A new brand of exquisite timepieces has come to town and is set to make waves among the country’s watch aficionados.
Time Master, the newest business venture of budding entrepreneur Brian Poe Llamanzares, recently held a Grand Launch and Ramp Show at Prive Luxury Club in Bonifacio Global City, amidst a jam packed crowd consisting of Manila’s movers and shakers, big names in business, sports, film and television.
Llamanzares, son of Senator Grace Poe, is certainly coming into his own with notable accomplishments left and right, earning him the distinction of being called a “Game Changer” among today’s millennial. The 25-year-old business owner is a perennial source of pride for both the Poe and Llamanzares sides of the family. It comes as no surprise that his loved ones came in full force on May 12, with grandmother Susan Roces and aunt Lovi Poe lending significant star power to the elegant Prive affair. Brian’s dad Neil, mom Grace, sister Hanna and girlfriend Angel Alita were also in the crowd to show their love and support for the man of the hour.
Time Master unveiled its Poseidon Collection, four styles of limited-edition timepieces designed with superlative features and the signature Time Master craftsmanship. Each product comes with the precision and dependability one would expect from a high-end watch, not to mention a commitment to help the less fortunate with every watch sold. Time Master has partnered with MovEd, a charity that makes quality education possible for children from poor communities.
MovEd founder Alex Eduque lauded the efforts of Llamanzares in putting together a globally competitive brand that goes beyond business by way of paying it forward where it truly counts. Time Master enters the less-traveled path of giving back, revealing Brian’s affinity for public service and social responsibility.
One of the highlights of the night was the young CEO’s heartfelt tribute to his dad Neil Llamanzares, the very person who sowed in him a love for watches. Growing up, Brian recalls always receiving a watch from the elder Llamanzares to celebrate his personal milestones. At Time Master’s Grand Launch, Brian reciprocated his father’s timeless love with a most memorable gesture— the gift of the Time Master Metal Ore 001, the very first Time Master timepiece ever assembled. It was a touching affair to say the least, and a clear affirmation that Brian has picked the right time for the right business.
Time Master’s Poseidon Collection is now available at Washington Watches in SM North EDSA, Greenbelt and Glorietta, and may also be purchased online via its website timemasterwatches.com. For more information, please check out the brand’s Instagram account @timemasterwatches.
