Van Cleef & Arpels’ Charming Watch

Tuesday. 4 November. 2008. 9:33 am

Van Cleef & Arpels‘ Charms watch is one of the most divine looking watches we’ve come across lately.

The watch is round and has a dazzling bezel, depending on the model, comes with two lines of round diamonds separated by a ribbon of polished gold or a line of diamonds. These successive frames with the slightly curved profile give the case a subtle volume enough for the Van Cleef & Arpels signature to be engraved on its side.

What stands out is Van Cleef & Arpels signature Alhambra diamond-set charm that dangles on the side of the case by a ring. This lucky four leaf clover turns freely around the dial and is a very charming detail. We love the interchangeable straps, in white, sky blue leather or black satin so that you can match your watch with any occasion. How thoughtful!
