A New Modern Way To Engage With Watchmaking

When Was The Last Time You Bought Something That Was Meaningful To You

I am not talking about anything that gives you joy or some physical benefit. I mean an item that means more than its face value. Something that represents a special part of your life be it a memory, person or event. Something with sentimental value.

Most people nowadays buy things that are in trend. Be it the latest branded bags, designer clothes or some new electronic gadget, constantly chasing the next hot thing, chances are you’ve gone to a party with someone wearing the same. There is nothing wrong with that of course, what you do with your money is your business. However more often than not, these expensive things lose their value over time, becoming nothing more than just another object taking space in your storeroom.

Aries Gold believes that watches are more than just another accessory. They believe that watches should be physical reminders of your celebrations and happy memories.

Fuelled by their passion and heritage in watchmaking, the Aries Gold team rebranded as AG Collective with a new line of dive watches, The Great White.

What’s offered by the existing watch industry nowadays is extremely polarized between astronomically priced brands clinging on to antiquated associations with aviation, horses & hounds or cheap, mass-produced pieces expertly repackaged as the “trending collaboration”, the “limited edition that never runs out” or the “iconic classic must-have”.

There was never a balance between accessibility and personalisation, let alone a watch that truly made with meaning right here in Singapore.

Storytelling is an integral process behind every collaboration, we’ve partnered with a rock stars specializing in repurposing rock music, Foo Fighters and Aerosmith; a marriage between style and cultural intrigue. We got world famous boxing icon Rocky Balboa to lay down his usual sports imagery and translate their movements into the form of a timepiece.

The Perfect Canvas for bringing YOUR STORY to life.

AG Collective believes in doing things differently in 3 ways

Personalisation

Each watch allows for personalisation of the watch dial with text or pictures.

Text or pictures can also be added to the glass case back as well.

This personalisation allows the watches to add significance to gifting for events like anniversaries, graduations, and other milestones.

Something to think about

Imagine if your misplaced your phone, and along with it goes all the pictures and videos that was not uploaded to a cloud. How much money would you spend to recover the years of memories and experiences you captured in your gallery?

The moments we capture with our phones are really precious to us and many would argue they are worth much more than the phone itself. How much do your memories mean to you?

Immoralise that special moment with a physical reminder that can be worn everyday.
