Oliver Burnheim, president and general manager of Raymond Weil, as well as Thomas Dotzek, general manager of Al-Futtaim Watches and Jewelery, specially arrived at the opening ceremony of the new boutique, which took place in mid-May. Mr. Bernheim presented to all gathered VIP guests and media representatives a new collection of massive sports watches from the Nabucco line - Nabucco Rivoluzione, made of steel and titanium with a thin black metal coating. For the first time, Nabucco watches were presented in the UAE in the first quarter of last year and literally captivated the local time connoisseurs.
Commenting on the popularity of the Raymond Weil brand in the UAE, Oliver Burnheim noted that “the last thirty years, Raymond Weil has been fruitfully working with Al-Futtaim Watches and Jewelery, making the UAE a key market for the brand. And even despite the current global financial crisis, the UAE offers a stable platform for business expansion. "
Earlier this year, Raymond Weil sponsored one of the UK's most popular cultural events, the BRIT Award. To award the winners of the competition (among whom were Kylie Minogue, James Corden and Matthew Horn), Raymond Weil released a special limited edition series of Don Giovanni Cosi Grande watches, limited to 10 copies.
