Angular Momentum Crown Jewels Of Nature Enamel Bird Painting Watches

Latest from the Angular Momentum Verre Eglomise Artisan Timepiece collection comes these beautiful enamel painted watches in four varieties with three cockatoo painted dials and one kingfisher. The dials are done in verre eglomise which is reverse enamel painting on a sapphire crystal. The paintings are done in reverse and by hand. Using the Angular Momentum Time Gallery watch case these watches are each done in 18k white gold and are between about 40mm - 41mm wide (which probably feels like a good size given the very thin bezel, and yes each is a slightly different size).

Diamonds decorate the thin bezels and lug structures, while each watch has an attached alligator strap. Inside the watch is an automatic mechanical movement. Time is read digitally (this is digital too) through the window placed at 12 or 6 o'clock. The rest of the dial is dedicated to the limited edition paintings. This is not the first time that Angular Momentum has presented enamel paintings of birds, but each new collection impresses me. Interestingly, this collection has three different images of cockatoo birds - each in a different pose - and a beautiful version with a kingfisher bird. I must admit not being sure what the namesake bird of an Indian beer has in common with a popular clever shoulder avian, but I like the watches. Prices are likely at least $25,000 - $30,000 each.

Angular Momentum Magnificent Verre �glomis� Double Baguettes Watch

Filed under: Jewelry, Timepieces / Watches

This watch represents what jewelry watches are all about these days. Tasteful, beautiful, decadent objects often custom made, and impressive to behold. From the Artisan Magnificent Jewelry Timepiece collection comes this Verre Èglomisé Double Baguettes watch from Swiss company Angular Momentum. The watch focuses on two current popular trends: highly decorated dials and baguette cut diamonds. Angular Momentum's Artisan Timepiece collection highlights the brand's aptitude in eglomise (reverse glass enamel painting). This rich floral bouquet displayed here is worthy of royalty, framed by three rows of diamonds. The inner two row of baguette shaped diamonds are cut to be gently tapered.

Common to Angular Momentum, the two- piece pavé diamond set case is steel in a satin finish with a polished edge. Steel has some advantages over white gold, especially in its ability to hold a polish. Inside the watch is an automatic mechanical movement, powering the singular disc displaying the time through the dial window. The Verre Èglomisé Double Baguettes watch is a custom creation from Angular Momentum who specializes in satisfying clients with apparently dream-like luxury desires.
