An Elegant Watch for a Real Lady
Are you a follower of elegant style in clothing? Does everybody consider you to be a woman with refined taste? Then the legendary Coco Channel has to be your idol. The queen of style, who laid the foundation to the most famous and smartest Fashion House, was also the foundress of elegancy that cannot be submitted to the influence of time. She just couldn’t live without accessories: a bag, a kerchief, gloves, hats. These pleasant things can always raise any woman's mood and accentuate her individuality. The gorgeous lady Coco Channel knew it very well. The Moschino I love Tahiti watch is an incarnation of the refined taste. It's great to wear this watch with a little black dress, elegant shoes, small cute bag and a string of pearls. Severe but elegant style - you will certainly be considered a very elegant fashionable woman. As for me, this watch is more appropriate for an adult woman than for a young girl. It can be a great gift for your mother or aunt. And I'm sure your lady-boss will be on the on the top of the world if she gets such a nice present for a birthday.

Irresistible Seduction for Stronger Sex
I have always wondered whether there exists a gem-set jewelry watch featuring distinctively masculine design. To tell you the truth, I used to associate jewelry watches with ladies' priority. I considered that if a watch's dial is embellished with gems, the timepiece immediately acquires some kind of feminine look. But I had to change my well-established opinion when I saw the Octo Black Spirit watch by Gerald Genta. I think that the creators of the Octo Black Spirit expressed all their passion for watchmaking through producing such a breath-taking timepiece. There appeared a men's wristwatch which united the art of gem-setting and introduced a new horological vision of jewelry. Being powered by extremely complex tourbillon movement, the watch impresses by a dazzling constellation of precious stones. I'm sure the watch will seem seductive even to a man with the most cool-jewelry-things-resistant character. The Octo Black Spirit has an octagonal-shaped platinum case measuring 42.50 mm in diameter. The tantalum bezel adds distinctive masculine strength and character to the overall watch's image. Meanwhile, the beaded crown featuring a black cabochon sapphire is a real zest. The case-back is reliably protected by a transparent glare-proof sapphire crystal and pentagonal screws. The timepiece is water-resistant to 10 atm.From the first glance at the watch's dial you will notice that the hour display is not conventional. There is a retrograde 240 degrees indication for the hours. This way the pointer never "steps" at the tourbillon territory.

Gorgeous Bvlgari
The new collections of Bvlgari - Parentesi and Rosette - are very different but give the opportunity to better know the Bvlgari style. If we'd try to characterize it, the word neoclassicism would fit the best. The matter is that new Parentesi is a serious face lifting of the old Parentesi - the collection made 10 years ago and that nowadays is out of fashion. The experts have acknowledged that the first Parentesi lost its former attractiveness. It's interesting but the former Parentesi of Italian Bvlgari began looking slightly French - refined and vintage. But the new collection has substituted the old one.

Luxury has got the name
It is a long time that I discovered Van Cleef and Arpels products. However, my knowledge about it was rather superficial. It was also true relative to the timepieces of the Company. How strong was my admiration when I found out Van Cleef and Arpels had been producing watches starting from the early 20th century! I decided to share a couple of my ideas with you, as well as provide you with some useful information about the brand. The very first question that I asked myself looking at creations of Parisian House masters: how did they make it? That's the way to convey my sincere admiration for these sparkling miracles.Back to the pastThe empire of luxury Van Cleef and Arpels that appeared due to the conjugal unit of the diamond cutter's son Alfred Van Cleef and the daughter of the brilliants dealer Estelle Arpels in 1896 continues to surprise and delight watch and jewelry art connoisseurs. Van Cleef and Arpels's blossoming fell on the beginning of 1950th when luxury was worshipped like God. It was the time when Fellini was filming "La dolce vita", when Grace Kelly became a princess of Monaco. The brand was finally fixed in heaven inhabitants' assembly in 1966 as the work upon Iranian shah's crown was finished. Pierre Arpels flied to Iran as others went to their offices and managed to make a magnificent headdress which took one thousand and a half brilliants from the shah's family collection.Love to perfectionThe beauty is absolute and stands no conventionalities.

Jet-Set Classic
Limelight is a classic collection of watches and jewelry pieces from Piaget. In 2006 to a well known Limelight was added the word "Party". The word "party" is key for Swiss watch house Piaget that began producing mechanisms in 1874 and began creating watches for men in 1942. And in 1950-es began producing jewelry watches for ladies. Jewelry-watch style Piaget was finally formed in 1960-es during jet-set époque. The word party together with the name of the collection accentuates its style (glamous, some surrealism and jet-set). On the other hand represents a part of the collection devoted to disco. Limelight Party consists of four parts - "Disco", "Lace", "Champagne" and "Barocco". All the components and styles of a party: disco are parties of 1980-es, lace is an undeniable part of an evening gown, campagne is the main drink of any party plus rich Barocco that is close by style to Lace.In a jewelry section "Champagne" were presented necklaces and earrings made of a great number of small round-cut diamonds. According to the conception, jewels should remind of champagne bubbles in a long glass. There are watches in "Champagne". One of the most harmonious lines Piaget Antiplano has presented several new watches.The best variation has a case made of mother-of-pearl of golden tint of champagne. And white diamonds serve as bubbles. Cool bubbles, isn't it? As for "lace" series it is necklaces and earrings, white gold, diamonds. But there's a really unique unit there - it's small diamond mask that is worn on a single eye.

New Chronograph Model Created by Prominent Italian Designer
A new model of the Manometro Chronograph, has recently updated the prominent Manometro collection created by Giuliano Mazzuoli. The timepiece displays an oversized stainless steel case with polished finish. The boldly designed case measures 45.2 mm in diameter. The watch offers the choice between two dial variations ivory or black. Each option reveals brushed silver sub-dials.
Having maintained the distinctive detail of the initial Manometro model, the chronograph has the crown positioned at 2 o'clock. While the first Manomentro featured a standard crown, the new model has a screw-down crown to guarantee resistance to water and dust. Giuliano Mazzuoli will develop every new Manometro model with the screw-down crown.
Mazzuoli's timekeeping creations have always been characterized by artistic out-of-the-box approach to design. This time the designer has placed the sub-dials at 2 and 8 o'clock instead of sub-dials positioned 3 and 9 o'clock as featured by other watches. The sub-dials are in perfect harmony with the crown. The position of the pushers is also special they are found at the left-hand side of the case at 8 and 10 o'clock. The 8 o'clock button is responsible for the start-stop function, while the 10 o'clock button controls the reset function.
In the heart of Mazzuoli's Manometro Chronograph there beats a Dubois-Depraz automatic chronograph movement based on an ETA caliber. A hand-stitched lizard strap with ergonomic design finely completes the bold look of the timepiece.
Every Mazzuoli's watch from the Manometro collection has enjoyed huge success. The first Manometro model was inspired by a pressure gauge. It sported a perfectly legible dial and attracted much attention of style-makers. It was followed by the Manometro Limited Edition with titanium case provided with a gold PVD finish. In the nearest future Mazzuoli is going to introduce a sporty version of the Manometro constructed from carbon fiber and rubber featuring the unique Manometro proportions.
Nowadays Italian artist Giuliano Mazzuoli has gained the celebrity status of the most creative watch designer in the horological community. Mazuolli is praised for his other unforeseen design projects, such as calendars and writing instruments with unique design suggested by everyday objects.

Very feminine case shape is emphasized by refined lines of a "Captive" bracelet created specially for this model.

Moreover this watch is a fashion thing - as you probably know-everything shining and a little provoking is in fashion now.

And of course a gorgeous Signature 7 is shining on her wrist. It is well known that tastes differ. As for me, I prefer something not so huge and pompous. I find the bracelet a kind of provoking. I prefer something more refined. But everybody has its own fashion preferences. Moreover, the timepiece's price is enormous for me. If I had this money, I'd spend them on something more necessary.

Jules Audemars Ladies'

TourbillonThe Jules Audemars Ladies' Tourbillon is crafted in white or pink gold. The dial of the timepiece in natural white mother-of-pearl is skillfully engraved with a 'spiral' flinque motif. You will notice a diamond on the top of each Roman numeral. This way the watch's creators ensured harmony between the dial and gem-paved bezel. However, when you see the timepiece, your attention will surely be drawn to 6 o'clock and paralyzed by the magic whirl of the tourbillon regulator, a complicated device considerably improving the precision of timekeeping. The escapement organs (these are a wheel, lever and balance) are not assembled in a fixed position. They are found within a mobile carriage rotating once a minute, thus compensating for the gravity effects, particularly when the timepiece is found in a vertical position. One more fascinating detail is that the bridges are embellished with extremely small 'dancing spiral' motifs reflecting the great care given to the movement decoration.
