DE GRASCDSONO – Occhio Ripetizione Minuti
The Occhio Ripetizione Minuti from 2005, famous for its camera shutter-like aperture dial that reveals its movement when the minute repeater mechanism is activated, returns with a glitzier redux version.
Courting a new generation of moneyed moguls is a spectacular diamond- encrusted variant featuring baguette-cut stones (totaling 18ct) that encircle the dial, pave the case flanks and embellish the lugs.
Glitz aside, the Occhio’s aforementioned signature calling cards reprise their roles on both the case architecture and the hand- winding movement designed in collaboration with Christophe Claret.
Aficionados can pause to admire the action of the hammers and gongs through the sapphire case back, which also showcases the movement’s finely polished screws and meticulous finishing on the anthracite grey bridges and plates. Available in matte blackened 18K white gold with black alligator strap.
ORIS – Bob Dylan Limited Edition
There is little to add on to Bob Dylan’s statuesque pop-star status, but Swiss manufacturer ORIS has taken on the gargantuan
ORIS - Bob Dylan Limited Edition
task of paying tribute to the master songwriter with its Bob Dylan Limited Edition watch. And we have to say, it doesn’t disappoint.
Powered by an automatic ORIS 733 movement and channeling Dylan’s perennial classicism, this timepiece features a stylish stainless steel rectangular case and a plain black leather strap that transcends time and trends, much like the man himself. A swirly patterned dial harks back to the vibrant pop art scene that dominated the 1960s along with Dylan’s then-rising musical star.
And for those who are seeking a more tangible portrayal of Dylan, the watch bears an image of him on the case back as well as his signature on the dial. Shielding the watch on both sides is a sapphire glass that wraps around it coupled with an inner and outer anti-reflective coating.
Limited to 3,000 pieces and presented in an exclusive box set with Dylan’s wind instrument of choice, a Hohner Marine Band harmonica, this timeless watch is the perfect tag-along for any fan worth his salt.
CORUM – Golden Bridge Lady
Horizontal is the new vertical, according to Corum. On the cusp of its 30th anniversary, the brand’s iconic linear Golden Bridge 
mechanism adopts a reclining position in an upsized 41 x 34mm case.
Like Old Master portraits of reclining nudes, the Golden Bridge Lady provides an intimate panorama of its inner beauty. Neatly suspended in mid-air between two sapphire crystals and decked out in resplendent 18K gold, the C0113 movement (dubbed the ‘baguette’) displays its barrel, wheels, gear trains, mainplate and bridges to glorious effect.
On the horizontal flanges, 144 diamonds accentuate this mechanical marvel like stadium floodlights. A further 108 brilliant cuts set into the gently curved case band act as framing devices for this masterpiece, bringing the total carat count to 2.5.
As a parting shot, the crown is set with a mother-of-pearl appliqué. Available in 18K rose gold with a white crocodile strap or 18K white gold with a black crocodile strap.
CHOPARD L.U.C – Tourbillon Lady
12 years, female admirers of Chopard L.U.C’s high complication watches have had to contend with just that – admiration. But 
that has changed with the Tourbillon Lady, the venerable brand’s first foray into dedicated women’s complication watches under its L.U.C in-house manufacture.
But Chopard knows only too well how diamonds are a girl’s best friend sightings of its signature Happy Diamonds collection have been known to send hot-blooded women into ecstatic frenzies – so it has liberally paved the dial, bezel, case, lugs, even crown and cabochon, with bling-bling diamond, all 8.6 carats of them.
Tear yourself away from the dazzle of the brilliants and the baguettes, and you’ll notice how the Tourbillion Bridge morphs into an elegant letter ‘C’. Blued steel hands contrast beautifully against the crystalline purity of the dial that does away with numerals and indexes. For busy bees flitting from meetings and events to cocktails and soirees, the four-barreled L.U.C 4T Calibre works as tirelessly as you do, giving nine days of power reserve, which is indicated by the pointer at ‘12′.
The final act of seduction comes in the form of the transparent case back, which reveals the immaculate movement in its hand-finished, Geneva-striped splendor. Limited to 25 pieces each in 18K rose and white gold with a hand-stitched black alligator strap.
