When it comes to timepieces and exceptional dials, creativity has reached new unprecedented levels. Every watchmaking and jewelry house has a special way in redefining the concept of a dial with an artistic feel.
Mother Nature stays on top of the list of elements that constitute a main source of inspiration for creative minds. From the peacock that made an appearance on each of Bvlgari’s, Fabergé’s and Harry Winston’s watches, to the flowers that keep on blooming on the likes of Jaeger-LeCoultre’s, Piaget’s and Boucheron’s dials, to the tiger and other creatures that adorn the watches of Cartier and Bovet, the list is far from being limited. Gemstones come next, leaving Chaumet and Fabergé with exceptional designs. And while Bvlgari used its name’s letters to add a creative flair to the dial of its new LVCEA watch, Dior opted for couture-like diamond-set embroideries. Even poetry, which was conceived as a way to take us on a journey to dreamy places that we thought were reachable only through the eyes of a reader, paved its way to a dial that took Hermès’ creativity to new unprecedented levels. And of course, the list could never be complete without of touch of geometry, with Hermès also taking the lead through its new Arceau H Déco watch.
Join us in taking a look at these timepieces that stand out with their exceptionally creative dials.
