Perrelet’s Diamond Flower Collection

Posted by Dennis Ramillo on 28th August 2008

Among watch connoisseurs, Perrelet is a name associated with automatic movement. After all, Abraham Louis Perrelet invented the first watch capable of winding itself eliminating the constant need to wind it.

With the new Diamond Flower Collection, however, a new association could be made; that of jewelry wristwatches. The collection offers timepieces of exquisite beauty, transcending the realm of mechanical genius, enveloping the land of aesthetics, of intricate designs and inspiring work of arts. What Perrelet have is a watch that is more than just a watch, more than a very remarkable watch, but jewelry in the form of a watch.

It’s not just a simple fusion, mind, but a functioning one. The jewelry is not only there to provide beauty. It is a part of the mechanical movement, a part of the miniature architecture that powers the watch. The eye-catching diamond flower on the face of the dial moves when the wearer moves, and the minute energy produced by its movements are stored to be utilized as an added power source for the automatic movement.

This makes watches from Perrelet’s Diamond Flower Collection truly remarkable. They’re not just ordinary jewelries, not just ordinary watches, they are both. For the modern woman, this is a perfect piece to showcase their active lifestyle, a lifestyle that has changed a lot from the traditional ways of the past. It’s a perfect fit: a watch that is more than a traditional timepiece for a woman modern and sophisticated in her ways. This timepiece is jewelry, a watch, a highlight, a compliment, and best of all, a work of art.
