Blancpain Saint Valentine’s Day 2016: A loveable ladybird

Blancpain is writing a new episode in its enduring love story with women. For this 16th chapter, the Manufacture from Le Brassus has dreamed up a limited edition of its Ladybird model for Valentine’s Day 2016.

The iconic model in Blancpain’s Women collection since 1956, Ladybird was the world’s smallest round watch at the time of its launch. Immediately recognisable by its delightfully curved diminutive size, it is firmly in the spotlight for this most romantic day of the year.

Blancpain has created for this occasion a mother-of-pearl dial adorned with brilliant-cut diamonds. A mother-of-pearl marquetry heart, sparkling with diamonds and rubies on its upper part, sets the perfect finishing touch to the watch face.

The 21.5 mm-diameter white gold case of this Ladybird Saint Valentine’s Day 2016 model is lit up by a bezel set with more than 0.5 carats of diamonds. Beating at the heart of this new two-hand model is the 15.7 mm-diameter self-winding 6150 movement: one of the smallest in the world and now equipped with a silicon balance-spring.

A loveable ladybird

Symbolising love at first sight, a heart pierced by an arrow enhances the watch at 6 o’clock. This removable white gold charm features a ruby heart and and a diamond arrow. First launched at Baselworld 2015, Blancpain charms were specially created for the Ladybird and can be easily attached at 12 or 6 o’clock according to the lucky owner so wishes.

BIG BANG BRODERIE SUGAR SKULL
A new icon is born
The art of fusion with a feminine touch

An unrivalled icon of fusion serving as a showcase for the run-away creativity that is the
essence of Hublot, the Big Bang was born to break established codes and has over time
demonstrated its ability to create exclusivity. The Big Bang 41MM Broderie Sugar Skull bears
witness to this, blending confident femininity and innovation at its very peak.

Having used composite resin, carbon and ceramic, invented Magic Gold and borrowed
denim, the basic essential from our wardrobes, as part of its watchmaking offers…Hublot has
taken the craft away from haute couture, fashion and lingerie so as to free embroidery from
the fixed notions and the traditional ideas that held it.

As an inexhaustible source of inspiration, and interpreted in an unexpected manner, the
embroidery of Saint-Gall is transposed into the art of fusion to reveal all of its modernity and
creative potential for the Big Bang Broderie Sugar Skull.

Turquoise, navy blue, pale pink, fuchsia, yellow, orange, violet… lit with Lurex threads, taking
its inspiration from the lines on the catwalks for the 2016 season, the skull motif on the dial,
with 11 red spinels, and the arabesques on the strap create bold associations of colours.

Turquoise, navy blue, pale pink, fuchsia, yellow, orange, violet… lit with Lurex threads, taking
its inspiration from the lines on the catwalks for the 2016 season, the skull motif on the dial,
with 11 red spinels, and the arabesques on the strap create bold associations of colours. A
remarkable exercise in style that is given its value by the power and the simplicity of the
black ceramic that adorns the case (41 MM) and its bezel set with 36 red spinels.

A new icon is born, at one with confident femininity and glamour.
