India-Inspired Watches

Vacheron Constantin
Métiers d’Art Fabuleux Ornements – India manuscript
Framed by a pink gold case topped by a diamond-set bezel, ten vibrant enamel colours blossom on the dial. These shimmering shades form oriental-inspired flowers blooming against a blue sky. The watch expresses the vivacity and richness of Indian illustrations. The contours of its décor are first traced using the champlevé technique to create cavities separated by thin gold partitions in order to apply
the enamels.
