A luxury gift for a man in Dubai who loves fine watches: KERIS Swiss mechanical sculptures, available in the UAE through Ahmed Seddiqi & Sons.

Luxury Gifts for Men in Dubai: Swiss Mechanical Sculptures for Watch Collectors

Quick answer: for a man in Dubai who appreciates fine watchmaking, a KERIS mechanical sculpture is a rare and personal gift. In the UAE, KERIS is represented by Ahmed Seddiqi & Sons, and its pieces suit the year-end season, UAE National Day on 2 December, Christmas for those who celebrate it, and corporate gifting.

Why KERIS resonates with collectors in Dubai

Dubai is one of the world's great watch capitals and the home of Dubai Watch Week. KERIS presented its Mechanical Wonders at Dubai Watch Week 2025 through its partnership with Ahmed Seddiqi & Sons, appeared at Mavericks of Time by Seddiqi in Abu Dhabi in October 2026, and will reveal the first piece of its ULTRA collection at Dubai Watch Week 2027.

For a collector, a KERIS piece is not a replacement for a watch. It is the movement of a watch, enlarged and made visible, to display next to a collection.

Gift ideas for a man in Dubai

  • MECA TRADITION — a complete movement in a champagne-anodized finish, a limited edition with a warm, classic presence.
  • MECA RHODIUM — the same 220 mm movement in a dark rhodium anthracite finish.
  • THE OSCILLATOR — the balance and hairspring, the heartbeat of a watch, at 1'800 CHF TTC.
  • THE WINDING GENEVA — the oscillating winding mass of an automatic watch.

A gift that explains itself

Each piece comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. With the free KERIS AR app, the owner of a MECA piece can point his phone at the sculpture and see the movement open up, with each component explained.
