GRIEB & BENZINGER - White Dragon Pavé

 








 
Grieb & Benzinger - White Dragon Pavé


GRIEB & BENZINGER, the masters of skeletonized watches known for extraordinary horological creations, have now produced a unique piece together with one of the most prestigious watch shops in the world: MARCUS watch boutique, at home in London’s fine Bond Street. In the watch industry, MARCUS watch boutique is well-known as a hot spot for unusual collector’s watches of the kind that one would never even find in the glass cases of the world’s largest watch fair, BaselWorld.

The White Dragon Pavé fascinates the eye right from the first glance with an unusual dial whose center comprises a hand-skeletonized, hand-engraved and hand-guilloché dragon surrounded by 369 fine Top Wesselton diamonds set in pavé style. The bezel is set with the finest square-cut, Princess-style diamonds. The brilliance of these fascinating diamonds is hardly to be described with mere words, and in the sunny home of the collector lucky enough to call the White Dragon Pavé his or her own, the owner will probably need sunglasses when looking at it.

The movement visible through the sapphire crystal case back is –as can and should be expected – atypical GRIEB & BENZINGER work of art. One look shows how filigreed the saw and graver tool were utilized to create the visible art: guilloché, skeletonization, and engraving done by hand as far as the eye can see.

Housed in a solid 43 mm case crafted in 18-karat palladium-white gold, the White Dragon Pavé once again proves to be a priceless eye-catcher that confirms the exclusivity of the watches originating in GRIEB & BENZINGER’s workshops, standing out in a market flooded with mass luxury.

The meager amount of production of a maximum of 100 pieces per year, a result of the enormous technical range of manufacture accomplished by hand, makes these watches rare, exclusive and oh-so desirable for the collector.

JEANRICHARD - Neroscope Limited Edition NEW

The Aeroscope chronograph, inspired from the techno style of cockpit instruments, evokes the universe of the sky. JEANRICHARD took a new look at this aeronautic spirit in a limited edition, creatively playing with all the nuances of black. The model was named Neroscope – a contraction of nero (black) and Aeroscope. The light, robust titanium case is coated in night-black DLC; its emblematic cushion-shaped design, with a large, round bezel, has been discreetly enhanced by alternating "vertical satin" and sanded finishing on the flat surfaces and bezel respectively.

The "all-black" stealth look extends onto the "vertical satin-brushed" dial, with "circular satin-brushed" counters and Arab numerals, indexes and open-worked "arrow" hands covered in black luminescent coating. The rubber strap in the same hue features a rhythmic stripe relief with a double JR signature and a double deployment clasp that ensures comfort and reliability. The automatic chronograph movement measures aerial exploits with great precision.

Eyes and fingers quickly master the functions thanks to the elongate pushers of carbon fibre and the large crown that is easy to handle. Daring, racy, unique, the Neroscope is manufactured in a limited edition of 500 pieces worldwide. It has all the impact and mystery of black – to accompany the most beautiful night or daytime flights.
