OMEGA celebrates its long time
involvements in Ladies Watches with 'A Century of Fine Ladies
Timepieces' exhibition in ION Orchard Singapore. The exhibition is at
the ground floor atrium of ION Orchard from 5 to 13 July and opens daily
from 11am to 9pm.
Within the exhibition,
will feature many Ladies' museum pieces from 1921 till the new
collections. Some of those pieces have not left the museum before and
have made its way for the show.
For myself, I
discovered that OMEGA had already made some stunning jewelery pieces a
long time ago! So OMEGA has never forgotten about the Ladies.
If
you are in Singapore, please drop by to view some spectacular vintage
pieces. For lovers of OMEGA vintage pieces, you may be able to meet Mr
Petros Protopapas, OMEGA Museum Manager and ask him any questions of
your vintage pieces.
