Cartier, Shape Your Time in Singapore - 24th May to 25th May 2014
Cartier, Shape Your Time, a
dedicated event to men, will showcase some Cartier's iconic pieces, a
revisit of history of Cartier's watchmaking achievements from 1904, a
glimpse of the Maison's capabilites and also to launch the new Calibre
de Cartier Diver Collection.
More than 50 pieces of some contemporary pieces from the range of Santos de Cartier, Tank, Ballon Bleu de Cartier, Calibre de Cartier and Fine Watchmaking creations will be displayed. The event is located at Civic Plaza - Ngee Ann City, open for public viewing from 24 to 25 May, 11am to 8pm.
Besides the timepieces, Cartier asked Rafael de Cardenas, one of New York’s top architects to design the interiors of the event to represent a specific aspects of the icons - like a propeller suspended at the Santos venue to represent the Maison’s link with Alberto Santos-Dumont the aviator, straight lines of the Roman numerals to recall Tank’s design codes, a sapphire blue cabochon at the Ballon Bleu area to emphasize the crown design. State-of-art set up like interactive books, touch screens, 3D screen and simulation videos also spread out in the event-hall for visitors to discover more about the innovative stories of the maison.
