exquisite square dial that carries six black Roman numerals. The dial itself is a galvanic silver sunray finish – Belisama herself would surely approve of that imagery – with six indexes picked out in sparkling diamonds.


FINE GRADE DIAMONDS


“For the first time, a beautifully crafted mechanical women’s watch, of serious pedigree, is available at accessible price points. We think the goddess Belisama would approve”


In the diamond bezel versions these precious gems also decorate the case, appearing in a glittering column on each side of the dial. In all, 36 full-cut, VVS1, Top Wesselton diamonds – a particularly fine grade of the jewels, higher, incidentally, than those used by Omega – are used in what is CW’s most luxurious watch yet. An ornate blue cabouchon stone decorates the crown. Available initially in either polished stainless steel or a lustrous 18ct gold-plate finish, the hand polished cases are exquisitely complemented by either ethically sourced luxurious alligator straps or beautifully engineered bracelets that have been designed specifically to be comfortable on a smaller wrist. The obsessive attention to fine details continues with the sapphire


crystal dial cover as well as an exhibition viewing window on the reverse of the case giving a clear view of the movement, including the bespoke guilloche work on the rotor arm.


“The Belisama series adds a completely new dimension to our


women’s assortment and, we believe, to the world of women’s watches. For the first time, a beautifully crafted mechanical women’s watch, of serious pedigree, is available at accessible price points. We think the goddess Belisama would approve,” says Chris Ward.
