The first Glashütte Original Boutique in Vienna
Everywhere in the historic centre of Vienna one senses the presence of art, culture and centuries of masterful craftsmanship. The area thus offers the perfect atmosphere for the opening of the first Glashütte Original Boutique in Austria, now home to the fine art of Saxon watchmaking. The Viennese Boutique at Kohlmarkt 4 is located in one of the most elegant shopping districts in the city, in close proximity to significant landmarks including as the Hofburg, St. Stephen's Cathedral and the Opera.
The Boutique's modern interior, refined amenities and 70 square meter sales area welcome the visitor to the world of Glashütte Original. An interactive „Wonder Wall" takes advantage of a oversized magnifying glass to offer exceptional views of the movement's inner workings and finely worked decorative finishes. To the rear of the Boutique an inviting lounge area, complete with a modern multimedia installation, offers visitors a quiet place for engaging conversation and discoveries. An elegant staging of the current collection, along with the unmistakable ceiling decoration presenting the design of the manufactory's new Calibre 37, round off the comprehensive brand experience.
A new address in the French capital
Paris has always had a special relationship to the upper reaches of the watchmaker's art the city, after all, was one of the first to develop and flourish as a centre of the craft. Now that the Saxon watchmaker has established its presence, over the past six years, in the Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, it has created, with the new Boutique, even more space for the art of German watchmaking. The premises are right in the historic heart of the glamorous metropolis. Just around the corner from the elegant Place Vendôme and the Opéra Garnier, the luxurious ambience of the Rue de la Paix has made a name for itself around the world.
Like all Glashütte Original Boutiques worldwide, the new location in Paris invites visitors to step into the world of the Saxon manufactory. The sales area inside occupies a generous 135 square meters. Dark wood, cream-coloured accents and the characteristic decorative ceiling showing a stylised watch movement combine timeless elegance with elements of contemporary style. In terms of content, as well, the Boutique concept combines tradition with innovation. The „Wonder Wall" to the right of the entrance presents even the tiniest of manufactory movement components in an impressive manner, while a spacious lounge area offers a quiet place to relax and gather information.
For the first time in Paris, the watchmaker will present an "Experience Wall", allowing visitors to experience the Brand interactively. Customers may also wish to consult with one of the firm's experienced watchmakers in the Boutique.
