By agreement with Taito Corporation, RJ-Romain Jerome is paying tribute to late-20th century pop culture by launching a double limited-edition of Space Invaders watches. The two 78-piece limited series (in allusion to the year they were launched, 1978) are distinguished by their dial. One is composed of three layers of pixelated and shotpeened dies featuring hand-drawn file strokes.

Cameron Diaz the new face of Tag Heuer

Cameron Diaz

Hollywood actress Cameron Diaz has become the new face of luxury watch brand Tag Heuer.

She has agreed to a very lucrative deal with the luxury Swiss timepiece company to endorse its products.

“Cameron doesn’t do many endorsements, so we think she will make a big splash,” said a source.

Actor Leonardo DiCaprio and golfer Tiger Woods have also been brand ambassadors for Tag Heuer in the past.

What does watch maker Omega do to add to an already amazing collection? Make it even more amazing of course! The newly redesigned Constellation line from Omega unveils its latest star. Every constellation in the universe has its brightest stars, and in Omega’s newly-redesigned Constellation line, nothing glitters more brilliantly than the unique and luxurious Constellation Baguette.

Omega Constellation Baguette

The Constellation Baguette has been created with a strong and vivid visual identity – its dial displays a dramatic supernova structure which emanates boldly from the diamond Constellation star on its mother-of-pearl background at 6 o’clock. The one-of-a-kind masterpiece glistens with 459 Top Wesselton diamonds totalling just over 30 carats.

The “invisible” mounting of the 146 baguette and trapeze diamonds on the dial means that no trace of the 18kt white gold used in the creation of its case can be seen between the precious stones.

Omega Constellation Baguette

Since the Omega Constellation Baguette is a one-of-a-kind horological masterpiece, every single one of its 459 beautiful diamonds has been cut exclusively for the watch.

If even just one of the stones needs to be replaced or exchanged, the process can take longer than it would for a series-production watch. Any new diamond will have to be custom-prepared so that it matches the color, clarity, cut and carat size of the stones around it. In fact, due to the absolutely unique nature of the Constellation Baguette, no standard replacement parts can be kept in stock – each one would have to be specially created for this extraordinary timepiece.

Chanel has chosen to enhance its timepieces by forming a cool partnership with Audemars Piguet. Audemars Piguet is one of the most prestigious Swiss Fine Watch-making manufacturers in the world. We all know who Chanel is so its a match made in heaven!!

J12 Noir Intense

This partnership has lead to the creation of a redesigned and reinvigorated J12 more captivating than the industry thought possible.

Noir Intense, or “Intense Black,” aptly labels this timekeeping masterpiece, which is home to an automatic, three-hand Fine Watch-making movement. The fusion of the AP 3120 movement and Chanel’s J12 ceramic led to the 3125 movement for which Chanel redesigned the balance bridge and the rotor in gold, crowned with black ceramic. The result is the high-performance Chanel-AP 3125.

The 713 insets are diamonds this time, with a total weight of 43 carats, which adorn the case, dial, bezel, crown and bracelet for an impact that is simply breathtaking!
