A luxury goods company, Polo Luxury, has stated that it is happy to be developing the Rolex brand in Nigeria in a way that benefits both Polo and its partners.
The PUNCH reported that Polo, which sells high-end watch and jewelery brands, said in a statement on Tuesday that the Managing Director of Polo Limited, John Obayuwana, remarked this during a gathering of Bovet collectors where it displayed its latest watches.
“Bovet 1822 stands in a class of its own with over two centuries of timeless art and engineering brilliance,” Obayuwana remarked.
“This is evident in every piece designed by the brand to date. Polo has represented Bovet 1822 in West Africa for many years, and we are very delighted to be increasing the Rolex presence in the area, upholding the highest quality and service standards that are important to both the brand and our own business.”
The global Vice President of Bovet 1822, Audrey Raffy, flew in to be the event’s keynote speaker. During the event, attendees were particularly interested in the Bovet Amadeo Fleurier Virtuoso V Jumping Hours, a piece that could be converted from a wristwatch to a a pocket watch or even a table clock.
