Ladies' watches are the Belles of the Ball at SIHH 2019

The rest of the ladies' watches introduced at SIHH this year were mechanical movements, some of them new F.P.Journe's unisex élégante collection uses the watchmaker's proprietary electromechanical movement that switches to standby mode when motionless, but reverts to the correct time when activated, thus sustaining an eight-year power reserve Roger Dubuis feminized its signature openworked flying tourbillon caliber RD510SQ for the Excalibur Shooting Star, softening its harsh angles by setting diamonds into the movement and enamelling the star-shaped bridges and back plate.

The dials are mother-of-pearl, aventurine or fully set with diamonds The diamonds on the bezel of the dazzling Jaeger-LeCoultre Rendez-Vous Night & Day Jewellery watch are set in two rows, with larger diamonds on the outside and slightly smaller ones lined up precisely beside them on the inside row Chopard has done it in its Happy Sport L'Heure du Diamant watch collections, and Patek Philippe uses a technique of carving out the gold on the side of the bezel to expose more of the diamond pavilion.

In 2018, Piaget introduced gold back into the new collection, and this year steps things up another notch by adding diamonds - 1.53 carats on the bezel-set version and 3.39 carats on the fully set model. . Source
