Heading the event’s organization is a friend and client of De Bethune, Kelvin Sa, who conceived the event foremost with Chinese connoisseurs in mind who can now come together and discover the latest innovations in a venue that is more like a club than a salon: the 5th floor of the Shanghai History Museum, formerly the Shanghai Jockey Club.

Pierre Jacques, CEO of De Bethune said: “There is no more fitting event or better venue to set the stage for De Bethune’s first steps into China. It’s thanks to our friend Kelvin Sa, a discerning collector, client of De Bethune and main initiator of the Shanghai Watch Festival, that we had the idea of organizing this exhibit of key timepieces with him at the heart of Shanghai.
