Press Release, 16th March 2009 – Hublot today inaugurated a new boutique on a small tropical paradise in the Indian Ocean. The watchmaking brand has opened a shop within the brand new luxury hotel complex of the Four Seasons Resort Mauritius, at Anahita.

The boutique is managed by Bijem, the retailer – a Hublot partner for the last 10 years. At a crossroads of continents, Mauritius serves a clientèle from Europe, South Africa, the Middle-East, Russia and Asia, made up of clients who love novelty and comfort, exclusivity, sport and refinement. The brand new Four Seasons hotel nests in luxuriant vegetation on the edge of the turquoise lagoon, just opposite the Ile aux Cerfs, acknowledged as one of the most beautiful islands on Earth. It offers its guests a welcome and facilities of the highest standing. It is in this prestigious environment that as of today Hublot has an exclusive boutique, and what’s more at the water’s edge!

This has been achieved thanks to the cooperation with Bijem, the jeweller who started a trade in high-quality jewellery on the island in 1998, and who has been representing Hublot – the only watchmaking brand of his shop for 10 years. He is now manager of the Hublot boutique in these enchanting surroundings, and offers a range of models from the Big Bang collections: chronograph or tourbillon, for diving or for the evening, set and coloured, in red gold, platinum, tantalum, rubber or ceramics, in keeping with the Art of Fusion spirit, so important to the brand.

As a graphic designer, I'm fascinated by the crossroads between technology and aesthetics. Horology is one of these crafts, where art and engineering come together to produce mechanical wonders that grace the eye. WatchPaper was born from the desire to create an online tool where I can share my passion for watches.
