Patek Philippe Grand Complications Celestial Ref. 6104R in rose gold
The Patek Philippe Grand Complications Celestial is undeniably stunning. In classic black, an elegant sky decoration stretches across the dial in this version, which is encapsulated in a rose gold case and the addition of baguette diamonds along the bezel. It has all the workings of a sky chat, moon passages, phases and orbits, and locating the brightest star that is Sirius, thanks to the 240 LU CL C caliber.

Omega
Omega Seamaster 300 in 18k yellow gold with green malachite dial
While stone dials and yellow gold watches are not a revolutionary combination, the viridian nature of this Omega Seamaster is multi-dimensional, with linear layers of green peeking through the bold gold appliqués. The full green ensemble is completed with a ceramic bezel and leather strap, and operates on the cal. 8913 automatic-winding movement.

Made by French craftswoman Emilie Moutard-Martin, the elaborate dial on this Altiplano piece is composed of tiny slices of peacock, duck and rooster feathers, with added silver leaf highlights.

Mido
Mido Rainflower in stainless steel gold PVD with pink calf leather strap
If you must know, Mido’s Rainflower collection is inspired by our very own ArtScience Museum. The petal engraving on the dial is an imagined aerial view of the building, which in fact is a designed after a lotus and reimagined to create an illusion that it floats on the water’s surface. Available in five editions, the mother-of-pearl dial in a brown version lends additional colors of pink and teal through its sheen.
