Continuing with the same theme of the men’s watch, the 33-mm Riviera Chinese New Year Limited Edition – Year of the Dragon Automatic 10743,which is featuring a movement with 38 hours power reserve, features a soaring gilded dragon on the case back to symbolize good fortune to reach new heights in the upcoming year. The brilliant-cut top Wesselton diamonds set on the bezel and the gilded PVD steel ring in the case middle exude a sense of nobility, honour and wealth, further adding a layer of  sophistication to the timepiece.

The exquisite transparent wave decor on the white natural mother-of-pearl dial depicts the force of waves crashing against rocks. An aperture at 3 o’clock reveals the date. The gilded riveted Roman numerals and indexes, as well as the faceted gilded hour, minute and seconds hands coated with Superluminova (C1, blue emission), provide a pleasing contrast to the sleek red line running along the octogonal crown. The combination of gold and red colours, traditionally associated with nobility and joy in Chinese culture, signals a new year of abundance and prosperity.

Prominently located at 6 o'clock on the dial of the Riviera Chinese New Year Limited Edition – Year of the Dragon Baumatic Moon-phase Date 10744, the moon phase indicator is adorned with a gilded dragon, which represents Yang, and a gilded moon as a symbol of Yin, in a subtle nod to the ancient Chinese philosophy that harmony is created through the union of Yin and Yang.
