(Scottsdale, Ariz.) With more than 379 years of history, Molina Fine Jewelers has exemplified passion and perfection for hundreds of years and that old-world tradition of craftsmanship will proudly be on display at the Scottsdale Ferrari-Maserati Polo Championships on Saturday, November 2nd.
Guests looking for a high-end VIP experience should reserve their seats now for the Molina tent. Sponsored by Molina, the Molina Fine Jewelers Drivers and Players VIP Lounge offers polo guests a relaxing field-side polo experience under the beautiful white tent. As part of the Molina Drivers and Players Lounge experience at the Polo Party, guests can meet and mingle with the drivers and players while viewing a beautiful display of rare and radiant jewels and tasting special wines provided by Penfolds.
Just outside the entrance to the Molina tent all polo goers will have the opportunity to win a Molina Signature Stainless Steel Watch with quartz movement, rotating bezel, 20 ATM water resistance and date display. The watch sells for $550 and the winner can choose between a men’s or ladies style.
Lastly, what would polo be without teams vying for the coveted cup? Thanks to the generosity and design excellence by Molina Fine Jewelers, The Molina Cup has been created by the Design Studio at Molina Fine Jewelers in Phoenix, Arizona. The Molina Cup, which stands 24 inches tall, and includes horses and polo mallets crafted in silver, will be a great ending gift to the 2013 Scottsdale Ferrari-Maserati Polo Championships.
“At Molina Fine Jewelers we strive for passion, perfection and the perfect pairing,” said Alfredo Molina, Chairman of Molina Fine Jewelers. “Between our beautiful tented experience, fine jewels, watch on display and the Molina Cup, we are proud to be part of an event which will continue to be a signature event for the City of Scottsdale for many years to come.”
