Louvre Museum presents the "Routes d'Arabie - Archéologie et histoire du royaume d'Arabie saoudite" exhibition, a journey through the heart of Arabia.
It takes the form of a series of stopovers in some of the peninsula's extensive oases, which in ancient times were home to powerful states or which, beginning in the 7th century, became Islamic holy places. The three hundred items chosen provide an original panorama of the different cultures that succeeded each other within the kingdom of Saudi Arabia from prehistoric times through the dawn of the modern world.

Combining classic taste with measured traces of nonconformity. Constructing an aesthetic awareness that enables one to challenge conventional attitudes.
Key points of a style focused on the body, emphasising the figure: double breasted jackets with natural shoulders, shorter proportions and bias cut at the hem to convey a sense of lightness. Trousers, with narrow hem and double dart create fluidity while retaining a slim hip line. Sophisticated and practical shirts with collars featuring press-studs covered in fabric. Pierced leather with raised prints and embroidered geometric motifs. Waistcoats cut short at the hem to replace shirts under jackets. Iridescent buttons for a shimmer of light. Trousers in gingham print, teamed with a gentleman's jacket for an ironic take on the traditional dandy.

Qatarwatch by Thomas Prescher Haute Horlogerie
Qatarwatch by Thomas Prescher Haute Horlogerie - The coat of arms of Qatar front and center
Thomas Prescher, the inventor of the flying Triple Axis Tourbillon, was recently asked to do a watch with a flag or national symbol and he has chosen Qatar. After a lot of research about this exceptional country, a picture of its Coat of Arms inspired Thomas Prescher.
Qatarwatch Thomas Prescher Haute Horlogerie Qatarwatch Thomas Prescher Haute Horlogerie Qatarwatch Thomas Prescher
As you can see on the video below, the coat of arms of Qatar ("شعار قطر") shows two crossed swords in a yellow circle. Between the swords there is a traditional sailing ship called dhow, sailing over the waves beside an island with two palm trees. The yellow circle is surrounded by a white and brown band, which is divided horizontally with a zigzag line.
