This bold, black Zenith timepiece is a vision of intensity that’s made from wear-proof black zirconium oxide ceramic. Its faceted 41-mm case boasts a variety of textures, with polished and satin-surfaces. Meanwhile, the open dial and sapphire case back lends an unexpected lightness, all while allowing the wearer to be entranced by the automatic Elite 670 manufacture movement within.

To usher in Chinese New Year, Chopard introduces this exceptional timepiece to celebrate the Year of the Pig. The Japanese art of Urushi is used in the dial, where a golden pig – a symbol of abundance – is set against a multicolored forest background. Powering the 88-piece limited edition watch within is the ultra-thin L.U.C movement, Calibre 96.17-L.

Vacheron Constantin reaches out to collectors and devotees of haute horologerie with its offering for the Year of the Pig. The hand-engraved pig, which is made of platinum or pink gold, is applied on the dial center, while the delicate foliage motif is etched directly on the metal. Another unique feature is the absence of hands, and in its place, apertures that display hours, minutes, date, and day of the week.
