A timepiece is the garnish of your drip; be it fun and fabulous or stylish and sporty, the right watch can either make or break your get-up. However, if you’re looking for truly masterful creations that can go on just about any attire, then you’ve come to the right place.
From welcoming Lady Luck to feeding your childhood nostalgia, here are truly radiant pieces you don’t want to miss out on.
Oris ProPilot X Miss Piggy Edition
Yes, believe it or not, the luxury Swiss watch manufacturer has collaborated with the beloved musical ensemble “The Muppets.” Back in 2023, the two joined forces to create a special lime-green timepiece that featured Kermit the Frog. Finally, after almost two years, Kermit’s other half, Miss Piggy, is getting her own dazzling watch in hot pink.
Coming in a fashionable 34mm multi-piece stainless steel case that spotlights the brilliant hot pink dial with matching tonal indices, the watch is a stunner. To add a bit of flair that fits the beloved puppet’s character, a single baguette diamond is placed at the 12 o’ clock mark, adding a touch of glamour and shimmer to the largely metallic body.
To prove that this is a Miss Piggy inspiration, the watch includes a playful detail on the case back, which is a small window that holds a picture of the iconic Muppet. This image is placed on a lilac rotor that disappears and reappears periodically, thanks in large part to the Swiss-made automatic movement powering the chronograph that also has a 42-hour power reserve.
The ProPilot X Miss Piggy Edition is priced at RM14,800 and is available for purchase now at Oris’ official website.
Louis Vuitton Escale Cabinet Of Wonders “Snake’s Jungle”
Being lucky this Lunar New Year is one thing; doing so in absolute style is another. Unveiled during the Cabinet of Wonders, the Louis Vuitton Escale Cabinet of Wonders “Snake’s Jungle” is the latest creation of the French luxury brand in the field of timepieces.
Being the Year of the Wood Snake, this timepiece depicts a vigorous serpent nestled nicely in a verdant bamboo forest. Gorgeous and intricate dials have been meticulously hand-engraved with champlevé enamel by master artisans Eddy Jaquet and Vanessa Leccim, while multi-material marquetry was brought to life through Rose Saneuil. What is truly astonishing about the dial is that it has been crafted with wood, parchment, and straw that was seamlessly processed and transformed to display up to 14 shades of green, among other colours.
This lush greenery goes beyond the confines of the dial. The bamboo forest, particularly its leaves, is depicted to be bursting around the bezel and sides of the white gold case, symbolise the untamable force of nature.
Furthermore, the piece displays some Japanese design and patterns, namely the iconic wave motif, which you can largely see through the watch’s internals through the open caseback. The Japanese theming does not stop there, as the strap features a tsukamaki, a special weaving technique seen in many traditional swords from the eastern country. The wrapping also comes in a dark emerald green, which blends nicely with the piece’s earthy palette.
With only 20 units available globally, Escale Cabinet of Wonders “Snake’s Jungle” retails for US$285,571 (~RM1,285,637). You may enquire or purchase through physical Louis Vuitton stores. To see the closest location near you, go here.
