Fashion Valley, the center of one of Southern California’s trendiest neighborhoods, is home to the gorgeous new Rolex shop that Fourtané, the premier watch and jewelry destination for great brands, has opened. The 3,000-square-foot boutique provides specialist knowledge in a refined environment that fosters harmony, secrecy, and closeness with the brand.
Fourtané owner Josh Bonifas said, “I am humbled by their confidence in allowing us to represent the brand on such a significant scale with this new project.” When the boutique opened in 2018, San Diego welcomed my team and me, which helped us build a loyal customer base. I set out to create something genuinely remarkable and exclusive to San Diego with this in mind. We succeeded in creating a unique shopping experience by pushing the boundaries of design and showcasing San Diego through the integration of contemporary high-tech elements with maritime aesthetics.
Each inside feature embodies the qualities of the Rolex crown and draws attention to the heightened Rolex style. The boutique’s meticulous arrangement of colors and patterns in the furniture is what gives off the brand’s brilliance, accuracy, and attention to detail. Arriving guests are welcomed by an azure wall featuring details inspired by yachts, a nod to Rolex’s longstanding affinity for the sea. Subtle allusions to the brand’s signature green are found throughout the store, and a combination of curves, patterned wood flooring, and further blue touches evoke the inside of a yacht.
Particular tables with brass inlay provide more room to see the watches. The walls’ varied textures, which range from walnut brown wood to beige-colored stone and hand-crafted stucco panels, are reminiscent of the fluted bezel of the Oyster watch. The room is lit by tasteful lighting that draws attention to the amazing qualities of the watches.
These fixtures include pendant lights and chandeliers that allude to the Oyster bracelet and the exquisite assortment of watches that are showcased in sophisticated cases lined with beige leather and adorned with bronze accents.
One of the boutique’s more unusual chambers is adorned with mirrors and screens, enticing visitors to partake in James Cameron’s Mariana Trench dive. A portion of the mirror in this area displays the Deepsea model that went on this voyage. Extra areas within the store provide customized chances for customers to silently feel the thrill of the goods, such as a private room with a distinct theme.
