Every year, the "Premium Watch Expo" unveils the year's new products. This year's exhibition, themed "An Energizing Watch Life," will feature a mix of men's and women's models, proposing ways to enjoy watches that fit your lifestyle.
Since its renovation in 2020, the Watch Gallery has further expanded its selection of women's watches, further conveying the appeal of timepieces. This time, we have planned an event with the hope that by looking at visually pleasing watches, you will feel even a little brighter during this COVID-19 pandemic, and will introduce the various appeals of watches under four themes: "Changeable watches", "Modern watches", "Watch specifications and use", and "Watches and SDGs".
■Introducing the appeal of watches through four themes
○Changeable watches
The world of ladies' watches has seen a wide variety of variations over the past few years, with beautiful jewellery, unique designs and practical mechanisms. We will introduce timepieces that will add colour to your daily life, both on and off the job.
The Graff Spiral Watch by Graff, 2.35 million yen
○ Modern watches
With the trend towards genderless watches, slightly larger boys' sizes are popular. In addition to the size, there are also women's models with vibrant colours.
Breguet "Marine 5517" 2,068,000 yen
○ Watch specifications and use
From the perspective of watches that can be used for a long time, we introduce a wide variety of models, including mechanical watches, chronographs, calendars, and diver's models that boast high water resistance.
Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra (top) Pale Pink 1,111,000 yen, (bottom) Nude 1,859,000 yen
○ SDGs and Watches
The world of mechanical watches that can be passed down from parent to child and enjoyed for a long time is one of the goals of the SDGs. We introduce a variety of activities that deepen human bonds through watches and protect the future of the planet, such as ethical creations using discarded materials, the pursuit of traceability from resource procurement to distribution, and charities that support people around the world.
