The Academie Horlogere des Createurs Independants (AHCI) - is an assembly of independent watchmakers created to preserve the pure art and craft of mechanical watch-making.
Three of their revered brethen - Philippe Dufour, Vianney Halter and Peter Speak-Marin will be showcasing several of their newest as well as their most respected pieces in Singapore at the Millennia Walk Atrium from Friday 19th May for two days.
The event is hosted by The Hour Glass which organised the Bangkok (15 – 16 May), Kuala Lumpur (17-18 May) and Singapore (19 – 20 May) tour by these three masters.
The timepieces on display amongst others will include the Simplicity by Dufour, the Classic, Antiqua and Trio by Halter and the Piccadilly by Speake-Marin.
For those who truly enjoy high horology, the exhibition is a must. If you are fortunate enough to be in Singapore this weekend, go see the collection at the Atrium from this Friday evening. You may just get the opportunity to see and speak to these three venerable masters of Swiss Horology as well as admire their watchpieces on display.
If you cannot be at the exhibition - come back in about a week or two as I am planning to publish a detailed report of the event as well as detailed photographs of the wonderful timepieces.
