-- At the Discovery of Nearly 240 Years of Horological Innovations
September, 2014
Breguet Boutique of the Langham Hotel (Xintiandi, Shanghai)

On Thursday, September 4, Breguet celebrated the official inauguration of the first Asian stop of its 2014 tour. This not-to-be-missed exhibition presents a selection of revolutionary inventions that forged the brand’s prestige for nearly 240 years.
To celebrate the arrival of its exhibition in China, event coinciding with the launch of the Tourbillon extra-plat automatique 5377 on the market, Breguet organised an exclusive gala evening in three stages. Firstly, the company provided its guests an opportunity to relive key periods of its history through music with a magnificent performance by the Shanghai Philharmonic Orchestra at the majestic Shanghai Concert Hall. The concert continued with a gala dinner, and then the spectacular evening closed with a rooftop after-party overlooking the iconic city skyline.

During the exhibition event and the launching, SOES was involved as an AVL services provider, providing lighting&audio effect both in the boutique, and in the hotel where a gala dinner was held. Given that time was rather tight for this case, we had to spend an overnight to have all equipment and control systems set up. In particular, the zone of the hotel canteen and the garden were a bit limited compared to what we had done before; under this condition, it was very important for the technicians to avoid the vulnerable facilities of the hotel (bulb, ceiling, art decoration, etc.). However the situation was, we had deployed our character of detail-orientation and our professionalism at the same time.
Thanks to the efforts of SOES members and the support from the host, like many other cases, this event for the Bregeut came to a full-ending and gained content from our clients. The success goes not only to our staff, but also, which is very important, to the communication with our customers.
