Ice-Watch® has had a retail presence since 2007. The idea came from its creator, the Belgian Jean-Pierre Lutgen, who through numerous trips in Asia and a network of trustworthy and reliable partners developed an idea and launched a global concept with its own visual, tactile, aural and even olfactory identity, showcasing a watch that is fun, hip, intergenerational, available in a complete range of colours, presented in a perfectly matching money-bank case, with a fine tuned and daring marketing strategy.
