“Classic, timeless and enduring”

These are the words that are use to describe Vacheron Constantine’s American 1921, the classic with a twist.

It is certainly not difficult to see the allure of this watch, its unique twist and its unpretentious look that gives it a subtle but yet alluring charm.

I was engaged by them to tell the brand story of the American 1921, it was a showcase and a celebration of its 100 years.

The event took place at Quadrant off Cecil Street and I was give a delicate table where guests would come in pairs to experience the story of the American 1921 through magic. Because this was a time of COVID19 restrictions, there were some added precaution I adhered to:

  • Performed with mask on

  • Participants do not have any contact with the props

  • Seats and table to be wiped down after each set

  • My hands to be sanitised after each performance

The magic involves immersing the audiences back in time to the Roaring Twenties. I designed a series of magic with cocktail shakers and olives to recreate a speakeasy bar during the Prohibition period.

I was also gifted a customized deck of cards made by Vacheron Constantin. This was a beautiful deck of cards to incorporate as the sides of the cards were gold. Truly a beautiful deck

The showroom also showcased the evolution of the watch, and features other signature pieces too.

At the end of the event, I received concretely strong feedback about the magic and how it compliments the experience of going back in time and reexperiencing the watch in it original form.
