On my must-have list “The Rolex Yacht-Master. It now comes with the patented Oysterflex bracelet (it resembles a rubber strap but has resistance comparable to that of a metal bracelet), which has that sporty look and feel that I love. For more elegant and feminine wear, I would choose the Chopard Happy Sport which now comes in a 30mm automatic edition.”
Favourite watches of the moment “It would have to be the new-generation Calibre 3255 from Rolex. With the enhanced features – including a longer power reserve of 70 hours, faster self-winding, better resistance to shocks and magnetic interference – it will only mean better performance and higher reliability. I also like Blancpain’s Jour Nuit which features a new calibre created for women.”
Best spot to visit in Switzerland “My visits to the country thus far have always been for holidays. Lake Lugano in southern Switzerland and Lucerne in central Switzerland are lovely. And, if there’s time, a visit to Lake Como in nearby Italy is a must. It’s such a beautiful and scenic area, with a lot of elegance and charm.”
