watch Fred Of Paris

Fred of Paris is synonymous with sophistication; it is a creative and prestigious jewelry brand as well as a symbol of magical luxury.  It is free from tedious traditions and offers an unmistakably French flair.

It all started in 1936 when 28-year old Fred Samuel, a passionate man, opened a boutique in Paris. The brand became known from the start for its modern trends in jewelry and accessories and he became one of the greatest jewelers in place Vendome.  His guiding principles then remain the same to this day: boldness and discipline.

The brand caught the eye of celebrities such as Douglas Fairbanks, Mary Pickford, and Marlene Dietrich, and it also caught the eye of royalty, as in the 1950s he became the jeweler for members of the Middle East royalty.

Fred of Paris is able to stay true to its origins and style, but is also capable of reinventing itself.  This is the beauty of Fred Samuel’s philosophy of rejecting the clichés and emphasizing the sensuality of today’s woman.  Fred of Paris can be found in the most important fashion capitals of the world with over 10 boutiques from Tokyo to Paris.

The brand offers today tourbillon watches, as well as vintage watches, chronometers and chronographs, and these watches are an investment that will increase in value in the following decades and that can be passed to the next generations.

The best known model from the brand is the Limited Edition watch called the Gladiateur Collector, available in stainless steel or in pink gold. It features diamonds, a brown dial and a brown rubber strap.  The chronograph version of this watch for men is very appreciated by collectors, with a case in pink gold that measures 44mm in diameter, a dial made of carbon fiber, a dual-tone rubber strap, and a sapphire domed crystal.

Fred of Paris offers a lot more than luxury watches; it also creates stunning accessories, like their very popular sunglasses, engagement rings, bracelets, and much more. The brand will remain a favorite of the connoisseurs for many more years to come.
