In its third edition, SIAR Summer Experience has established itself as the place to be for Mexican collectors and enthusiasts to meet some of the most important exponents of independent watchmaking, which is going through one of its best moments worldwide.

At this year’s SIAR Summer Experience, we have been able to see how Mexico is part of the global boom in independent watchmaking, with a community made up of many young people who are attracted by the out-of-the box proposals of these creators driven by a passion and creativity that goes beyond commercial trends.

For the second consecutive year, Lexus was a sponsor of the SIAR Summer Experience, emphasizing the powerful link between watches and prestige cars. The Japanese brand presented for the first time to guests and media the actor Diego Boneta as its new Lexus Voice.

In this casual and relaxed setting, attendees of the third edition were able to relax and network on the terraces of the Four Seasons Hotel with magnificent cocktail experiences offered by Hennesy cognac, Glenmorangie whisky, Volcán de mi tierra tequila and Chandon Garden Spritz sparkling wine.
