A striking example of bejeweled timepiece, the present lot impresses, beyond its overall look, especially by the remarkable size and quality of the gem-setting. Two baguette-cut diamonds adorn each lug, and 22 princess-cut diamonds are encrusted in the band. The crown and buckle as well are diamond-set, but the main aesthetic effect is entrusted to 28 massive baguette-cut sapphires set in the bezel.
