One Infinite Summer

Charriol Saint-Tropez Collection

People love the sparkling, sun-drenched port of St. Tropez for all the obvious reasons – the chic sauntering visitors, the incredible light, the clear Mediterranean, the smell of lavender, the beautiful bodies. It’s probably the most glamorous Riviera destination that’s still a little bohemian; wild, mysterious and exotic — much like veteran Swiss watch manufacturer Charriol’s St-Tropez Infinite Summer collection. 

On October 12, Stores Specialists, Inc. (SSI) and Charriol will host an exclusive, one-night only event to celebrate the collection. No less than French entrepreneur Philippe Charriol and his son Alexander Charriol will fly to Manila to grace this momentous event. Also joining the event is famous French singer Antoine Debarge who sung the brand’s new soundtrack entitled, Hey, Charriol, and who is also set to perform live during the affair.

The new collection comprises models adorned with diamonds set in mother-of-pearl, a first in the Charriol range. Dubbed as summer’s ‘It’ watch, the St-Tropez Infinite Summer jewelry watch has a cable bracelet and adjustable chain that shines beneath an unusual sapphire crystal.

Thanks to its sophisticated case construction, the latter covers not only the dial but also the bezel. Behind this show window, the hour and minute hands sweep across the mother-of-pearl dial base embellished by its sunburst motif, which features beams radiating out from the small seconds sub-dial.

  

The collection also features innovative cable motif rubber straps in black or white which afford a casual touch and is destined to appeal to younger wearers. Imbued with a truly refreshing appeal, its 30 mm-diameter cases come in natural steel; pink gold-plated or yellow gold-plated versions with white or black mother-of-pearl bezels, polished or set with diamonds.

 

In the Philippines, Charriol is exclusively distributed by Stores Specialists, Inc. (SSI) with shops located at Greenbelt 4, Power Plant Mall, Rustan’s Makati, Rustan’s Tower, Gateway Mall, SM Mall of Asia, 158 Designers’ Boulevard Alabang Town Center, TriNoma, Robinsons Midtown, Newport Resorts World, The Podium, Rustan’s Ayala Cebu, Abreeza Davao and Limketkai Cagayan de Oro.
