The Roger Dubuis Velvet Passionate Diva is the most dazzling ladies’ watch unveiled at this year’s Watches & Wonders. Its 36mm white gold case and dial are magnificently set with 304 diamonds, totaling 11.13 carats, while at 12 and 6 o’clock, two 0.52-carat baguette-cut rubies bring a striking contrast of color. The vivid red silk strap enhances this refined balance of brilliance and passion, making the entire piece radiate elegant allure.
While fully diamond-set watches often carry a sense of distance and austerity, the Velvet Passionate Diva’s ruby accents imbue the design with warmth and approachability, giving it a softer, more wearable femininity that pairs effortlessly with both couture and daily wear.
At its heart beats the Roger Dubuis RD821 automatic movement, composed of 172 parts and offering a 48-hour power reserve. Understanding the delicacy of satin, the watch also comes with an additional fabric strap for more frequent use.
