Angular Momentum Magnificent Blossoms Watch

If you've noticed that I mention Angular Momentum watches often, it is with good reason as there is no end to the beautiful creations that this Swiss watch maker releases. The creation du jour is the ladies' Magnificent Blossoms watch, another creation made possible by the large surface area available in watches using Angular Momentum's disc hour system. The popular automatic mechanical movement is based on a single disc visible through a variably sized window. The hour disc can be painted in any number of ways. On the Magnificent Blossoms watch the hour disc is decorated with purple cursive hour indicators. It's a charming looking offering a feminine touch, but lacks time reading precision.

Diamonds on this watch total 20 carats. The diamond decorated steel case and lugs have deep set gems, while the dial itself features an entirely new application of diamonds. Angular Momentum has developed a technique for setting diamonds on the reserve side of the sapphire crystal which have pear-shaped diamonds that are arranged in floral patterns using round cut diamonds of a different shade. The white alligator strap enhances the black tones of the dial and helps bring out the jewel shapes. This is one of the most simple and attractive women's watches coming from Angular Momentum. I can't see any woman being disappointed with this watch, unless they need to know exactly what time it is.
