The integrated lugs that soften the geometry of the case have also been set alight with diamonds of differing sizes as has the folding clasp. In all, 511 grade IF diamonds (4.16 carats) decorate the external surfaces. The diamond pavé dial continues with the opulent theme and has been set with 345 diamonds (1.07 carats) arranged in a circular pattern, interrupted at 3 o’clock to accommodate the date window.
The hands, treated with a luminescent coating for maximum legibility, circle the dial with its applied pink gold hour markers and minute indices.

A proprietary self-winding manufacture movement - calibre 3120 - powers the hours, minutes, central seconds and date functions. Designed for women who appreciate the value of time and the time that has been invested in the craftsmanship of the watch, the transparent sapphire crystal case back allows for a full view of the automatic movement with its gold 22-carat axe-shaped rotor.
