Press Release_N0415GLA-MS6S_N0736GLA-MC2S.png

Shaped by vision and collaboration, the X Collection pushes the boundaries of design and materials to inspire creativity and play, marking the first use of 904L steel in the collection.


Ernest Borel introduces the X Collection, an all-new series of collaborative timepieces that fuse Swiss watchmaking craftsmanship with creative partnerships. Launching with limited-edition designs, the collection begins its journey in collaboration with Ocean Park Hong Kong, a celebrated icon of marine conservation and cultural heritage.


The collection includes four limited-edition timepieces, each crafted with a 904L stainless steel case and bracelet, and powered by the reliable SW200 automatic movement. This release marks the first time Ernest Borel has used the high-performance 904L steel, renowned for its exceptional brilliance, strength, and durability, elevating both the quality and presence of these timepieces.


The collection is inspired by two distinctive Oh!Moments characters, Whiskers the Sea Lion and Mark the Shark, whose personalities bring fresh energy and meaning to Ernest Borel’s iconic designs. Through brilliant colors, symbolic details, and refined craftsmanship, these characters come to life in timepieces that seamlessly blend Swiss heritage with creative storytelling. Whiskers’ anchor represents stability and staying true to what matters most, while Mark’s fin symbolizes fearless spirit and perseverance, a reminder to always keep swimming forward.

 

Subtle design cues are featured throughout the Ernest Borel x Ocean Park N0415G and N0736G series, capturing the playful charm of the beloved characters while reflecting Ernest Borel’s timeless elegance. Enhanced by luminous details, each limited-edition timepiece features a special caseback engraving and an individual serial number, completed with a folding clasp that combines comfort with refined style.
