While I am not necessarily in love with the looks of this watch, I do like what went in to it. The new
Nina Ricci N031 timepieces for ladies uses Milanese thin mesh metal which wraps around itself like a hard candy wrapper. A true combination between a bracelet and a watch, the N031 hugs the wrist as the "C" style bracelet can be adjusted for size. Thin mesh metal is quite hard to work with in many applications, so I truly like the creativity here. It is a piece that looks good with denim or a gown. The watch itself is 28mm wide and comes with a variety of dial choices as well as diamond decoration options. Inside the watch is a Swiss Ronda 751 quartz movement. Crystal is mineral, but with one of those sapphire coatings that make them a bit more scratch resistant. For the right outfit and women, this is an interesting piece.
