OMEGA unveiled its new Aqua Terra 30 mm collection at Shogunzuka Seiryuden, situated in the mountains overlooking Japan's cultural capital, Kyoto. The event marked a significant expansion of OMEGA’s celebrated Aqua Terra collection.
An Evening of Discovery
The evening began with guests gathering on the venue’s observation deck as twilight descended over Kyoto's ancient skyline. OMEGA President and CEO Raynald Aeschlimann welcomed attendees, highlighting the collection's significance. "We've created timepieces that transition effortlessly from day to night, complementing any outfit or occasion while maintaining the highest technical standards,” Aeschlimann noted. "This collection represents our response to the growing demand for versatile watches, all at a smaller scale."
Secrets Revealed
As night fell over Kyoto, guests embarked on a sensory journey through cascading voile screens, which created passages of discovery, gradually revealing the collection's twelve distinct expressions, unveiling the "my little secret" campaign theme.
Throughout the evening, guests engaged with a series of interactive installations that blended traditional Japanese artistry with contemporary expression, from confessional-style photo booths to live Shodo calligraphy demonstrations.
