We might not recall the stories told by heart, but bits and bobs surface and we
remember how utterly cool our parents are. From the sick moves on the disco dance
floor to surviving the wilderness, or even weathering every day life without the help
of technology, the generations today can hardly compare.
For this coming Parents’ Day, Red Army Watches is sharing a lineup of classic
and modern timepieces for mom and dad, reminding how precious they are to us.
Who knows, they might just start bragging about how cool their kids are for gifting
them these:
For mom
Sturmanskie Mars Lady
For Mars Lady, individuality is priority. Make mom edgier with the inspirations
of Russian avant-garde, expressed through its pure geometric form, commanding
black and burning red hue. Colour takes precedence in this exquisite piece - its black
lacquered dial with overlaid indices and diamond face trim, and dark leather strap
with stainless steel buckle for a classy finish. As for the movement, this piece is
powered by a mechanical autowinding 9015 Miyota.
Alexander Shorokhoff Barbara
Jazz lover, piano player, or simply a stylish mom? Look no further than Barbara.
This timepiece is Alexander Shorokhoff’s tribute to jazz musician Barbara Dennerlein,
famous for her play on the Hammond organ. The avant-garde design corresponds to
the work of this unique artist, with “with organ keys surrounding a clef that virtually
breaks the mold on the colorful and vibrant background”. With a limitation of 169
pieces, this receiver of the “Special Mention” German Design Award is a desirable
collectors item.
For dad
BOLDR Odyssey Carbon Green
If there’s ever a watch fit for a superdad, BOLDR Odyssey would be it. Boasting the
ability to withstand most things, it is also light enough to go anywhere. Using a
special compositing process that combines graphite fibres and a special resin, the
forged carbon case is six times lighter than steel, but nearly 200 times stronger. Each
watch in this limited run has its fibres arranged randomly, creating a unique, one-of-a-
kind design on the wrist, ready for any spontaneous adventures. If it’s #toughenough
to take on anything, it’s good enough for dad.
REC RJM-03
A piece of real history on the wrist - what a way to show your love. From design
to materials, everything in the RJM collection contains a piece of WWII history. It is
the world’s first mechanical timepiece that combines authentic salvaged materials cut
directly from the PT879 MK IX Spitfire aircraft, with both the design of the aircraft
itself, and the watches worn by RAF pilots of that era. The crown protector, crown tip
and rotor decoration are all heavily inspired by the aspects of Spitfire aircrafts that
make them an aerodynamic marvel and what makes the RJM stand out on the wrist.
The case is inspired by the watches worn by the British Royal Airforce and the British
Army during that era.
All the timepieces are available at Red Army Watches outlets — 1 Utama
Shopping Centre, Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, Gurney Plaza and mo.men.tum in Sunway
Velocity.
BOLDR Odyssey Carbon Green is also available at Robinsons Kuala Lumpur,
