Pure and Sparkling Happy Snowflakes

A gift that would make her heart race on or off the piste is the Happy Snowflakes timepiece.  Taking artistic crafts to new heights, the exquisite watch comes festooned with snow and snowflakes, an anthem to winter. The 36mm 18-carat white gold case, the sapphire crystal and exhibition case-back are engraved with hand-crafted snowflakes, while the bezel glistens like snow in the sunlight with its setting of diamonds. The 18-carat white gold dial adds the icing with a diamond snow-set pattern complemented with intricate mother-of-pearl marquetry snowflakes, three moving diamonds and a snowflake-shaped mobile.  So delicately made, the entire watch gives the illusion that real snow crystals have settled on timepiece.  An elegant glossy white alligator leather strap enhances the frostiness.

A poetic rendition of the mystery of the sky, the opulent dial invites her to embark on a celestial journey with silver-toned constellations standing out against a shimmering blue textured mother-of-pearl disc.  At 12 o’clock, the moon disc covered with white and blue textured mother-of-pearl reproduces the full cycle of the night star. A ring of diamonds forms a radiant halo around this sky that harbours our destiny, framed by Roman numerals and diamond-set hour-markers against a white mother-of-pearl background. The blue shade of the mother-of-pearl dial is picked up in the matching alligator leather strap in chic lavender blue. Thoroughly enchanting, extraordinarily pure and elegantly refined, the Imperiale Moonphase shows Haute Horlogerie at its best and makes a perfect present for the woman who radiates an aura of delicate femininity.
