Wear the moon as jewelry and become the centerpiece of the evening. The Masterpiece Phase de Lune Dame is exceptionally elegant with its precious mother-of-pearl dial housed inside a stainless steel case bejeweled with genuine sapphire cabochons.
The sophisticated ML 37 calibre powers the hours, minutes, and seconds as well as day of the week and month off center, and the date from a central hand. For a look of pure luxury, 4 diamonds top the quarter hours, and a bezel of 50 diamonds enshrines your time (Top Wesselton VS, 0.835 ct). Wear the glamour on a genuine ostrich leather strap.

Maurice Lacroix just unveiled their stunning Memoire 1 which houses a number of innovations under the Memoire’s sleek watch face.
This is the first mechanical watch with a memory function. Inside the white gold case is a 48 jewel automatic movement, transparent mineral based hour disc, and a chronograph with “mechanical memory” that can remember elapsed times.
For example, you can switch into chrono mode, setting the hands to 12 o’clock and then revert to watch mode and the hands will flit back to their correct position.
It should be with a retail price of £135,000 ($270,000).
