Durian Revelot, the King of Fruits, transforms into a striking timepiece—wearable art with bold texture and local flair.
Meet the Limited Edition Hexmariner Durian Watch, a bold tribute to Malaysia’s most polarising fruit. t’s cheeky, it’s stylish, and it’s unexpectedly refined.
With limited pieces available, this collector’s watch is already making waves among design lovers, watch collectors, and culture connoisseurs.
Spikes, Lume And A Dash of Irony
Durian Revelot taking literal inspiration from the fruit’s iconic texture, the durian-green dial features geometric patterns that echo the thorny husk. Yellow lumed hexagonal indices bring the fruit’s golden interior to life. And for the final flourish? A mini durian perched on the second hand—an irreverent wink to those in the know.
Wrapped in a ceramic bezel and Swiss Super-Luminova accents, the watch’s aesthetic is sharp and self-aware. Every detail, from the “KING OF FRUITS” chapter ring to its spiked silhouette, tells a story. It’s not just a timepiece, it’s a conversation starter.
Malaysia’s Muse, Styled In Neon
The campaign stars actress and model Nia Atasha in a surrealist, fine-dining setting, styled in a neon Syomirizwa Gupta gown. The look: luxurious with a twist of local flavour. Shot with cinematic mood and tongue-in-cheek elegance, the imagery feels both haute couture and unmistakably Malaysian.
There’s no mistaking the message—this isn’t just about watches or fruit. It’s about identity, irony, and rewriting what luxury looks like when it embraces heritage without apology.
Built for Collectors, Designed With Meaning
With a 39mm 316L stainless steel case, sapphire glass, 200M water resistance, and NH35 Japan automatic movement, Revelot’s Hexmariner Durian isn’t just for show. It’s built to perform. Retailing at RM1,688 (or RM1,388 for early birds), this durian-inspired gem will be available from 18 July 2025 on Revelot.com and selected Timekeeper stores.
But make no mistake—it’s more than its specs. This release captures the essence of contemporary Malaysian design thinking: fearless, humorous, and proudly local.
The Local Brand Going Global
