Congratulations on the gorgeous watch eminere!
I love that it has diamonds, the transparent back case and the fact that it's limited edition!
Will it be an everyday watch or a special occasion watch?

He envisioned the inky night sky as shimmering blue sapphire crystal and shaded mother-of-pearl, and the stars in them sparkling as a constellation of diamonds. And thus, the christal dazzling watch was born:
for those interested in the technical details:
. Automatic movement with white lacquered oscillating weight, visible through a transparent sapphire crystal case back
. Stainless steel case and bracelet
. Bracelet set with 3 rows of blue sapphire crystal and 108 diamonds (1.62 carats)
. Bezel set with 88 diamonds (1.10 carats)
. Graduated mother-of-pearl dial set with 36 diamonds (0.18 carat) of which 24 are luminescent in the dark
. Total 232 diamonds (2.9 carats)
. Hands polished with superluminova
. Edition limited to 500 pieces
the really cool part is that the diamonds on the dial really do glow, just like stars in the night sky, so you can always tell when it is time for a new adventure. :d
thank you for looking at my reveal!
