When India's time takes centre stage

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been spotted wearing a luxury watch from Jaipur Watch Company. The timepiece, part of the Roman Baagh collection, highlights India’s growing presence in the high-end goods market. The brand is now expanding into the United Arab Emirates, with plans for new stores in Dubai by 2026.

The Roman Baagh watch stands out for its unique design. A rare 1947 one-rupee coin, symbolising India’s independence, is embedded in its stainless-steel case. Inside, a Japanese Miyota movement ensures precision, blending heritage with modern engineering.

Jaipur Watch Company is broadening its reach in the UAE. The first location will open in the Dubai Mall, one of the world’s largest shopping destinations. By 2026, the brand expects to establish multiple retail outlets across Dubai. Modi’s choice of the watch has drawn attention to Indian luxury craftsmanship. The endorsement reflects rising confidence in homegrown high-end products. It also signals a shift in how global buyers perceive Indian-made luxury goods.

The Roman Baagh collection now carries greater visibility after Modi’s public appearance with the watch. Jaipur Watch Company’s expansion into the UAE marks a strategic move into a key luxury market. With new stores planned, the brand is positioning itself as a serious contender in international high-end retail.
