Schmuckstars–Timelounge Charity Gala 2025

Where elegance meets purpose — a night full of heart

Rocket Science

For a brief moment, I seriously considered starting this short article with a scientific treatise on the production of carbon fibers. However, given my rather limited abilities in the natural sciences during my school days, I immediately abandoned this idea and instead turned my attention to the things that move us all on a daily basis. Watches.

20 years Timelounge - celebrate and do good

A milestone anniversary, an exclusive ambience and a major contribution to a good cause - all this came together on 18 November 2024 at our Schmuckstars Timelounge Charity Gala at the Park Hyatt. To mark our 20th anniversary, we not only celebrated with guests, friends and partners, but also raised an impressive amount for Licht ins Dunkel and Pink Ribbon.

The return of the 80s

How deep is deep?

An eternal irritation

TIMELOUNGE CHARITY ACTION on 18 November 2024 at PARK HYATT!

CHARITY ACTION Issue #3 in favour of Licht ins Dunkel and PINK RIBBON! TIMELOUNGE is once again demonstrating great social compassion this year and is donating a large number of high-quality watches as part of the Schmuckstars-Timelounge Charity, which is being co-organised for the third time. As in the last two years, the entire proceeds from the auction will be donated to LICHT INS DUNKEL and PINK RIBBON!

The return of the 80s

Everything comes back. At some point. Even my grandmother knew that and the more mature you become, the more you realise: damn, it really is like that. When Rolex presented the GMT-Master II as a yellow gold and bicolour version on a Jubilé bracelet last year, I immediately felt something like my own personal Werthers Echte moment. Only not with gold-wrapped caramel sweets, but with the watches I knew from my childhood. And so I still remember, as if it were yesterday, the picture of TV legend Horst Tappert smiling at me from the cover of a TV magazine with a gold GMT on a Jubilee bracelet.

How deep is deep?

When I started wearing watches at a young age, everything was quite simple for me. If the words “Water Resistant” were written on the back cover, you had to be careful. On the other hand, if it said “30M”, everything was fine. Off to the beach with it and have fun. I wore those watches in the sea for years without a care in the world - for swimming, showering and bathing anyway.

An eternal irritation

Who hasn't experienced this? Travelling by plane from Japan to the USA, adjusting your world clock to the local conditions, but then the shock: the date is wrong! The reason: that darned International Date Line. A circumstance that already caused problems for Jules Verne's hero Phileas Fogg on his journey around the world in 80 days.
