FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Celebrate Singapore’s 60th Birthday with the ALBA SG60 Special Edition Timepiece
Singapore, 4 July 2025 – In celebration of Singapore’s 60th year of independence, ALBA proudly unveils the SG60 Special Edition – a timepiece that fuses national pride with enduring Japanese watchmaking craftsmanship.
This bold, limited-edition release commemorates Singapore’s diamond jubilee with a thoughtfully designed watch inspired by the nation’s iconic red and white flag. The vibrant red bezel and clean white dial echo the national colours, symbolising unity and purity respectively.
A standout feature lies on the second hand, which is embellished with a crescent moon and five stars – a direct tribute to the elements found on the Singapore flag. These symbols represent the nation’s ideals of democracy, peace, progress, justice and equality. The crescent, pointing forward, mirrors Singapore’s aspirations as a young, dynamic nation continuing to advance.
The dial also features the SG60 emblem at 12 o’clock – a proud mark of this milestone celebration – and a practical date display at 3 o’clock. Water resistant up to 10 bar, this sporty-yet-elegant timepiece is crafted for everyday resilience. It comes with a stainless steel bracelet for a classic look, along with an interchangeable white silicone strap for a more casual, contemporary feel.
Whether gifted to a loved one or worn as a personal reminder of national pride, the ALBA SG60 Special Edition is more than just a watch – it’s a tribute to Singapore’s journey over the past 60 years and a celebration of the future to come.
