TAG Heuer Carrera Lady Diamond
Built for speed, the gorgeous Carrera Calibre 16 Tachymetre is the must-have accessory for women in the fast lane.
Sleekly designed and sporting an automatic mechanical movement, the brown dial, bezel and strap are spiced up by the orange on the chronograph’s central second hand. Stylish and slightly vintage looking, for demanding and dynamic women who never compromise.
Bearing resemblance to its masculine equivalent yet set apart by its feminine charms: a petite 27mm case, 13 diamonds on the index, a diamond-set bezel, steel bracelet and mother-of-pearl dial.
Simplicity and efficiency are the governing style principles, revisited with the TAG Heuer woman’s superlative elegance and grace. (TAG Heuer press)

GRAHAM Chronofighter Oversize Black Label– Limited edition of 500
One of the most pronounced contrasts is the one between black and gold. It is also one of the noblest.
That’s why Graham chose these two colours for a special limited edition of the Chronofighter Oversize. Of course on this watch almost all is gold that glitters.
The bezel, the circle of the minute counter, the reset button of the chronograph interface, even the hex screws of the trigger mechanism, they are all machined out of solid gold. The black caseback is held in place by eight screws and features the Royal Marine coat of arms insignia both in red gold including the number of the piece. This watch edition is limited to 500 pieces.
The 47 mm steel case of this imposing watch has a black PVD coating that is highly scratch resistant. Even the patented chronograph interface with its typical trigger has been blackened to add to the mystery that makes this timepiece so very special.

PIAGET IS THE PERFECT ACCESSORY FOR ZOE SALDANA
One of Hollywood’s hottest rising stars, Zoe Saldana (soon to appear in the new Star Trek film) is also proving to be one of its most stylish.
The actress, who attended New York Fashion Week’s best runway shows and parties —Calvin Klein, Marchesa, DVF, Monique Lhuillier, DSquared2—also knows that a woman isn’t really dressed until she puts on her jewelry.
For Ms. Saldana, the choice was simple—Piaget. She looked elegant and sophisticated at Marchesa, wearing only Piaget’s white gold and diamond tonneau shaped timepiece. At the Calvin Klein 40th Anniversary party she amped-up the glamour on the red carpet, sporting Piaget’s yellow gold and 16 ct citrin honey-inspired cocktail ring and glitter-inspired yellow gold and diamond earrings. Front row at Rosa Cha, Zoe mixed it up perfectly, pairing Piaget’s breath-taking 27 ct. purple amethyst ring, accented with 273 brilliant diamonds, and a pair of white gold and diamond hoops with her simple off-white flowing top.
At the DVF dinner, she turned heads in her white gold and diamond Piaget rose pendant with matching ring which added a little sparkle to her colorful tube dress.
Piaget has had a longstanding love affair with film and fashion and is thrilled to have the stylish Ms. Saldana as an unofficial ambassador and friend of the house. The company hopes to dress her again for the upcoming award show season. (Piaget press)

Citizen Eco-Drive Calendrier
The new Eco-Drive Calendrier watches are the perfect timepieces for a person who seeks for something special!
With a light-powered Eco-Drive movement as the starting point, the watch depicts cosmic space through the earth, moon and sun. The theme of the design is the fusion of space and time.
The dial represents a Calendrier (Calendar) with the earth at its center. Surrounding it are the moon phase at 6 o’clock, the date (symbolizing the sun) at 12 o’clock, and day and month at 9 o’clock and 3 o’clock, respectively.
In a space measuring just a few millimeters thick, the multilayered metallic dial creates a sense of infinite depth and breadth and gives a feeling of continuity with the cosmos. As a design element, the month and day disks, connected to the watch’s rotation mechanism, suggest the movement of heavenly bodies.
The result is the creation of a unique world, and a model that marks the debut of a totally new Eco-Drive.
The Calendrier watches have a power reserve of 6 months, a sapphire glass and a water resistance of 10 bar. The recommended retail price for the metal version is 399,00 Euro and for the leather version 350,00 Euro. (Citizen press)

New Oris BC4 Flight Timer
This is what the future of aviation watches looks like: like the flight instrument from which it takes its inspiration. Everything about this watch screams aviation – right down to the smallest details.
The average aircraft cockpit is packed with essential flight instruments, so you can consider the BC4 Flight Timer your own portable cockpit. It has all the information you need at your fingertips, including the date at 6 o’clock; and with a diameter of 42.70mm it’s a more realistic proposition for those without their own aircraft hangar.
A second time zone with a day/night window is displayed at 3 o’clock, the prominent vertical crown at 2 o’clock turns the special inner dial ring to show a third time zone. It’s a true innovation in the Oris world of aviation. Simple pushers to adjust the time zones mean you don’t need a pilot’s licence to operate this flying machine.

Urbane and elegant, it dazzles in every setting: by day with a boardroom look, or against the sleek silhouette of a fabulous evening gown. (TAG Heuer press)
