In September 2023, Nattawin was named Friend of the Maison Southeast Asia for Swiss luxury watchmaker and jeweler, Piaget.[10] Shortly after his second collaboration with Piaget in April 2024, Nattawin is appointed as Global Ambassador of Piaget.[11] This marked a significant moment as the first Thai global ambassador for the 150 years old brand.[12]
