In this exhibition we will introduce all Panerai enthusiasts to new watches. These have been designed and crafted to demonstrate how the brand interprets the relationship with its own history, while remaining contemporary and suitable for the distinct tastes and personalities of our Saudi customers, without compromising its distinctive and strong identity.”
“KSA is a strategic market for us within the region and holds a special significance because of its dynamic consumer canvas. It is important for us to maintain a strong presence in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This is why we saw in SDGC an opportunity to bring us closer to our clientele and allow us to further express our commitment to the culture of fine watchmaking in the region,” he added.
