Man is making his way through the dark jungle, the sun is obscured by trees. The game is arduous, but he makes his way thanks to a machete and his decisive determination.

Hot and humid, the jungle is a difficult environment with many dangers lurking.

He makes his way to a clearing, to see the sun. The man points the hour hand of his watch to the sun, orients himself, calculates his ground speed and determines that he can reach higher ground and camp before the sun sets. Determined to never give up, the man knows he will be safe.

The man is Bear Grylls and the clock is Luminox

Van't Hoff – Quintessence “Ballet in Blue” Edition

VAN'T HOFF – Quintessence “Ballet in Blue” Gold/Diamonds Edition - Unique piece

"Quintessence" celebrates the oval shape in its purest form. 

A world of beauty to be explored by the art lover.

The deliberate choice to incorporate a minimal sized movement, allows the three-dimensional works of art housed inside this watch to flourish freely, without compromise, enabling the watch case to preserve the pure lines and elegance demanded by the designer. The absence of a crown emphasizes this desire for purity.

Quintessence “Ballet in Blue”

The unique watch "Ballet in Blue" explores the nature in its entire splendor, fragile and ephemeral; the hand sculptured butterflies are positioned on a dial off hand engraved flowers in mother of pearl. The enamel in the wings has been realized by the highly talented Anita Porchet, a true work of refined craftsmanship. This unique edition comes to live in a 3dimensional microcosm with a thickness of up to 5mm under the glass in the center.

The butterfly in the center seems to try to escape from the dial, taking off into the sky. With the enamel “grand feu” on hand engraved white gold, Anita Porchet wanted to bring extra life to the light inside the blue and green enamel by adding tiny silver flakes (paillons) inside the wings of these butterflies, giving this composition a close to real effect.

Each butterfly is manufactured by hand and set with small diamonds on the tip of the wings. The watch case is in “snow setting” with diamonds and blue sapphires.
