Patek Philippe « Diamonds & Dust

Patek Philippe

I’ve been looking for the perfect watch for a while now. It’s so difficult choosing one that will suit your style, outfits and other jewelry.

My sister showed me this Patek Philippe watch. Yes, I am swooning over it right now, although I could probably never afford it.

Wait until you hear what this watch is made out of…

“With its charming case in warm rose-gold framed by a convex bezel, the new Ref. 7000 is a timepiece of great beauty. Nine applied Breguet numerals in 18K rose gold and dainty rose-gold pearls at the periphery of the dial are placed along the hour and minute circles, accenting the easily legible, open face of the watch.”

In the latest issue of Vintage Lifestyle, there’s an article on Patek Philippe. The most interesting part for me was one of their pocket watches being auctioned for $11,000,000 (R88milllion). Wow.

I hope you all have a great week.

I do really like the band. I’m looking for the perfect watch too–probably a La Mer.

It’s so beautiful, Nicole! I never leave the house without my watch.
Watches are my absolute favourite accessories. I prefer them to any jewelry. They must have a simple, elegant design and to have a masculine style, just as this one. And this one is perfect!
