More than 2,500 hours of development have resulted in a magnificent first for Graff. The Floral Tourbillon is the label’s first ladies timepiece powered by a tourbillon. Providing both function and flair, the exposed mechanism’s framework takes on a lovely floral outline that’s further echoed in delicate, petal-shaped hour and minute hands. Adding color to this bouquet of masterful design are three individually rotating flowers, positioned at eight, nine, and 12 o’clock, which come to life with glittering rubies, sapphires, emeralds, or white diamonds. A diamond bezel and diamond pavé dial provide even more wow-factor to the exquisite watch.
