Authorized dealers representing more than 20 luxury Swiss watch brands featuring more than 1,000 timepieces will participate and the King family is proud to present these exclusive never seen before collections and one of a kind pieces to the Central South. The timepieces will include once in a lifetime exquisite prototypes which may not ever be manufactured by these companies, providing an even more special experience for watch aficionados and collectors.

Guests will enjoy daily festivities and gifts with purchase, for example, all Swiss Army watches come with a complimentary Swiss Army knife as a gift with purchase and be among the first to wear haute horology’s most sought-after wristwatches for 2010. King Jewelers is also pleased to announce its representation of the exclusive ladies MIKOMOTO pearl jewelry collection and will preview the newest pieces with a trunk show during both days of the Watch Fair.

“The Watch Fair allows our guests from Nashville and beyond to view the most elite and unique Swiss timepieces for the first time,” said David King, brand manager of King Jewelers. “This annual event is one of the most distinctive ever offered to the Nashville community. Watch collectors wait with bated breath to glimpse these new offerings.”

In 1893, Kokichi Mikimoto succeeded in producing the world’s first cultured pearl. Since that day, MIKIMOTO continues to make history, creating its own distinctive style. MIKIMOTO has developed the highest standards of quality and consistency by devoting more than a century to understanding the sea and researching the oyster. Only the top five percent of the pearl harvest meets the strict quality standards of MIKIMOTO. A proprietary pearl grading system measures the quality of each MIKIMOTO pearl. This unique grading system provides the standard of excellence that distinguishes MIKIMOTO pearls from all others. Visit http://www.mikimotoamerica.com/ for more information.
