Start the year with a timepiece that captures the rabbit on a dial or one with the lucky red colour in its full glory or hints of it; the choice is yours to make
Arnold & Son
The dial of the perpetual moon is turned into a canvas for Arnold & Son as it creates the rabbit sitting against a backdrop of black aventurine beneath a mother-of-pearl moon. Let’s not forget that the main draw is the rabbit crafted from 18-carat rose gold. Its expression, its pose and the details of its fur are hand-engraved and burnished to add depth and nuance.
On closer inspection, you will notice in a large aperture, a turning disc reveals the waxing and waning of the moon, the appearance of the crescent moon and its light. It is crafted from mother-of-pearl with painted elements in relief, all enhanced with Super-LumiNova.
Pale during the day, it shines brightly at night and is transformed, its face adorned with details. While those details may provide a sweet distraction, do take note of the dial’s aquatic elements and the pagoda’s windows which are hand-painted with luminescent material. The bunny gets its energy from the A&S1512 calibre developed, produced, decorated, assembled, adjusted and cased up at the brand’s Manufacture in La Chaux-de-Fonds.
