Chatham opened its doors as an exclusive luxury watch boutique at No. 41, Galle Face Court 1 Colombo 3, recently and will house the finest and most iconic international luxury watch brands, including Cartier, Omega, Jaeger-LeCoultre, IWC and Chopard.
Each of the carefully selected luxury collections featured at Chatham have been in existence for more than 100 years and are considered the most magnificent of Swiss timepieces. All products available at the store are directly imported from Switzerland and are offered at competitive rates starting from Rs. 300,000 and upwards.
Clients also have the opportunity to place custom orders for one-of-a-kind watches or for pieces that are not currently available within the signature collections at Chatham.
These top brands have arrived in Sri Lanka through a joint venture between Sifani Jewellers the renowned luxury jewellery manufacturer, and the Hirdaramani Group a top apparel manufacturer.
“Our aim is to promote Sri Lanka as a destination to buy watches internationally and to offer convenience to locals who will no longer have to travel abroad to purchase a luxury watch at a competitive price. So far the response from both tourists and locals has been very positive; we are sure that the momentum will continue,” Sifani Jewellers Managing Director Rizwan Sahabdeen said.
This assemblage of brands encompasses the most valuable, reputable and desired luxury products in the industry. Cartier is known all over the world to be one of most treasured names in the industry. Cartier timepieces have adorned the wrists of celebrities and royalty for generations.
Chopard has a similar set of illustrious clientele who are drawn to the brand’s exquisite design and state-of-the-art technology.
