“The company respects vintage watches as art. These are beautifully hand crafted, limited pieces that are rarely seen outside of specialty stores in Hong Kong, Europe and the USA. With one of the fastest growing economies, and a population whose tastes are refining at an exponential scale, Vintage Grail believes that the time is right to bring these watches to the Philippines. We aspire to help match the perfect watch to its owner, right here in Manila.”, said Franco Varona, co-founder of Vintage Grail.
