WATCHES

STEFANO RICCI, the Florentine luxury lifestyle brand for men, recognized worldwide for the quality of its 100% Italian manufacturing, celebrates its 50th Anniversary this year. On the occasion of this milestone moment, the brand has launched the new SR Octagon Black Steel Chronograph in 50 limited edition timepieces.

In a sporty interpretation of the original white gold version, the SR Octagon Black Steel Chronograph is adorned with steel and features a bold design thanks to its ADLC treatment that, in addition to its black color, makes the case extremely hard, increases resistance to external agents, improves the anti-corrosive and anti-wear properties, confers heat dissipation and has good biocompatibility. The purpose of the watch is emphasized by the rose-gold plating of the chronograph spheres. The overall look is enlivened by the PF 315 automatic gauge, visible through the sapphire glass fitted on the case back, created by the prestigious Fleurier manufacturer in Switzerland, the home of fine watchmaking.

This timepiece is the natural evolution of the SR Octagon collection, representing the brand’s debut in Haute Horlogerie.

All SR Octagon watches are designed with theatrical framing on eight sides, a harmony of proportions in a context in which a calibrated Renaissance expression is combined with the purity of a classic approach, creating a watch that is a “World Apart.”

Stefano Ricci, Founder, President, and Designer of the eponymous company, notes that “Florence, the city where I was born, has always been an inspiration for me. Its geometry, architecture, and art convey a sense of incorruptible balance in the face of time.”

SR Octagon watches are produced in three models: Perpetual Calendar, Annual Calendar, and Chronograph. Each one is made in a limited series of 10 pieces, with the manufacturing run also adopted for the Diamond Lux Limited Edition versions, set with the precious stones.

STEFANO RICCI is proud to note that the international press has defined SR Octagon watches as the “Best Investment of the Year.”

Ultimate Emerald Signature

by Harry Winston

THE ULTIMATE EXPRESSION OF THE HOUSE OF HARRY WINSTON

Known as the “King of Diamonds”, it was once estimated that Harry Winston owned more than one-third of the world’s most famous diamonds and gemstones. Often purchased as pieces of rough, Mr. Winston transformed these stones into incredible gems, many of which yielded the emerald-cut shape – from the Jonker to the Vargas to the Lesotho. Celebrating its founder, the House of Harry Winston’s Emerald collection is a series of timepieces that recall the sophistication and strength of Mr.Winston’s preferred diamond-cut – the emerald-cut.

The Ultimate Emerald Signature timepiece dazzles with almost 10 carats of the world’s finest diamonds and gemstones. On its 18-karat white gold emerald-shaped case designed like a pyramid, the different tiers are either set with brilliant-cut or baguette-cut diamonds of increasing dimensions while a majestic emerald-cut diamond, blue sapphire, or Paraíba, crowns the summit. Countering the powerful geometry of the emerald-cut case is an impressive halo of marquise-cut diamonds set so that the stones bask in the limelight. Suspended around the octagonal case with a minimum amount of metal and angled in different directions to catch the light, the 24 marquise-cut diamonds add a dynamic sensation of movement.

The enchantment continues as the secret watch reveals its dial. By swiveling the upper part of the case, the dazzling full diamond, blue sapphire, or Paraíba pavé surface the dial allowing the wearer to consult the time with absolute discretion.

More than 100 hours were required to hand-set the stones in this exceptional creation and is one of the most versatile creations in the Harry Winston High Jewelry collection. The Ultimate Emerald Signature can be worn as timepiece on sleek satin or silk straps, as a pendant or necklace, or even as a brooch.

FROM CLICKS TO BRICKS AN ONLINE SUCCESS STORY

Over the course of the past few years, there has been a steady increase in brick-and-mortar retail stores shuttering their physical locations and transitioning to online sales. This has been in part due to necessity, as consumers living during the global pandemic were forced to find ways to make purchases from the safety of their homes. It has also been driven by the preferences of younger generations who enjoy shopping with the tap of a finger.

However, while many retailers have shifted their gaze to the digital market, there are rare expectations that arise — brands that are instead transitioning from the digital into the physical experience of shopping. These companies are taking shoppers back in time, providing them with the chance to physically interact with a product before making a purchase.

Enter Wrist Aficionado. This luxury watch retailer, born a digital baby, has grown to adopt a hybrid model of operations, providing customers with the opportunity to interact with the brand the way in which they prefer.

From Digital Beginnings

Founded in 2016 as a digital marketplace, Wrist Aficionado was designed to help watch enthusiasts source rare and unique timepieces. The company quickly grew with fans of exclusive brands, such as Rolex, Patek Phillippe, Richard Mille and Audemars Piguet! Wrist aficionado is also the go-to spot for Hermes Birkin bags and Fine jewelry for all occasions, including designers like Tiffany and Bvlgari. Collectors of luxury brands flock to Wrist Aficionado for its unique combination of accessibility, expertise and a carefully curated collection.

And as the company expanded, an opportunity arose. Wrist Aficionado recognized that customers were interested in reconnecting with a tangible shopping experience. Rather than being constrained to a digital storefront, customers expressed the desire to try on watches and speak with a salesperson face-to-face. In response, the brand decided to open retail stores in New York, Miami and Beverly Hills, becoming one of few companies to begin digitally and transition to brick-and-mortar operations.

A Tangible, Luxury Experience

While many retailers closed their doors to the public, Wrist Aficionado is paving the way for the future of luxury shopping. For centuries, luxury purchases have been made with an in-person handshake, and Wrist Aficionado is bringing back the vintage experience alongside its curation of high-end watches. Through the opening of its retail locations, Wrist Aficionado now provides luxury watch buyers the chance to physically see and try on watches with the help of experienced specialists in-store. Additionally, shoppers can browse local artisans’ products and attend premier events.

Positioning their stores in decidedly luxe areas is part of the brand’s elevated approach to shopping, with a New York store located off Fifth Avenue adjacent to Central Park, a Miami location calling the five-star, world-rated Setai Hotel home as well as the brand’s newest addition at the Waldorf Astoria, in sunny Beverly Hills.

The balance of both online and brick-and-mortar options best meets the needs of 21st-century consumers. Looking toward the future, Wrist Aficionado plans to continue to expand its physical reach, opening one to two additional retail stores every year.

Whether it is through a visit to one of their premier retail locations or by visiting their digital storefront, customers will be provided with a true luxury experience when interacting with this innovative brand, o please consider us as a buyer for those special pieces you no longer want to hang on to.

FOR SEEKERS OF BALANCE

FIGHTING FOR THE

In 2021, Richard Mille and Ferrari, driven by their shared quest for perfection, joined forces to create a long-term partnership. Naturally, Richard Mille felt compelled to celebrate this budding relationship by creating an exceptional timepiece. After many years of development, the RM UP-01 Ferrari has emerged, breaking with the Swiss watchmaker’s usual iconography while remaining faithful to its identity, and once again pushing the envelope by taking up the ultra-flat challenge.

WITH THE RM UP-01 FERRARI, RICHARD MILLE IS PROUD TO PRESENT AN ULTRA-FLAT WATCH JUST 1.75 MILLIMETERS THICK. WORKING COLLABORATIVELY ALONGSIDE THE FERRARI TEAM, EXPRESSED MAINLY IN THE CHOICES OF MATERIALS AND THE LINES OF THE WATCH, LENT THE PROJECT PRECISELY THE COMPETITIVE SPIRIT SO ESSENTIAL TO MOST EXCITING ADVENTURES.

The quest to reduce thickness of a watch is one of absolutes, the very conception of many components had to be entirely revisited. The approach selected was to distribute across a large surface area the elements that could no longer be stacked, creating a greater symbiosis between the movement and the titanium case, which mutually stiffens each other. The extremely demanding brief made the movement’s performance a priority, meaning it would have to be a caliber both extremely thin and equipped with a 45-hour power reserve with a balance beating at 4 Hz. The manual-winding RM UP-01 movement with hours, minutes and function selector presents a profile of just 1.18mm and weighs in at 2.28 grams.

The watch’s movement required 3,600 hours of development. In addition, 2,400 hours were dedicated to functional design, and 2,000 hours of labor devoted to the casing. Batteries of tests at every phase of development included a 10-year accelerated aging of parts, water resistance tests, torsional tests, flex tests, and shock resistance tests certifying resistance exceeding 5,000 g’s. As a result, the RM UP-01 Ferrari is not a concept timepiece, but rather a 150-piece limited edition fit for the purpose of everyday wear.

BREAKING NEW GROUND, BOTH TECHNICALLY AND GRAPHICALLY SPEAKING. A HIGH-PRECISION MECHANISM COMBINING MODERN LINES AND PERFORMANCE, AESTHETICS AND RUGGEDNESS. IN SHORT, A WORK OF INCREDIBLE PROWESS TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS SPECIFIC TO A WATCH THAT CAN BE WORN IN ANY SITUATION. A MODEL WORTHY OF THE UNCONDITIONAL ADMIRATION THAT THE PRESTIGIOUS ITALIAN AUTOMOTIVE BRAND INSPIRES ALL OVER THE WORLD.

Haute Parfumerie Vivante

The Beginning

It all started with an intimate first meeting between Henry Cremona and the one who would become his wife, Yvette. Henry and Yvette, aesthetes at heart and avid pleasure seekers, would go on to launch their Perfumery with the sole aim of retaining and celebrating the beauty of life. By creating refined essences in beautiful bottles, at their own pace and wherever their hearts led them, a declining tradition was brought back up to date: French Haute Perfumery. Today, it is carried forth by CEO and daughter of the founders, Anne-Lise Cremona, with Artistic Director Christophe Tollemer.

Les Classiques

Like a living fresco, fifty fragrances—Les Classiques-form the gateway to the Henry Jacques universe. It is this variety that gives Maison Henry Jacques its incredible olfactory freedom. Just like a sartorial gentleman expanding his wardrobe, everyone can build their own olfactory collection. There are those who explore every expression of a key ingredient and others who are more whimsical, venturing from one olfactory family to another.

Essences: A few drops on the skin

This exceptional concentration of juice reincarnates the forgotten, elegant gesture: the perfume is applied directly to the skin with the use of a crystal rod, restoring all its carnal presence.

Solids: A mark of allure

Nestled within its case, the Clic-Clac is a solid version of the perfumes. Once opened, it releases a scented wax, a unique recipe that took years to develop. By reviving the gesture of applying solid perfume, Henry Jacques has not only created a remarkable object but has also reintroduced a mark of allure into our daily lives. Like a precious lighter or a cigarette case, Clic-Clac is one of those companion items that gives its owner an elegant air of poise and nonchalance.

Mists: Splash or spray

This reimagined vision of a spray allows everyone to choose the gesture that best suits the moment: a splash brings the perfume in contact with the skin, or a press of the thumb on the spray forms a delicate cloud over the head and hair like an invisible cocoon. Now available in the United States, discover the fragrances of Henry Jacques at the Henry Jacques Beverly Hills boutique, and online at ParfumsHenryJacques.com

CÉVÉ intends for her sculptures to be both seen and felt in the viewer’s eyes. An internationally renowned artist, CÉVÉ is also a curator for many exhibitions in France and around the globe.

LEO & STEPH

Léo & Steph are a France-Brazilian duo with a true passion for Pop Art who transform everyday objects into unique and exclusive works of art. They imagined an iconic character reflecting our inner child: “Kid Cup.” This faceless, genderless character amuses itself in a colorful and cheerful world. It is resolutely optimistic and “drinks life” from the cup it hardly ever leaves behind.

Innovative and revolutionary horological creator, François-Paul Journe has inspired a generation of contemporary watchmakers with the originality of his creations, his quest for precision, his timeless and immediately recognizable style, and his respect for horological ethics and traditions.

In his Geneva manufacture, at the crossroad of Arts and Haute Ho rology, he honors artisanal work in producing his watches in small series, with exceptional precision and extensive craftsmanship, cre ating only the most exceptional and fine timepieces, with a subtle balance between tradition and new technologies. Their 18 K rose Gold movements make perfect sense of the label ‘Invenit and Fecit’, Latin for invented and made, certifying an in-house caliber entirely conceived and assembled in the Geneva ateliers in which the watch makers assemble their watch one by one.

Known for his creativity, François Paul Journe expresses his feeling for innovation and outstanding craftsmanship through major timepieces such as the Chronomètre à Résonance, the Tourbillon Souverain and the Chronomètre Optimum as well as the Répétition Souveraine or

the Astronomic Souveraine, all of which have granted him the highest horological Awards around the world.

The Chronomètre à Résonance is the only wristwatch in the world that utilizes the physical natural resonance without any mechanical transmission, known in the 18 th century as double pendulum or dou ble balance. The Calibre 152 0 of this emblematic timepiece has two balances beating in perfect synchronization and is a milestone in the constant research for precision of François -Paul Journe. Available in Platinum or in 18 K 6N Gold, in 40 or 42 mm diameter.

At the exclusive F.P.Journe Los Angeles Boutique, the Art of Haute Horology is elegantly declined through a bespoke sense of welcome and visitors can expect only the highest- quality service and seasoned expertise. Crossing the threshold of this magic universe means rediscovering the exclusive world of a limited production combined with the F P.Journe horological passion and know-how.

The F P.Journe Los Angeles Boutique is also the favourite spot for collectors to share their love of fine watchmaking with other watch aficionados.
