Description
Pont des AmoureuxBorn of the imagination of Van Cleef Arpels, Poetic Complications unveil a new way to perceive Fine Watchmaking: the discreet precision of the complication movements is combined with the creative virtuosity of the Maison's workshops. Van Cleef Arpels thus bestows an intimate dimension on to these precious timepieces, that of Time that moves to the pace of happiness and emotions.The story begins under an autumn sky in the most beautiful city in the world. Surrounded by centuries of history, two lovers set off to meet each other. On a dial of contre-jour enamelling, the Pont des Amoureux timepiece sets the scene for two lovers who mark the time as their romantic stroll brings them closer and closer, until they finally meet. Moving to a retrograde movement, each character advances towards the other until midnight: they come together at last, celebrating their eternal love.
