Van Cleef & Arpels has unveiled two new additions to its Perlée Toi & Moi secret watch line, enriching the Perlée Couleurs jewelry collection with striking yellow gold and turquoise stone variations.
Signature Beaded Elegance
The Perlée collection, renowned since the 1920s for its distinctive gold bead motifs, continues to captivate with these latest timepieces. Each watch features a hinged bracelet adorned with meticulously crafted gold beads, culminating in semi-precious gemstones clasped by additional beaded detailing. Concealed behind the vibrant stones, a discreet watch mechanism twists out for functionality without compromising elegance.
Rose Gold and Yellow Gold Editions
The new models include:
- An 18ct rose gold version with green jasper, diamonds, and a white mother-of-pearl dial, priced at £31,200.
- An 18ct yellow gold iteration featuring blue quartz, chrysoprase, diamonds, and a white mother-of-pearl dial, retailing for £32,700.
Both designs boast refined mother-of-pearl dials enhanced by applied golden hour markers and diamond-set bezels, blending horological precision with haute joaillerie craftsmanship.
Coordinating Jewelry Pairings
For a harmonious ensemble, the watch bangles can be paired with complementary Perlée jewelry—such as pendants or rings—featuring polished turquoise orbs or matching gold beadwork. This “tutti frutti” approach allows wearers to layer textures and colors while staying true to the collection’s timeless aesthetic.
Van Cleef & Arpels’ latest releases reaffirm its mastery in merging secret watch innovation with the playful sophistication of high jewelry.
