Description

Perlée watch, 23 mm, yellow gold, guilloché white mother-of-pearl, Swiss quartz movement.

This timeless piece showcases the emblematic gold bead motif, faithful to the tradition of Van Cleef & Arpels. This watch combines gentle curves and subtle details, watchmaking savoir-faire and jewelry inspiration. With its fluid lines and playful spirit, it offers a contemporary take on jewels that tell time. Elegant and feminine, the watch has a round shape fringed with a very modern-looking double row of golden beads, displaying an edge in mirror-polished yellow gold. Beneath a convex glass, a radiating guilloché dial catches the light to create intense reflections.

In the spirit of a jewel watch, it is equipped with a precious bracelet made up entirely of articulated gold bead links and matching the watch’s beaded contour. Extremely flexible, it hugs the wrist like a second skin, ensuring optimal comfort when worn. Using a simple procedure, the bracelet can be changed to match their wearer’s mood.

The time is set using a push-button on the back of the case, which is completely invisible when the watch is worn.

Supplied by the brand to the GPHG for its entry.
