Fine gentleman Terrance Lau took a stroll around Hong Kong and tailor-made a never-before-seen route for the Gentlemen’s Bow Tie Virtual Walk

Hong Kong, a charming city that offers immense diversity – well-known as a buzzling international hub, while being graced with tranquil landscapes; embraced by an enchanting harbour, and spirited with monumental skyscrapers. A perfect fusion of East and West, the city has never ceased to excel in a multifaceted and eclectic charisma. Featuring diversity yet amity, agility and prudence, an elegant appearance and a cultured mind… Hong Kong shares multiple attributes of a fine gentleman. Talented actor Terrance Lau, Ambassador of the 2021 Oriental Watch 60th Anniversary Sha Tin Trophy Gentlemen’s Bow Tie Raceday, took a stroll around Hong Kong, the city he was born and raised, in a gentleman’s suit and bow tie, exploring every corner of the metropolis to tailor-make a route for the Gentlemen’s Bow Tie Virtual Walk of the 2021 Oriental Watch 60th Anniversary Sha Tin Trophy Gentlemen’s Bow Tie Raceday. The Gentlemen’s Bow Tie Virtual Walk will be open to public for free from 25th September to 3rd October 2021 at Hysan Place in Causeway Bay. Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls… all are welcome to experience the spirit of “There is a Gentleman in Every Man”.

To further promote the gentlemen’s virtue and the spirit of “There is a Gentleman in Every Man” to the larger public, the Gentlemen’s Bow Tie Virtual Walk is held as a teaser for the Raceday. Presented in a groundbreaking approach, the custom-made AR game guides the player through an eye-opening stroll around Hong Kong, enjoying the city in a never-before-seen angle. The player starts their virtual journey by choosing an outfit featuring a bow tie or a bow, and then cruise along the breathtaking scenery and iconic landmarks of Hong Kong by stepping on the sensors. Easter Eggs will be provided by Terrance along the way to guarantee an exciting journey full of laughter and fun. Players will be timed for completing the strolls and clips of their recorded experience will be available for their sharing on social media platforms. For those who are interested to learn more about gentlemen’s attires, the bow tie exhibition opposite the AR game will be another attraction, while a real-size model horse will be available outside the game booth for photography purpose. Looking forward to enjoying the Gentlemen’s Bow Tie Virtual Walk without having to set foot outside? A Gentlemen’s Bow Tie Virtual Walk Instagram filter is on its way for free downloads.

Terrance’s dynamic and poetic walk around Hong Kong has been documented in an alluring video. He remarks, “Hong Kong, the city where I was born and raised, is very dear to my heart. I am particularly excited to have a chance to participate in the creation of this avant-garde Gentlemen’s Bow Tie Virtual Walk. I have always felt and cherished the special connection to every stone, every tree, every building, every soul… of this city. The sophisticated grace of Hong Kong resembles that of a gentleman.
