All FCB players have designed their unique watch Fans. Your time is snow. Maurice Lacroix, the official watch partner of FC Barcelona, recently revealed an impressive collection of 24 unique pieces designed individually by each player of the prestigious football club. Today, the luxury watch brand from Saignel\u00e9gier (Switzerland) goes one step further and proposes the same \u201cmoney can\u2019t buy\u201d experience of designing a bespoke piece of luxury to all watch lovers and FC Barcelona fans. If you have ever dreamt of owning a unique watch, Maurice Lacroix offers you the possibility to make this dream come true. You just need to design it, share it and win it.<\/p>\n

Just like the players<\/strong>
The 24 unique player\u2019s watches will remain \u201csignature pieces\u201d forever, just as unique as the players who designed them. Each one with its style, personality and creative touch. Doing something different, engaging with a luxury brand and designing a timepiece exactly to your image is something that even the best footballers in the world truly enjoyed. Now just like the players, YOUR TIME IS NOW to demonstrate your creative skills and become the owner of a completely unique watch.<\/p>\n

Simply unique<\/strong>
Maurice Lacroix and FC Barcelona have developed a very close collaboration and already successfully revealed several creative campaigns. So when all the players were given a chance to demonstrate their creative skills off the pitch, the opportunity was too good to miss. Each member of the team eagerly took on the challenge and 24 one-to-one design sessions were organized in a custom-made Maurice Lacroix design studio specially installed within the FC Barcelona facilities. Simply unique.<\/p>\n

A design experience <\/strong>
Never before had any luxury watchmaker created such a unique collection of timepieces. In order to enable superstar players of the likes of Messi, Neymar, Suarez, Iniesta, Piqu\u00e9, Rakitic and Busquets to dive into the real Maurice Lacroix creative universe, a complete design studio was installed in the FC Barcelona training facilities. A vast array of material samples, dials, straps, hand-sketches and movements were presented and discussed with each one of the players. The unique Maurice Lacroix POWERLITE\u00ae material was of particular interest and raised many questions.<\/p>\n

Indeed, this high-tech alloy, which is three times harder and twice as light as stainless steel, can also be colored within the mass through a special anodization technique. On top of the many color options available, players could also choose between a mat and polished finishing for the case as well as engrave a name or special message on its flanks. Last but not least, the design experience was made all the more fun and engaging thanks to a special application enabling the players to make many tests and get real-time previews of their creations.<\/p>\n

\u201cRemember, this is my watch !”<\/strong>
The interactions and complicity between the Maurice Lacroix head designer and the players was simply remarkable. Whilst some football players adopted a more cautious design approach (Suarez, Adriano, Ter Stegen, Bartra), others displayed a very expressive personality (Mascherano, Xavi, Busquets).
Key moments of complicity were the creative and fun duo formed by Leo Messi and Gerard Piqu\u00e9 who insisted to work together, and of course the inimitable and playful Brazilian star Dani Alves who can definitely be granted with the quote of the day: \u201cLook at it, film it and remember it. This is my watch!\u201d.<\/p>\n

World Tour Exhibition <\/strong>
The players will shortly be presented with their unique timepieces. Off the pitch, Maurice Lacroix has decided to produce a second, non-sellable piece of each one of the player\u2019s watches. This \u201cmuseum\u201d collection will shortly embark on a World Tour and will be presented to the public in a series of exhibitions across Europe, the US, Middle East and Asia.<\/p>\n
