Backes & Strauss Announces ‘The Vitesse Collection’ in Collaboration with HRH Princess Michael Of Kent

Backes & Strauss is delighted to announce the upcoming release of The Vitesse Collection of watches in collaboration with Her Royal Highness (HRH) Princess Michael of Kent.

Inspired by HRH’s lifelong passion and knowledge for the plight of Cheetah’s across the African continent, these exclusive watches show Backes & Strauss at its creative best while supporting vital efforts to preserve this extraordinary species.

“Time is of the essence to protect what remains of the worldwide Cheetah population, which currently sits at around 7,000 and continues to decline, I am especially passionate about this collaboration as it will raise awareness of the situation and benefit the Endangered Species Centre in South Africa and the Cheetah Conservation Fund in Namibia.”

— HRH SAID ON THE ANNOUNCEMENT.

PASSION FOR CHEETAHS

HRH’s interest in Cheetah dates back to her childhood in Mozambique, where she raised an orphaned cheetah cub named Vitesse, whom she hand-reared and later released into the wild after teaching her to survive on her own.

These experiences were the subject of 2017 autobiographical book A Cheetah’s Tale, which also explored the incredible bonds between animals and humans. The Princess also currently serves as the Royal Patron for both the benefitting organizations.

“This collaboration with HRH is the latest extremely exciting project for Backes & Strauss, as well as giving us the opportunity to produce stunning and unique timepieces, it will also help raise urgently needed funds to support conservation projects aimed at saving these beautiful cats from extinction.”

— COMPANY CEO VARTKESS KNADJIAN

There is also a dial with hand engraved cheetahs on a mother of pearl background.

Backes & Strauss anuncia ‘The Vitesse Collection’ en colaboración con SAR la Princesa Michael Of Kent

Backes & Strauss se complace en anunciar el próximo lanzamiento de la colección de relojes Vitesse en colaboración con Su Alteza Real (SAR) la Princesa Michael de Kent.

Inspirados por la pasión y el conocimiento de toda la vida de Su Alteza Real por la difícil situación de los guepardos en todo el continente africano, estos relojes exclusivos muestran a Backes & Strauss en su mejor momento creativo al tiempo que respaldan los esfuerzos vitales para preservar esta especie extraordinaria.

“El tiempo es esencial para proteger lo que queda de la población de guepardos en todo el mundo, que actualmente ronda los 7000 y continúa disminuyendo. Me apasiona especialmente esta colaboración, ya que creará conciencia sobre la situación y beneficiará al Centro de Especies en Peligro de Extinción en South África y el Cheetah Conservation Fund en Namibia”.

PASIÓN POR LOS GUEPARDOS

El interés de Su Alteza Real en Cheetah se remonta a su infancia en Mozambique, donde crió a un cachorro de guepardo huérfano llamado Vitesse, a quien crió a mano y luego liberó en la naturaleza después de enseñarle a sobrevivir por sí misma.

Estas experiencias fueron el tema del libro autobiográfico de 2017 A Cheetah’s Tale, que también exploró los increíbles lazos entre animales y humanos. La Princesa también se desempeña actualmente como Patrona Real de ambas organizaciones beneficiarias.

“Esta colaboración con HRH es el último proyecto extremadamente emocionante para Backes & Strauss, además de brindarnos la oportunidad de producir relojes impresionantes y únicos, también ayudará a recaudar fondos que se necesitan con urgencia para apoyar proyectos de conservación destinados a salvar a estos hermosos felinos de la extinción. .”

— COMPANY CEO VARTKESS KNADJIAN

COLECCIÓN VITESSE

La colección Vitesse de lanzamiento presenta varias esferas de “Métiers d’art” con guepardos pintados a mano sobre esmalte, nácar, seda y jade verde. También hay una esfera con guepardos grabados a mano sobre un fondo de nácar. Además, hay un bisel creativo engastado con diamantes negros y amarillos vivos naturales que imitan el patrón de piel del guepardo.
