A NEW RENDEZ-VOUS DAZZLING from JAEGER-LECOULTRE for u MOM

The Rendez-Vous Dazzling Night & Day has been reimagined this year in green, to be the essence of femininity… an homage to the unspoilt nature that surrounds Jaeger-LeCoultre’s home in the Vallée de Joux and provides a perpetual source of inspiration...

With its glowing green dial, the new Rendez-Vous Dazzling Night & Day is a visually arresting expression of Jaeger-LeCoultre’s dedication to precision and creativity in both the mechanical aspect of watchmaking and the decorative crafts.

168 diamonds draws the eye to the rich colour of the dial.... & 108 diamonds on the bezel, form two concentric rings around the case. A classical jewellery technique that requires great precision, claw setting is designed to maximise the presence of each stone by allowing light to pass through the diamonds from every angle while minimising the visible metal. The fine gold claws hold the diamonds high, giving the impression that they are floating around the watch case, rather than anchored to it. Completing the case, an inverted diamond is set into the winding crown and three diamonds are set on each of the four lugs.

On the dial, an inner circle of 47 diamonds draws the eye to the Night & Day indication. Set on a disc that rotates every 24 hours, a pink gold crescent moon with a backdrop of stars slowly alternates with a polished golden sun as night turns to day. Signature elements of the Rendez-Vous Dazzling add further refinement: hours are marked by applied Arabic numerals in the emblematic Floral style and polished golden hemispheres.

The transparent sapphire case-back reveals some fine decoration and finishing in classical watchmaking style: blued screws, circular graining on the wheels, and Côtes de Genève on the plates and the open-worked pink gold winding rotor.
