Dear Friends,
As we all are individually struggling to comprehend the horrific world events, one thing is clear, we all need to do whatever we can to make our voices louder, and our actions more meaningful to make any difference for innocent victims and their families.
In Larry Hogan’s resignation from Harvard’s fellowship this week, he wrote “The lessons of history are clear: we must all do our part to take a clear stand in the face of genocidal acts against the Jewish people or any group, there is no ‘both sides’ when it comes to the murder, rape, and kidnapping of innocent women and children. I believe very strongly that in this matter there is no room for justification or equivocation.”
So let’s make a clear stand together.
It’s seems almost inconsequential to even send this brief quarterly update. But we have to carry on, do well and help others during this critical time.
Best,
Kirk, Brett and Axcess Family

KEVIN WARREN / PANERAI CHARITY COLLABORATION TO BENEFIT CAROLYN’S COMFORTS
Panerai designed a special watch to showcase details that speak to the history of Kevin Warren, President & CEO of the Chicago Bears, and his extraordinary journey. Panerai and Kevin have worked together to customize 29 distinct Luminor 8 Days GMT, PAM0233 (image and spec linked here), which is Panerai’s very first in-house P.2002/1 caliber and highly sought-after piece by collectors. The PAM0233 was first introduced by Panerai in 2007, and today is discontinued with only these 29 pieces remaining in the world.
In 2014, Kevin’s sister, Caroline Elaine Warren-Knox died of brain cancer. Kevin and his wife Greta created Carolyn’s Comforts and pledged to donate $1M to create an emergency assistance fund in her loving memory.
The partnership culminated with an extraordinary weekend event where Kevin was honored by close friends who purchased the watches at the new St. Regis in Chicago followed by a special day at Soldier Field where the Bears defeated the Raiders.
Panerai has donated a significant portion of proceeds from the sale of each watch directly to Carolyn’s Comforts which has served as an emergency assistance fund.
