The Watch Gallery Launches 88 Rue Du Rhone
The Watch Gallery in Selfridges exclusively launches 88 Rue Du Rhone.
By Emily Seares, 25 July 2012
88 Rue du Rhone is named after one of the most prestigious streets in Geneva, Switzerland; the Rue Du Rhone and is parallel to the river which shares its name and home to the city's most luxury shops. The number 88 is the only number missing from the street, instead at this location you can see a view of the Rhone River coming from Lake Geneva where the Swiss watchmaking industry began five centuries ago: Where Time Begins. The number 8 is also lucky in some cultures and when the signature 88 is viewed horizontally becomes the infinity symbol.
42mm steel & rose gold pvd plated case with logo engraved on case-side and crown. Swiss made quartz chronograph movement with a white dial including an 88 signature logo central dial, Arabic numerals, chronograph sub-dials controlled by push-buttons, date display and the 88 signature logo at 12 o’clock. The watch has an 8 engraved at each hour on the case-back.
Secured by a brown alligator leather strap with pin buckle. Water resistant to 50 metres. Comes with a 2 year manufacturer’s warranty.
As a certified 88 Rue Du Rhone dealer, all of our watches are supplied securely packed in official brand presentation boxes with stamped and dated documentation including the manufacturer's 2 year international warranty.
If your watch has a linked bracelet, we can adjust the size before it's sent so that it fits straight out of the box.
On placing your order you will receive a confirmation email - please reply to this email with your wrist measurement (in mm) and we'll make the necessary adjustments before despatch. Any links that have been removed will be sent with your watch. In some cases you may need additional links - in which case we'll get in touch as there may be a small additional cost as we'll need to source these from the manufacturer.
