Revelot’s Hexmariner 39 Durian watch.
Durian season is upon us, and with it, a most unlikely tribute to the “king of fruits”.
Revelot has come up with a limited-edition Hexmariner 39 Durian watch, a bold nod to Malaysia’s most iconic fruit.
Revered by some, reviled by others, the durian has long divided opinion, making it the perfect muse.
Loud, provocative and proudly local, it speaks to a way of life that’s unafraid of standing out.
Revelot draws from this national obsession and celebrates the durian, elevating a symbol often misunderstood into something unexpectedly refined, with just enough irreverence to keep it interesting.
True to its inspiration, the watch is spiked with personality.
Finished in rich green and yellow tones, the durian-green dial features a geometric texture that echoes the fruit’s thorny silhouette, while yellow lumed hexagonal indices remind one of its golden flesh.
Revelot has introduced the limited-edition Hexmariner 39 Durian watch, a bold nod to Malaysia’s most iconic fruit.
The chapter ring is etched with “King Of Fruits”, wrapping the dial in a playful wink to those in the know.
A durian-green ceramic bezel with yellow lumed markers frames the design, while a lumed miniature durian perched on the second hand delivers a final, irreverent touch to this layered homage.
The campaign visuals extend the watch’s duality into a compelling narrative, starring Malaysian model and actress Nia Atasha.
A modern style muse known for her fearless edge and cultural fluency, Nia brings a magnetic presence to the frame.
Shot in an opulent fine-dining setting, the imagery pairs luxury with levity, navigating the ritual of eating durian with the poise of couture.
She wears a striking neon gown by Syomirizwa Gupta, a designer celebrated for bold colour and culturally layered storytelling, adding a distinctly Malaysian elegance to the surreal setting.
Up close with the ‘spikes’ and ‘flesh’ of the Durian Watch.
The mood is rich and cinematic, blending sensuality with a touch of irony, as the familiar is reframed through a lens of high fashion.
The Hexmariner 39 Durian watch isn’t a novelty; it’s a study in nuance, a quiet provocation that reminds us that cultural icons don’t need to be polished to be powerful.
But when elevated with contemporary design and precision, it becomes a collector’s piece that refuses to blend in.
The limited-edition Hexmariner 39 Durian watch is priced at RM1,688.
Available in limited quantities on Revelot.com and selected Timekeeper stores.
