The exclusive brand outlet houses the label’s signature watch collections as well as boutique exclusive editions such as the Portugieser Perpetual Calendar and the Portugieser Chronograph. The 40 square metre shop is designed to give IWC Schaffhausen a presence in “the financial capital of India” and enable it to connect with shoppers in person.
“We have enjoyed a long-standing relationship with IWC Schaffhausen, and the opening of this new boutique further strengthens our association. Jio World Plaza is the city’s ultimate luxury destination, and we are delighted to bring the discerning customer an elevated shopping experience as they discover the world of IWC Schaffhausen,” said Art of Time’s directors Gaurav Bhatia and Bharat Kapoor.
