With the rollout of vaccine inoculations throughout the archipelago, we are hopefully on our way to lowering the transmission of the COVID-19 virus. Bearing this in mind, let us all continue to follow safety protocols and remain vigilant during this time.
Having said this, we now present you with our second edition of The Time Place magazine for 2021. On our cover is the new Rolex Oyster Perpetual Explorer in yellow Rolesor. Find out more about this timepiece in our cover story entitled “Worldly Instruments.”
Apart from this distinct offering, we also encourage you to discover the novelties introduced during Watches and Wonders 2021 in our special report. Given the travel restrictions and difficulties during this pandemic, we greatly appreciate the efforts made by all the brands to adapt various digital initiatives for their presentations during the virtual event.
For Reborn, we delve deeper into IWC’s Pilot’s Watch tradition and the direction it’s currently taking. In our Interview section, we were privileged to speak with Zenith Product Development & Heritage Director, Romain Marietta, on the brand’s 2021 novelties; Piaget Head of Watch Marketing, Antoine Martin, on Piaget’s marketing activities and the Piaget Polo Skeleton; Chopard Ambassadress, Julia Roberts, on her definition of happiness and the Happy Diamonds campaign; and Longines’ Ambassador of Elegance, Jung Woo Sung, on his career and relationship with Longines.
Lastly, we put the spotlight on the latest collections from the #TIMEFASHION brands and explore art, travel and motoring in our High Living section.
