Alexander Shorokhoff's New 'Bella & Alla' Is Next-Level Timepiece Drip!
Love can be expressed in countless ways: through a delicate flower, the powerful words 'I love you', or sincere acts of affection.
And that is precisely what Alexander Shorokhov has done! In a beautiful gesture of devotion, he dedicated this watch, named 'Bella & Alla', to his wife Alla.
This watch is not just a timepiece but a symbol of his boundless love for her.
With a bouquet of flowers in the form of a watch, lovingly hand-painted with delicate blooms, he presents her with a reminder of their shared love that will forever flourish.
The 'Bella & Alla' is undoubtedly a true masterpiece. The floral pattern was initially stamped and etched into the appropriate shape with utmost precision. This was followed by elaborate hand engravings, bringing each detail of the flowers to life and emphasising their authenticity.
Only after this meticulous process was the dial refined with elegant yellow gold, and then the enamel was applied by hand, giving each petal an unparalleled vibrancy.
The case embodies true craftsmanship and attention to detail. Finished with an elegant black PVD coating, it radiates refined sophistication. One of its standout features is the construction of the lugs: these are meticulously welded to the case back after the central case segment has undergone a highly intricate enamelling process.
Along the sides, three fine recesses are hand-filled with delicate pastel enamel – each colour precisely applied in timed intervals and carefully dried.
This elaborate process creates a vibrant, artistic finish that mirrors the dial's colour palette. To allow for this level of detail, the enamelling must be performed on a case without lugs, ensuring absolute precision and purity in the design.
To perform this fine and precise work, a lug-free case is required. Each colour is carefully applied in different time intervals and then dried, creating a unique and detailed finish.
The hour and minute hands are yellow-gold, matching the elegant dial.
A luxurious alligator leather strap in vibrant fuchsia red, complemented by an engraved solid stainless steel pin buckle, was specially selected for this model to highlight its unique character.
The watch is powered by a high-quality Swiss automatic movement with a hand-engraved and refined rotor, blued screws, and 21 jewels.
It boasts a power reserve of approximately 47 hours and offers a view through the round sapphire crystal case back, unlike other models with the same case, which feature four colourful crystals.
With a strict limitation of only 13 pieces, this model will not be available forever.
However, the love and appreciation that Alexander Shorokhov expresses to his wife through this watch will live on forever.
Alexander Shorokhoff watches are available at Red Army Watches boutiques located at 1Utama Shopping Centre or Pavilion KL & online at www.redarmywatches.com.my.

#SHOWBIZ: Bella's son Ayden completes 400m sea swim, receives praise from Syed Saddiq
KUALA LUMPUR: Actress and singer Bella Astillah's 8-year-old son, Ayden Adrean Aliff, has showcased remarkable swimming prowess by completing a 400-metre sea swim after only a week of training. Ayden participated in the Langkawi Swim Fest at Tanjung Rhu yesterday, much to the surprise and immense pride of his mother. Bella, 31, shared her astonishment and joy on Instagram, saying, "Ayden is amazing, after only a week of training he has been able to swim 400 metres in the sea." She added that his achievement left her speechless, noting, "He gave his all, and reached the finishing line safe and sound." The feat was particularly significant for Bella, who admitted to being traumatised by a past experience while swimming in the sea. "I thank God that Ayden is not like me, and he has proven himself to be brave and competitive," said Bella, who shed tears of joy upon hearing about her son's successful swim. Bella and her former husband, Singaporean singer and actor Aliff Aziz, have two children: Ayden and five-year-old Ara Adreanna Aliff. Adding to the celebration, Muar Member of Parliament Syed Saddiq also offered his support and praised Ayden for his accomplishment. In the comments section, he expressed his pride in Ayden's "amazing achievements" despite his young age. "He has the heart of a lion by conquering his first open water swim with just a week of training, despite being fearful of the sea before," Syed Saddiq posted. "His discipline, determination, and unwavering grit are truly inspiring. He embodies what it means to push boundaries and achieve greatness at any age. "Ayden, soon to be Iron Kid," he added.

Foreign visitors capture the heart of Kaamatan through their lens
ARMED with their cameras, Polish couple Darek Kalinski and Agnieszka Witusik spent Saturday (May 31) immersed in the colours, sounds and spirit of Sabah's Kaamatan grand finale. Their lenses captured not just images, but a cultural experience they described as unforgettable. Snapping away under the blazing sun at the Kadazandusun Cultural Association (KDCA) in Penampang, the couple were visibly awed by the vibrant procession of locals dressed in traditional attire, lining the pathway to welcome dignitaries and guests. 'This is not just a festival. It was alive. We want to photograph everything, the details in the costumes, the music, the smiles,' said Kalinski, 64, who, along with Witusik, 53, was on his first visit to Sabah. The couple, currently on a three-week Borneo adventure, said discovering the Kaamatan Festival was a fortunate, spontaneous twist in their plans. While planning their journey, they had come across mentions of the celebration but struggled to find clear information online. 'We were not even sure we would be able to catch it. The lack of official details made planning difficult, so we started our trip in Sarawak, thinking we might miss it altogether,' Kalinski explained. But a lucky online post revealing the dates of the two-day festival finale on May 30 and 31 prompted a spontaneous detour to Sabah. What was meant to be a brief stopover turned into a three-day stay, as they became fully immersed not just in the atmosphere but also in the energy of the crowd, the rhythm of traditional dances and the warmth of the people. 'The colours, the dancing, the people … it all came together in such a natural, heartfelt way. You cannot help but be drawn into it,' said Witusik, scrolling through photos they had taken. After experiencing the highlights of Kaamatan, the couple plan to return to Sarawak to visit the Mulu Caves before heading to Brunei, and will eventually return to Sabah for the final leg of their trip in Sandakan. But both agreed that Kaamatan had already left the deepest impression. 'We really hope more information will be made available online in future. This is something truly special, a real cultural treasure. We have taken so many photos to share with our friends back home,' said Kalinski. Also attending the celebration was Swiss retiree Marco Brudermann, 66, who described Kaamatan as 'refreshingly uncommercial and deeply sincere.' He was accompanied by his long-time friend Liliane Blume, 64, also from Switzerland, who has lived in Sabah for the past 18 years. Fresh from a journey through Manila and Zamboanga in the Philippines, Brudermann, a sociocultural anthropologist, noted that while there are similar traditional festivals back home, Sabah's connection to folklore and ancestral identity feels equally strong. 'You can feel the sincerity. The people are not just putting on a show … they are celebrating something deeply meaningful. It touches the soul,' he said. Having travelled extensively for work, Brudermann said being in Sabah during Kaamatan was a uniquely enriching experience. 'Sabahans are becoming increasingly committed to preserving their traditions, and it is beautiful to witness,' he added. Blume, a former German teacher at the Borneo Tourism Institute, agreed. 'This is not just a performance. Kaamatan is a living, breathing tradition. People are genuinely proud of their heritage, and you can feel that everywhere,' she said.
