Swiss Watchmaking House Perrelet is honoured to have been the official watch partner of the prestigious “Globe Soccer Awards” held in Dubai (UAE) on December27th, 2021.
With its impressive watchmaking heritage spanning over 240 years of history, Perrelet – founded by master watchmaker Abraham-Louis Perrelet in 1777 – is synonymous with the self-winding movements since its founding and renowned worldwide for its timepieces with ‘animated’ dials in its many interpretations.
Perrelet feels a strong affinity with football, a very dynamic sport as dynamic are its timepieces featuring dials in motion thanks to the patented Double Rotor and Turbine Technologies.
Among the values that make football one of the world’s best-loved sports, are the every-day commitment and constant dedication to improving in order to offer fans and admirers an ever more exciting and overwhelming spectacle. Perrelet shares these same values and strives to create highly reliable watches, endowed with a contemporary and unconventional style to meet the demand of watch enthusiasts in search of exclusive time instruments.
The brand is proud to have been part of the 2021 edition of the Globe Soccer Awards, celebrating the football icons and the reopening of the activities around the world in the second year of the pandemic.
The annual Globe Soccer Awards were established in 2010 with the aim of recognizing not just the best players and coaches but also the people who work behind the scene.
This coveted award has been organized in collaboration with the Dubai Sports Council, under the auspices of His Highness Sheikh Mansoor Bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum. The prize-giving ceremony took place in the stunning location of Expo 2020, inside the Al Wasl Dome, a spectacular architectural masterpiece.
The laureates of the Dubai Globe Soccer Award 2021 include renowned names such as Federico Bonucci (Best Defender of the Year), Roberto Mancini (Best Coach of the Year), Cristiano Ronaldo (Top Goal Scorer of all Time), Federico Pastorello (Best Agent of the Year), Kylian Mbappé (Best Men’s Player of the Year) to name a few. The full list of winners is available at www.globesoccer.com.
Perrelet was very honoured to bestow all the award-winning stars with its mechanical timepieces from its flagship collection “Turbine Evo”. The most distinctive and fascinating feature of the Turbine models is its 12-blade propeller on the dial, which spins incredibly fast at the slightest movement of the wrist and unveils a decorated sub-dial as it rotates. This collection is equipped with the 100% in-house manufactured automatic caliber P-331-MH, covered by the prestigious COSC (Contrôle Officiel Suisse des Chronomètres) certification, testifying high precision in timekeeping after having undergone a series of tests.
Perrelet congratulates once again all the winners on their well-deserved awards. It was an incredible experience and we look forward to seeing what the 2022 edition has in store.
