Alex Fong and Kevin Chu interpret“There is a Gentleman in Every Man: Honour and Legacy”

Vigourous, gentle, classy, daring, virtuous, pure… gentleman charisma can come in many facets. Swimmers-turned-actors Alex Fong and Kevin Chu have been invited to join another six Oriental Gentlemen to represent 2019 Oriental Watch Sha Tin Trophy Gentlemen’s Bow Tie Raceday as ambassadors. Elegantly and humourously, they demonstrate the appreciative yet competitive nature of brotherhood in a video, delivering charisma, strength and glamour.

           


Both former members of the Hong Kong swimming team, Alex represented Hong Kong at 2000 Sydney Olympics and still holds two swimming records in Hong Kong that remain unbeaten, while Kevin Chu, who joined the swimming team at the age of 14, represented Hong Kong in the Asian Games, Summer Universiade and FINA World Swimming Championships. Both charming athletes subsequently gained foothold in the entertainment industry, through which they have garnered fame and success. The two that have shared many similar qualities and experiences playfully manifest “There is a Gentleman in Every Man: Honour and Legacy”, the spirit put forward by 2019 Oriental Watch Sha Tin Trophy Gentlemen’s Bow Tie Raceday. Swimmers or actors, Alex and Kevin make every second counts as time carries special meanings to them. The timepiece sitting on their wrists not only enhances their charisma as a gentleman, but is also their closest companion. Like swimming, horseracing is also a sport that competes with time. Although the two have already retired from their athlete career, being a member of the Oriental Fine Gentlemen will definitely once again ignite their perseverance in keeping up with time and upholding gentleman’s spirit.

It is with much delight that Oriental Watch Company will join hands with The Hong Kong Jockey Club once again to present 2019 Oriental Watch Sha Tin Trophy Gentlemen’s Bow Tie Raceday on 20th October 2019 at Sha Tin Racecourse, inviting racegoers to dress in attires adorned with bow ties or bow-related elements.
