The Watch Room features individual boutiques from the most celebrated and exclusive of fine watch brands.

The design was masterminded by Mike Rundell at Rundell Associates and is perhaps most spectacularly defined by the magnificent central sweeping stone staircase with back wall crafted from a single block of rare Cipollino marble, complemented by an elegant balustrade formed from patinated bronze. The whole is topped by an ovular domed ceiling feature marked with the hours and minutes of a clock.

Vacheron Constantin, established in Geneva in 1755, is generally acknowledged as the oldest watchmaker in continuous production.
