1 month later, we had our first draft renderings of our 26 watches representing 6 countries and 12 cities – of which almost 10 piece uniques

When we saw the rendering we were ecstatic – I couldn’t believe that this project was going to happen and Nomos really did it for us. I went to Baselworld to meet with the team and to see their first prototype of the watch – I still remember them asking me: ” Hassan, are you sure this is the Green you want? everyone in the manufacture was starring at this dial, they have never thought Nomos would push its boundaries this far” – it was perfect: the right shade of green that pops, you cannot Not notice it, with a very light yellow font for the cities and the strong Red color for the HomeTown city. The watch was exactly what I have envisioned it in my head 3 months earlier.

6 more months passed by and the watches were ready – I decided to pay Nomos a visit in Glashutte with some of the collectors from the AWC to have a tour of their facilities and finally get to see our watches being assembled and completed.

I won’t tell you the details of how we made it to Glashutte!! just because it was an utter nightmare flying from London on British Airways to reach Berlin only with 6 hours delay and drive to Dresden for another 2.5 hours.

However, we made it , did a tour around the factory, met the watchmaker who assembled all our watches and even had the chance to witness the assembly of the last piece of AWC Nomos.

Since we launched our Laureato yellow edition in 2017 we have received several requests from our ladies club members to create a similar edition for them however using the Laureato Ladies Royale watch instead.

The iconic Laureato collection was chosen to create a 34mm timepiece adorned with 54 diamonds and available in three different versions: full pink gold, two-tone pink gold and steel, and full steel.

The AWC Ladies Limited Edition Laureato is graced with a mesmerizing purple dial that expresses the supreme femininity of Arabian women, while the date is naturally displayed with Arabic numerals.

Bearing the mention Limited Edition and the individual edition number, the case-back is fitted with a transparent sapphire crystal revealing the famous Girard-Perregaux quartz movement.

The latter’s 32,768 Hz oscillation frequency was discovered by the brand in 1971 and has since become the universal industry standard.

The watch is limited to only 8 pieces in the three different material and has been only sold to club members from the Gulf region. It is an extremely limited and unique pieces that we hope we will kick off a long trend of ladies special editions whether from our club side or other clubs that decided to follow our foot steps – what matters is we paved the way for the rest 🙂
