Backes & Strauss Royal Kent Collection

Posted on by

HRH Prince Michael of Kent is the Royal Brand Ambassador of Backes & Strauss. As part of Prince Michael’s collaboration, Backes & Strauss has created the Royal Kent Collection, a collection of timepieces for both men and women.

This series of timepieces is based on the iconic oval-shaped Regent collection, which is also Prince Michael’s favourite amongst the brand’s array of designs.

For the men’s collection, Backes & Strauss took the most powerful elements from HRH’s Coat of Arms and set them in a dark blue dial. For the ladies’ collection, the mother-of-pearl dial will be set with diamonds and feature Prince Michael’s wife’s, Princess Michael of Kent, Coat of Arms.
