Indeed, all eyes were on Ms. Kim as she took in Roger Dubuis’ passionate creations. Svelte and sensuous, perfectly mirroring the Maison’s ladies’ collection, Ms. Kim was a true personification of the lush and precious Velvet Collection. As Mr. Alvaro Maggini, the Creative Director of Roger Dubuis explains, ‘Velvet is an anthem of praise to voluptuously feminine charm and an expression of discreet yet genuine luxury enhanced with a dash of daring spirit.’
Ms. Kim, being the perfect muse, earned her reputation as a respected icon in her career. Her cinematic success at home in turn heralded her roles in Chinese martial arts fantasy movie Bichunmoo in 2000, and The Myth with Jackie Chan in 2006, a big-budget feature film shot in China, Hong Kong and India – thus, this daring diva who is always looking for challenges has drawn all eyes across Asia.

Crafted from white gold, this timepiece is a testament to Roger Dubuis’ savoir-faire. A symbol of technical alchemy and aesthetic ingenuity, putting the glittering Korean Diva firmly in the spotlight. Ms. Kim and Velvet High Jewellry timepiece signifies the alliance of sophistication and divine beauty. The triumph of compelling glamour and feminine maturity, the ultimate elegance and audacity only radiate in the true Roger Dubuis Velvet Diva.
Roger Dubuis CEO Mr. Jean-Marc Pontroué concluded the tour as Ms. Kim came up-close-and-personal with the Roger Dubuis’ Excalibur Broceliande – the Maison’s latest creation unveiled exclusively at this year’s Watches & Wonders.
