Louis Vuitton
Tambour Carpe Diem watch
It took two years of development for the Tambour Carpe Diem to join Louis Vuitton’s watch collections. On the Tambour Carpe Diem, the time can be read on demand. To reveal it, simply push the reptile-shaped push-piece on the right of the case. The central snake’s head lifts up to reveal the hour aperture positioned on the forehead of the skull, while the rattlesnake tail oscillates towards the minutes, placed below the power reserve hourglass.
Tambour Curve GMT Flying Tourbillon
An innovative graphic look, this complication watch dedicated to travel will take off and open up new horizons. The Tambour Curve GMT Flying Tourbillon features a case whose shape is an extrapolation of those of the Tambour Curve Flying Tourbillon Poinçon de Genève, launched last year.
Bvlgari
Serpenti Misteriosi Cleopatra High Jewellery cuff watch
Sensually embracing the wrist, the Serpenti Misteriosi Cleopatra High Jewellery cuff watch reveals an eye-catching new skin presenting a precious surprise: a diamond-set dial, hidden behind a faceted hexagonal see-through rubellite of over 5 carats. An abstract, ultra-contemporary interpretation of the snake, this one-of-a-kind timepiece combines brilliant gemstones with unrivalled craftsmanship and a touch of majestic irreverence.
Octo Finissimo Perpetual Calendar
After exploring ultra-miniaturisation in the fields of the automatic movement as well as the minute repeater, chronograph and tourbillon, Bvlgari presents Octo Finissimo Perpetual Calendar, the slimmest in the world. This new record is available in two variations: the “signature” titanium like all Bvlgari’s World Record, and a platinum version.
Cartier
Tortue/Serpent watch
Baignoire/Tortue Watch
Cartier Libre explores the Maison’s repertoire of signature-shaped watches. A candid look that revisits and shakes up codes, revealing the wealth of inspiration found in Cartier’s watchmaking repertoire. For the third opus, the designers have chosen to combine signature shapes from the Cartier watchmaking repertoire with iconic animals from the Maison’s menagerie. Baignoire/Tortue, Tortue/Serpent: a duo of precious watches is thus born, unexpected and enhanced encounters are interpreted though highly jewelled creations.

Rolex
Oyster Perpetual Datejust 36
The new versions of the Datejust 36 are equipped with calibre 3235, a movement at the forefront of watchmaking technology. The palm motif evokes lush, vibrant tropical forests, and can be seen on Oystersteel and equipped with an Oyster bracelet, the pattern is present on an olive green dial.

Chopard Esperanza
Crafted in ethical 18-carat white gold and entirely set from dial to bracelet with 41.89 carats of Round-cut emeralds and 6.38 carats of diamonds, this Esperanza watch is the first model in the new Red Carpet Collection.
