the country of Saudi Arabia.
The Aviator line from Yeslam is quite impressive. It is the first mechanical time piece that will allow owners to calculate true air speed.
