Dior VIII Grand Bal Coquette Montaigne watch

EDITOR'S REVIEW

The belle of the ball is this one-of-a-kind Dior VIII Grand Bal Coquette Montaigne watch, which performs spectacular pirouettes thanks to Dior’s exclusive inversé automatic movement. The oscillating weight – or rotor – is placed on the dial, and its graceful rotations recreate the swirling movement of a ball gown. Embellished with feathers, sapphires, amethysts and diamonds, the rotor hypnotises the spectator as it glides across the brilliant green malachite dial. Even the sapphire crystal on the caseback protecting the movement is tinted green, as is the empire green alligator strap.
