Published 25 April, 2008, 15:44
Moscow recently had a unique chance to see the new collection of watches and jewellery from de Grisogono. The company's founder and president, Fawaz Gruosi, came to the capital to introduce his unique Meccanico DG timepiece.
Only 177 of them have been made – an exclusivity which makes them hard to resist for fashionistas.
The Meccanico DG is the first mechanical watch to imitate LED segments. Made from titanium, it has both “digital” and analog displays showing the hour in two time zones. It's a novelty which has mesmerised fans of the design house in Moscow.
It's the star attraction of a bright and unusual collection which de Grisogono has shown off at Moscow's House Of Baccarat.
The famous Emir Kusturica band accompanied the show, bringing together the connoisseurs of art “not for the masses”.
De Grisogono creates pieces for exclusive clients.
Though the company was founded only 15 years ago, the ideas of Fawaz Gruosi have already attracted many devotees around over the world.
Black diamonds have become the distinctive mark of Fawaz Gruosi's design. He has developed so-called “icy diamonds” – wonderful stones which almost resemble pearls, but which shine much brighter.
