Your star sign can now help guide you to the perfect timepiece
Earlier this year, Van Cleef & Arpels debuted a range of men's watches called Zodiac Lumineux, which featured the 12 star signs on an enamel watch face and an exclusive light-on-demand module. Now, the female version of these watches have arrived.
Lady Arpels Zodiac Lumineux is part of the brand's Poetry of Time collection, which pays homage to the spectacle of the heavens and stars. Each timepiece illuminates one of the twelve signs of the Western Zodiac and is set on a 38mm diameter case in white gold with diamonds, and features a glitter blue enamel dial with translucent blue enamel beads, and a glitter blue alligator strap. Depending on your star sign, each zodiac variation is finished with different stones, including diamonds and yellow and blue sapphires.
