1 2 1 S I M P LY A B U DH A B I Dolce & Gabbana already have an expansive collection of high-end watches for women, and the new Sofia model is another fine addition that looks set to be a solid seller for the Italian tastemakers. Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana have come up with the goods once more and the Sofia watch is instantly alluring. The impeccable quality of Swiss watchmakers is allied with the Italian duo’s innate feel for appealing style. The Sofia is essentially a square case of rose gold that is polished using a mirror polishing diamond tool, with a series of symmetric geometrical facets expanding from the outside margins onto the sapphire crystal. The perfection of the geometric pattern is obtained from a traditional stonemason’s technique now applied to the surface of this watch resulting in highly original light reflections that enhance the watch, turning it into a unique and beautiful gem. Available in shades of pink, blue, beige, grey and black – any discerning customer can match the dial with a watchstrap made of pure silk satin in the same colour. The octagonal crown is in pink gold with a natural ruby – a symbol of precision and a perfect way to top off this fine timepiece.
