More than 180 world-class timepiece brands are gathering together at the Siam Paragon Watch Expo 2021 to showcase their latest designs and innovations under the theme Precious Time Together until July 11.
This year, Franck Muller presents the Double Mystery model, with an 18k white gold casing decorated with sapphires, rubies, tsavorites and diamond baguettes that comes in red and blue crocodile leather to give a classic look, while Breitling launches the Super Chronomat collection with a 44mm case. The elegant yet sleek all-purpose sports watch boasts a stainless-steel bezel with a ceramic insert -- a first on a Chronomat -- plus the choice of a Rouleaux-inspired rubber strap or the iconic metal one with a butterfly clasp. The new rubber strap is created with state-of-the-art injection moulding techniques to create remarkable depth.
"As the No.1 watch destination for watch lovers, we have gathered every leading brand from every corner of the world. On display are over 10,000 new timepiece collections, both in the luxury and trendy groups so that all types of collectors and watch enthusiasts can update on the new trends and experience the superior functions of these innovative timepieces. All nine branches of Watch Galleria in The Mall Group are also offering the special promotions of the year," stated Wipa Umphuj, vice-president of speciality business at Siam Paragon Retail.
Other highlights include the limited-edition Grand Seiko SLGH007 timepiece with a large tree and annual rings that reveal its age that marks Grand Seiko's 140-year anniversary; and the limited edition of the Monaco Grand Prix de Monaco Historique watch by Tag Heuer produced in 1,000 pieces to celebrate the classic race car.
Also on view is the iconic Longines Legend Diver watch from the Heritage collection that mingles the classic design that is now water resistant, up to a 300m, with automatic mechanical movements and signature silicon balance springs.
The event also displayed a special collection of timepieces that reflect the identity and lifestyle of brand ambassadors such as Sukollawat Kanarot, Mario Maurer and Cindy Sirinya Bishop.
