Timepieces & Whiskies experience for Macau

Luxury travel retailer DFS Group has unveiled a lifestyle shopping experience for men, Timepieces & Whiskies, at T Galleria by DFS, Macau, City of Dreams.

Next to the multi-brand men’s shoe hall on the men’s fashion floor, Timepieces & Whiskies was inspired by collectors who travel the world then display their finds at home. It is a curated collection of treasures and icon pieces from across the worlds of whiskies and watches.

Inside a lofted library-style lounge, Timepieces & Whiskies allows guests to relax and sample a cult-favourite single malt at the bar or try on a classic watch by the fireplace.

“With Timepieces & Whiskies, we bring the classic hospitality tradition into the retail shopping experience,” says DFS Group senior VP Brooke Supernaw.
