Van Cleef & Arpels : deux collections inspirées des signes du zodiaque pour homme et femme

L’imagination et la créativité de la marque horlogère Van Cleef & Arpels ne cesseront d’épater les amateurs de l’horlogerie de luxe. La maison vise toujours plus loin pour donner fruit à de véritables œuvres d’art à porter au poignet. C’est à l’occasion de l’édition 2018 du SIHH que la maison a dévoilé deux collections inspirées des signes du Zodiaque. Une pour la gent masculine, notamment, la Midnight Zodiac Lumineux et une autre pour la gent féminine, la Lady Arpels Zodiac Lumineux. Des collections composées de douze modèles qui vous invitent à plonger dans l’univers du cosmos avec le scintillement des étoiles. On peut donc admirer l’éclat des douze signes astrologiques occidentaux, qui s’illuminent à la demande des billes en émail. Et cela grâce à une énergie électrique produite via le mouvement mécanique de la montre. Il est à noter que ce mouvement à remontage automatique a été développé pour la première fois en 2016 pour la montre Modnight Nuit Lumineuse de la maison.

La technologie de la piézoélectricité valorise les signes du Zodiaque

La maison Van Cleef & Arpels a toujours porté un intérêt particulier pour le thème des signes astrologiques, et cela depuis les années 50. Voilà pourquoi elle a tenu à donner vie aux douze signes sur des cadrans lumineux puisant son origine dans la technologie de piézoélectricité. Ce phénomène, analysé depuis le XVIIème siècle, définit la propriété de certains matériaux à se charger électriquement lorsqu’ils sont soumis à des contraintes mécaniques. Tous les signes astrologiques ont donc été représentés de manière très design et harmonieux sur chaque cadran étincelant : Bélier, Taureau, Gémeaux, Cancer, Lion, Vierge, Balance, Scorpion, Sagittaire, Capricorne, Verseau et Poissons.

La maison a dévoilé ses premiers modèles pour hommes en janvier 2018. Et voilà qu’elle l’a complété récemment avec un ensemble de douze modèles féminins Lady Arpels Zodiac Lumineux.

Le module exclusif lumière à la demande a été conçu spécialement pour Van Cleef & Arpels. Il intègre une lame en céramique dont la vibration, suscitée par le mouvement, engendre la production d’une énergie électrique de manière mécanique. Cette énergie passe ensuite vers quatre à six diodes électroluminescentes qui permettent aux billes d’émail translucides visibles sur le cadran de s’illuminer à la demande. Une prouesse horlogère et un savoir-faire des ateliers de Meyrin qui distinguent la maison.

Des garde-temps de toute élégance 

Tout comme le système électrique et intelligent permettant l’illumination des billes, le design des montres de ces deux collections est élégant et raffiné. Les couleurs évoquent immédiatement l’univers astral. Chaque modèle a été finement sculpté en or blanc. La version masculine est dotée d’un boitier de 42 mm de diamètre pour 12,55 mm d’épaisseur. Celle pour femme est cependant équipée d’un boitier plus petit mais plus épais, qui fait 38 mm de diamètre pour 13,8 mm d’épaisseur. En outre, pour apporter une touche plus féminine à la collection pour femmes, la maison a orné le boitier de diamants s’harmonisant avec l’éclat des signes affichés sur le cadran.

Quant au cadran, on a un fond en émail bleu pailleté, reflétant la coûte céleste. Sur les versions féminines, les figures se parent d’or blanc ou jaune avec des pierres précieuses et d’émail. Afin de créer un effet de profondeur relatant le cosmos, Van Cleef & Arpels y a intégré un bleu intensément pailleté, nuancé par un jeu d’ombres et de clarté.

Pour obtenir un rendu parfait et précis, les détails de ces collections ont été travaillés avec soin et minutie. Les quatre éléments sont retranscrits via différentes tonalités de pierres et d’émail. Pour représenter la terre, la marque a misé sur du vert, pour le feu, elle a choisi l’orangé et enfin des dégradés de bleu ou de violet pour les signes d’air et d’eau. On peut également distinguer plusieurs points au sein de chaque constellation. Notamment, des billes d’émail délicates qui ont été conçues à la main et assemblées au cadran. L’illumination de certaines d’entre elles rappelle directement les étoiles.

    Some tips i have observed in terms of computer memory is that often there are specs such as SDRAM, DDR etc, that must match the specs of the mother board. If the computer’s motherboard is pretty current and there are no os issues, changing the storage space literally normally requires under one hour. It’s one of the easiest laptop or computer upgrade procedures one can picture. Thanks for giving your ideas.

  8. I have noticed that over the course of developing a relationship with real estate managers, you’ll be able to come to understand that, in most real estate contract, a commission amount is paid. All things considered, FSBO sellers really don’t « save » the commission payment. Rather, they struggle to earn the commission by doing the agent’s occupation. In accomplishing this, they shell out their money plus time to execute, as best they’re able to, the responsibilities of an adviser. Those duties include exposing the home by marketing, presenting the home to willing buyers, developing a sense of buyer emergency in order to make prompt an offer, arranging home inspections, taking on qualification investigations with the loan company, supervising repairs, and facilitating the closing of the deal.

  9. I am now not sure where you are getting your info, however good topic. I must spend some time learning more or figuring out more. Thank you for wonderful info I used to be on the lookout for this info for my mission.

  11. Thanks for your short article. I would also like to say that a health insurance agent also works well with the benefit of the particular coordinators of any group insurance. The health insurance agent is given a listing of benefits searched for by an individual or a group coordinator. Exactly what a broker will is look for individuals and also coordinators that best complement those demands. Then he reveals his tips and if each party agree, the actual broker formulates legal contract between the 2 parties.

The other element is that any time a problem develops with a laptop motherboard, persons should not take the risk of repairing that themselves because if it is not done correctly it can lead to irreparable damage to the complete laptop. It’s usually safe just to approach your dealer of a laptop with the repair of motherboard. They have technicians who have an experience in dealing with notebook computer motherboard issues and can make right analysis and carry out repairs.

    Thanks for your helpful article. Other thing is that mesothelioma cancer is generally a result of the breathing of fibres from mesothelioma, which is a dangerous material. Its commonly noticed among workers in the construction industry with long experience of asbestos. It is also caused by living in asbestos insulated buildings for long periods of time, Inherited genes plays a huge role, and some folks are more vulnerable towards the risk compared to others.

  27. I haven?t checked in here for some time as I thought it was getting boring, but the last several posts are great quality so I guess I?ll add you back to my everyday bloglist. You deserve it my friend 🙂

  28. Thanks for the points you have contributed here. Something else I would like to state is that pc memory demands generally go up along with other advances in the technological know-how. For instance, whenever new generations of cpus are introduced to the market, there is certainly usually a similar increase in the size demands of both personal computer memory as well as hard drive room. This is because software program operated by means of these cpus will inevitably surge in power to benefit from the new know-how.

    naturally like your website but you have to check the spelling on several of your posts. Many of them are rife with spelling problems and I find it very bothersome to tell the truth nevertheless I?ll definitely come back again.

  32. Thanks a lot for the helpful write-up. It is also my belief that mesothelioma has an very long latency time, which means that indication of the disease might not emerge right up until 30 to 50 years after the original exposure to mesothelioma. Pleural mesothelioma, that’s the most common style and affects the area throughout the lungs, might result in shortness of breath, chest muscles pains, and also a persistent coughing, which may bring on coughing up blood.

  33. Thank you for the sensible critique. Me & my neighbor were just preparing to do a little research on this. We got a grab a book from our area library but I think I learned more from this post. I’m very glad to see such great info being shared freely out there.

  34. A few things i have observed in terms of computer memory is the fact there are specific features such as SDRAM, DDR etc, that must fit in with the specific features of the mother board.

  36. Thanks for your strategies. One thing I’ve got noticed is always that banks along with financial institutions understand the spending habits of consumers as well as understand that most people max away their cards around the breaks. They smartly take advantage of this particular fact and commence flooding a person’s inbox as well as snail-mail box together with hundreds of Zero APR credit card offers shortly after the holiday season concludes. Knowing that if you are like 98 in the American public, you’ll jump at the opportunity to consolidate card debt and switch balances for 0 interest rates credit cards.

  37. An interesting discussion is worth comment. I believe that you should write extra on this matter, it might not be a taboo topic but generally people are not sufficient to speak on such topics. To the next. Cheers

    Thanks for your publication. One other thing is that individual American states have their very own laws that will affect house owners, which makes it extremely tough for the Congress to come up with a different set of recommendations concerning property foreclosures on homeowners. The problem is that every state provides own laws and regulations which may interact in a negative manner in regards to foreclosure insurance policies.

  46. One other thing I would like to talk about is that as an alternative to trying to suit all your online degree programs on days and nights that you finish work (as most people are exhausted when they go back home), try to find most of your sessions on the weekends and only one or two courses on weekdays, even if it means taking some time away from your saturdays. This is beneficial because on the week-ends, you will be more rested in addition to concentrated with school work. Thx for the different ideas I have realized from your website.

A tremendous reduction in junk food, sugary food items, fried foods, sugary foods, red meat, and whitened flour products might be necessary. Having wastes organisms, and toxins may prevent targets for fat loss.
