Description

THE PRESTIGE OF PARIS ON YOUR WRIST CHARRIOLs ST-TROPEZ collection is our most glamorous feminine watch collection for women. The range is inspired by everything chic and French, as epitomised by its eternally appealing namesake Riviera town. Femininity and style are the bywords of this range, constantly updated. Now, CHARRIOL releases a brand-new variant, inspired by another eternally chic city, Paris. The ST-TROPEZ Mansart takes its name from Jules Hardouin-Mansart, one of the most influential European architects of the 17th century. His classical style is behind many of Paris famous buildings and squares, including the Place Vendme. Designed in an octagonal shape, Place Vendme is synonymous with a formal architectural beauty that has inspired artists, couturiers and moviemakers over the centuries. Still today, the elegance of this famous square lives on, inspiring the worlds most luxurious brands, hotels and couture houses to make their home on Place Vendme. Taking our cue from the elegance of this square, we have re-worked the ST-TROPEZ watch in homage to Mansarts creations. ST-TROPEZs usual circular case is replaced by a petite rectangular version (25mm * 30mm) with angled edges, to form an octagonal shape. Three styles become ever more precious: a warm yellow-gold version, a rose-gold variant with diamonds at each corner of the bezel, or steel versions set with 61 diamonds. Dials come in two styles and reflect the elegance of the famous Parisian square: they shimmer with a white mother of pearl dial set with diamond counters and an opaline seconds counter, or come with an engraved white mother of pearl and seconds hand at 6 oclock. As always with our ST-TROPEZ timepieces, the watch is fitted with our signature twisted steel cable strap, and pretty chain bracelet. French chic is always in style: with the ST-TROPEZ Mansart, women can show their affinity with Parisian style on their sleeve!
