“…Effortless by day and exquisitely refined by night, these luminous timepieces blur the line between watchmaking and high jewellery. Curated by #legend_TH, each design celebrates the art of diamond setting, where time is not only measured but worn as an expression of taste and modern elegance…”
Baignoire
Few silhouettes in watchmaking are as instantly recognisable as Cartier’s Baignoire. Introduced in 1912 and inspired by the curve of a bathtub, its oval case has transcended eras with effortless grace. The softly rounded bracelet wraps the wrist like a precious gold bangle, compact and poetic, with a vintage allure that feels unmistakably modern. Pavé diamonds amplify its sensuality: 171 diamonds trace the case, while 380 brilliant cut diamonds illuminate the bracelet. A domed sapphire crystal mirrors the curvature of the design, while a diamond set crown adds a discreet sparkle. The grained silvered dial, anthracite Roman numerals, and blued sword shaped hands complete a composition of quiet sophistication. In total, 552 diamonds are set by hand, a process that requires eight hours of meticulous craftsmanship.
PREMIÈRE GALON
For those who favour jewellery first elegance, PREMIÈRE GALON offers a watch that feels more like a couture bracelet. The iconic octagonal PREMIÈRE case is softened by galon, a braided trim borrowed from French tailoring, reimagined here as a plaited metal bracelet. The most captivating expression arrives in 18K yellow gold, adorned with pavé diamonds across both dial and bracelet. CHANEL invites playful styling through its campaign imagery, pairing the watch with COCO CRUSH bracelets for a look that feels layered, modern, and effortlessly chic.
Panthère de Cartier
Cartier’s Panthère has long embodied feline elegance, but recent cultural moments have propelled it firmly back into the spotlight. After Taylor Swift wore the watch during her engagement last year, the Panthère once again became the dress watch everyone is watching. The mini version, available in white gold or rose gold, is framed by diamonds along the case and bracelet. Classic Roman numerals and the signature railway track dial anchor the design in Cartier’s timeless codes, making it a symbol of refined glamour with modern appeal.
Serpenti Tubogas
Few watches project power quite like Bvlgari’s Serpenti. A symbol of strength, sensuality, and transformation, the Serpenti Tubogas in rose gold coils around the wrist with hypnotic elegance. Pavé diamonds shimmer across the dial and bezel, while the flexible Tubogas bracelet, offered in double or triple wraps, creates a sculptural silhouette that feels both bold and fluid. A rubellite set crown, a signature of the collection, adds a final flash of colour against the warmth of pink gold.
Limelight Gala
With its asymmetrical lugs and flowing lines, Piaget’s Limelight Gala is jewellery watchmaking at its most expressive. Diamonds cascade from the lugs into the bezel, creating a sense of movement that catches the light from every angle. Crafted in 18K rose gold, the case and bracelet are entirely hand engraved with Piaget’s signature Décor Palace motif, enveloping the watch in rich texture. The matching dial completes the look, offering understated elegance with a distinctly artistic edge. A timepiece for those who see their watch as wearable art.
