This week, I’m thrilled to share with you a piece of good news (unless of course, you’re a competitor). Here’s a clue: Munich, Budapest, Athens, Ljubljana, Vienna and Rome. No, it’s not my mid-year European travel itinerary, although I could sure do with a nice long continental break from typing out reports, filing them, proofreading and getting the boss’ coffee – you get my drift. The truth is, following on from a successful Inhorgenta Munich Watch Fair, Aries Gold has now expanded our global footprint to Germany, Hungary, Greece, Slovenia, Austria and Italy. That means our dearest fans now have even more outlet options to select from, whether on your travels or if you’re lucky enough, in your homeland. Also, *drumrolls*

It also means we’re a step closer to our vision of providing great timepieces at accessible prices to the entire world – by which time we hope your Aries Gold timepiece will have appreciated in value as a cult classic. Well, a man can dream, can he not? Particularly for fans in Vienna, one of our branches is also relocating to a brand new district, so keep your eyes peeled for some reopening exclusives.

In typical Singaporean fashion, I’d like to remind you that you should check out last week’s blog post in case you have become an unknowing victim of Aries Gold counterfeits. Just like with exams here, it’s always good to check it once, and then twice. The kiasu spirit is still strong. To make sure that you have bought a real Aries Gold watch, visit store locator page for a listing of our authorised distributors and sellers.

Before you go, mark your calendar for we are conquering more ground as Singapore’s sole surviving watchmaker at Basel World 2017! Look out for us at Hall 4.0, Booth No. D14. between 23 March to 30 March, and you might just score a cheese fondue or two. See you soon!
