Knockoff Watches Wholesale Watch of the Day: Van Cleef & Arpels – The Lady Arpels Poetic Wish

This amazing creation comes from the Poetic Complications collection and is a perfect marriage of creativity, innovation, craftmanship and of course poetry.

Today’s Knockoff Watches Wholesale Watch of the Day is The Lady Arpels Poetic Wish Watch, launched by the Maison Van Cleef Arpels this year. This amazing creation comes from the Poetic Complications collection and is a perfect marriage of creativity, innovation, craftmanship and of course poetry.

The Haute Minute

This amazing creation comes from the Poetic Complications collection and is a perfect marriage of creativity, innovation, craftmanship and of course poetry.

Each of the Poetic Complications pieces created are genuine marvels that tell a story. In the Lady Arpels Poetic Wish timepiece, we see an amazing enamel dial showing a view of Paris through the eyes of a little girl standing on the terrace of the Eiffel Tower.

The story continues to be told when the pusher triggers a 5-minute repeater telling the time with a series of gongs reminiscent of Notre-Dame’s Cathedral bells, also shown on the dial. Once the scene is activated, the girl moves to the dial center and a kite appears and carries the girls wish – a truly poetic creation by Van Cleef Arpels.

This beautiful timepiece is white gold with a case measuring 39 mm. The watch bezel is fully encrusted in brilliant VVS clarity diamonds and shown here with a pearl grey moiré silk and calfskin strap.
