Crafted in inky lapis lazuli, the new Jaeger-LeCoultre Rendez-Vous Dazzling Moon Lazura sports a moonphase display drawn in milky white mother-of-pearl, with the moon suspended under polished gold constellations that map the night sky in accurate detail.
The night scene is lit up by the halo of floating diamonds encircling the dial, which are held aloft by claws in a brilliant refraction of light. On the edge of the face sits a gold star; controlled by the second crown, it is designed to mark an extra-special calendar date – a function surely made with your wedding day in mind.
Technicality meets detailing
The marriage of high technicality and exquisite jewellery detailing found in the Jaeger-LeCoultre Rendez-Vous watch marks almost two centuries of intricate watch design. Founded in 1833 in the Vallée de Joux, the brand continues to design, craft and decorate every aspect of its timepieces from its home in the Swiss Jura mountains for a diverse collection of watches ranging from the classic Reverso to the technically impressive Atmos.
Add the Jaeger-LeCoultre Rendez-Vous watch to a bridal look for a modern take on matrimonial elegance. For further wedding inspiration, let us introduce Weddingpaper*, Wallpaper’s first dip into nuptial nirvana, as seen in the October 2021, 25th Anniversary Issue and coming to Wallpaper.com throughout this week. Forget the conventional and the staid; here, tradition comes with a twist and frou frou frills with a velvet blue mule.
Whether it’s pairing the cool metal hues of a rose gold wristwatch with the billowing folds of an In-Grid Bride gown, or juxtaposing a luminescent Mikimoto pearl brooch against the mischievous polka dots of a Dunhill shirt, brides and grooms are sure to find something style wise to love. Wedding guests, too, take note: our chic and sculptural guide to timeless gifting puts the days of mismatched china long behind us, making for a very modern take on wedded bliss.
