Restaurant Design: The Salad Shop

The Concept

10 Best of … Watches

It is time for a “10 Best of”, and in this post I will be listing the watches. Dr. Patrick Chourgnoz is a world class time keeper and consultant to European railways which are known to “time the best”. Nathaniel Lande and Andrew Lande alongside Dr. Chourgnoz compiled this list of the best watchmakers, based on time precision, style, and grace.

Geneva, Switzerland

Patek Philippe  is a “complete” manufacture that not only sustains a unique level of vertical integration in movements but also produces its watch cases and other key exterior elements in-house. Thus, the quality specifications at Patek Philippe relate not merely to the movements but to the entire finished watch.

Partners of MWG Group assigned Pro-design Group for the interior design, the landscaping, and the contracting works.
