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

Krewe of Alla introduces new faces to its historic royalty selection for 2025 parade
NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — Shirts, Mardi Gras throws and hula hoops were showcased as the Krewe of Alla prepared their floats for their big night, set for Wednesday, Feb. 26. The Krewe's Captain Adam Strickland says they are excited for the beautiful chaos. 'Our members look like the people who are going to be on the street watching us, and that's what we've been shooting for. This is the city that we love. It's just very important to us that when people find their way to Alla, this family, they feel welcome and they feel like they found their home,' said Strickland. Krewe of Titans rolls in Slidell Being the fifth oldest parading group in New Orleans, the krewe is making history by moving to a weekday time slot. Councilman Freddie King says it'll be a night to remember. 'Born and raised in Algiers. Been going to it several times, and have it on the premiere at night, leading Wednesdays. A great pleasure to see the faces of the kids and everybody looking for throws. The whole experience is very, very exciting,' said King. But they didn't stop there. After 90 years, the Krewe of Alla has selected its first black king and queen. Queen Gian Durand says this event is not only historic for her, but also for the city. She plans to have 23 kids on her float to show them a unique Mardi Gras experience. 'Having the experience so that now, as they get older, they don't have an expectation that this is a Mardi Gras float that looks like I want to be a part of it. So it was, it was really my social experience. I want to show these kids, like right now when they're young, how amazing Mardi Gras [is],' said Durand.

'I learn new things and I learn about the traditions of the crew itself. And it's really like unveiling slowly through time. And I just feel like I'm really being invited into the Alla family and really understanding what the unique cultures of each Mardi Gras crew are like,' said Morrell.
