A collection of ladies’ watches introduced in 2012, the Rendez-Vous is marking its 10th anniversary this year. While originally a time-only with fine jewellery, the Rendez-Vous received an important upgrade in 2016 with the Sonatina model, which incorporates a day-and-night indicator and a useful alarm.
But it’s no ordinary alarm watch, as the presentation of the complications is done extremely well, in that they aren’t visible at first glance. The indicator for the alarm, for example, is a golden star that neighbours the dial flange, making it a decorative element of sorts instead of a functional pointer. At the same time, the day-and-night indicator forms a part of the painting and is again disguised.
The latest Sonatina preserves the good design and is made better with the new metiers d’art dials, which consist of miniature paintings of flora and fauna traditionally revered in several Asian cultures. The new dials in dark colours are arguably more striking than earlier examples with lighter paintings.
