BRIDAL BOUQUET

Say it with flowers (and diamonds) with a botanically inspired piece

Translating the magic of a fairytale garden into an horological fantasy, while also giving a nod to Christian Dior’s horticultural passions, is Dior’s dreamily indulgent Grand Soir Aquarelle timepiece. Under the glass blooms a white gold and pink gold flower, its petals studded with roundcut pink sapphires and tinted glass in a play on volume that adds layers of detail to the watch face. Pear-cut and round-cut diamonds drift across a fabric dial that looks to have been daubed with a paintbrush, with the paint blossoming over the face and infusing the white leather watch strap with colour.
