A precious tribute to Louis Vuitton’s iconic Monogram Flower, the Star Blossom Fine Jewelry collection debuted new novelties this season.

Welcome to the precious world of high jewelry: Haute Joaillerie, Haute Living's new high jewelry section featuring one-of-a-kind pieces, launches & trends.

The biggest challenge for any watchmaker is to create a design that defies and defines time simultaneously. With its new Tonda PF collection, Parmigiani takes it on and makes a clear case for a return to elegance. Clean lines, attention to detail, and refined movements make these watches a compelling proposition for any watch connoisseur. With their integrated bracelets, they wear like a piece of jewelry, oozing exclusivity in a more chic, restraint way.

Cartier has been for over a century synonymous with form-shaped watches. In some cases, like the Tortue, the inspiration came from the animal kingdom, something we also see extensively in the brand's jewelry collections, both past, and present. But as the "jeweler of kings and king of jewelers," their creativity goes even further, combining the art of watchmaking with that of jewelry in the Cartier Libre collection. Here, anything is possible, such as trading places, dressing up a Baignoire like a turtle, and turning a Tortue into a snake.

With summer getting in full swing, the temperatures are rising, not only outside but also at Harry Winston. While this brand is mainly known for its exquisite jewelry and large diamonds of exceptional quality, they also have an impressive collection of watches. In the Ocean Collection, two new models just joined the line-up, representing summer at its best while also paying tribute to the Project Z10 watch. Harry Winston started with its Project Z timepieces in 2004. They aimed at combining innovative materials with tantalizing complications, a strategy they have stayed loyal to ever since.

At the end of Watches & Wonders, Haute Time talked with Arnaud Carrez, Cartier's International Director of Marketing & Communications, regarding what it is like to have a major watch fair going digital, and how the latest Cartier models came about.

Carbon is a material that holds no secrets anymore for Richard Mille. The brand that loves to push the envelope with its technical and material innovations has mastered it completely and utilizes it in ways that were previously thought impossible. This becomes especially clear with the two new models in the RM 07-01 Automatic collection. Here, Carbon TPT® is not only used for the case but also for the bracelet, taking not only the wearing comfort to a new height but also its style.

Wrist Aficionado, a pre-owned luxury watch specialist and seller, is one of the few modern businesses whose customers prefer a hybrid approach.
