1 2 5 S I M P LY A B U DH A B I T he renowned jeweller Giampiero Bodino began the new year in auspicious style at the Ritz in Paris with his first collection of high jewellery secret watches. The new creations of the lauded Italian jeweller take the form of three models in three distinctive styles. The first, Primavera, captures the simple and spontaneous beauty of sweet briar roses. With three dimensional petals, pavé diamonds and pink sapphires dotted with a few grey diamonds to emphasise shadows and shades as well as grey diamonds and yellow gold, the Primavera watch characterises itself for potent feminine beauty and for the colours of the stones, including cognac, grey and yellow diamonds. The second creation is Mosaico, a watch made with diamonds, black spinels and white gold that has an elegant and geometric form with its rounded pattern. The secret watch is revealed by pressing the discreetly placed button. The final model is Rosa Dei Venti, a spiritual watch that stands out with a stunning Zambian emerald that conceals the watch. The rubies, the sapphire and the white gold combine to form a truly harmonious and spectacular piece. All three timepieces by Giampiero Bodino are one-of-a-kind and are powered by a quartz movement. Bodino has created high jewellery pieces to express perfectly the style and needs of each type of woman, from the most romantic and fun- loving through to the bolder and sophisticated. Each piece appears as a beautiful bracelet, delicately concealing its secret watch.
