The elegance of calla lilies help bring out the feminine side of new women's collection
Inspired by the elegance and sensual curves of calla lilies, the design of Baume & Mercier's latest collection, ilea, is steeped in the beauty of these popular flowers.
Specially dedicated to women, the collection features seven watches which come in different materials and designs.
But they also share common features. All the models in the ilea collection have an off-centre diamond on the crown. All the date displays are at 6 o'clock and the hands are dauphine-style rhodium-plated. The watches are all water resistant to 30 metres.
The women's watches are usually smaller than 30mm in diameter, but in this quartz collection, they are 30mm, making them easier to read.
Baume & Mercier strives for innovative changes by exploring new materials and fresh inspirations. The graceful, slender shape of the calla lilies inspired ilea's woman designer to blend these with the shapes of a woman's soft body curves.
