SXSW’S style queen
Name: Cristina Fisher Role: Manager of “Special Projects” at SXSW, including SXstyle programming (March 11-13) during Interactive. The look: “My closet is mostly vintage.” Style haunts: Curated vintage shops like Laced with Romance, Feathers Boutique Vintage, Las Cruxes, Charm School Vintage, Moss/Garment. South by Shopping: “East Austin is great to explore. You’ll stumble onto an awesome rack of clothing or jewelry in a coffee shop, bookstore, or even popped up behind a bar.” SXstyle in short: “It grew naturally within Interactive, as technology started this love affair with fashion. We talk about everything from the future of retail to robots to queer style.” Fest inspiration: “SXSW is a dysfunctional Fashion Week, in the best way. Highfashion folk come during Interactive, and then thousands of effortlessly cool artists trail in during Music. I’m always taking mental notes on unique pieces and crazy outfit ideas.”

Vacheron Constantin unveils its new Fabuleux Ornements collection of timepieces. An in-house-made, ultrathin 117-part movement powers each watch in this series celebrating the decorative arts of different cultures. This version ($135,000), based on Chinese embroidery, is crafted in 18k gold and features a jade cloisonné dial with hand-engraved leaves of mother-of-pearl and pink opal surrounded by 145 round-cut diamonds. Just 20 pieces will be made. vacheron-constantin.com The complex Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda Tourbillon 1950 (price on request) features an in-house-designed and -built 60-second tourbillon escapement and an ultrathin PF 517 movement that houses the world’s lightest tourbillon cage. The gray mother-of-pearl dial has a fine cut at 7 o’clock (a nod to the time, 7:08, when the founder of the brand was born), that offers a view of the tourbillon aperture. Jack Ryan, 3520 Bee Cave Road, 512-732-2408; parmigiani.ch In honor of the 85th anniversary of the famed Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso (with a case that turns over to offer a second dial), the brand unveils a host of new Reversos, including the One Duetto Moon ($11,500). Powered by a manually wound mechanical movement, the watch displays two faces: One side offers the moon phase via a mother-of-pearl lunar disk; the other side is a classic time indication of hours and minutes. jaeger-lecoultre.com
FOR THE LADIES: STUN THEM WITH substance
For the past few years, premier watch brands attending the Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie (SIHH) in Geneva have given greater face time to the fairer sex when it comes to mechanical-watch offerings (savvy women also care about what’s under the hood). In response, a host of brands are giving women timepieces with substance, blending state-of-the-art technology with beautiful design to create a complete
Piaget also looks to the night sky with the new Limelight Stella ($29,700), the brand’s first complication created just for women. Powered by a mechanical movement, it features a diamond-adorned moon-phase indication at 12 o’clock as well as an aperture base and case bedecked in diamonds. But the watch is driven by serious technology: The astronomical moon depiction requires a mere one-day correction after 122 years. Sam L. Majors, 2727 Exposition Blvd., 512-473-0078; piaget.com
package that speaks to both form and function. In the watch industry over the past half-decade, fans, fanatics, and connoisseurs have witnessed the term métiers d’art take on a life of its own, and this year is no exception. In fact, several brands have gone above and beyond when it comes to designing watch dials as mini canvases—the results are stellar masterpieces that, in another form, could easily grace art-museum walls.

Richard Mille unveils the RM 67-01 Automatic Extra Flat skeletonized watch ($85,000), which houses an all-new movement that is as thin as it gets (3.6mm). For strength, the baseplate and bridges are constructed of Grade 5 titanium, and the metal numerals mounted on titanium rails are filled with LumiNova for extra readability. richardmille.com For more watch features and expanded coverage, go to austinway.com/ watches-and-jewelry.
