The Swiss watch brand and the London fashion house have established a partnership that goes far beyond the catwalk to include private, co-hosted VIPclient experiences around the globe. The goal? Showcasing the luxury labels\u2019 shared values of no-compromise craftsmanship and inspired design.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRalph &amp; Russo represents talent at the highest level, mixed with simplicity and authenticity,\u201d says Fran\u00e7ois-Henry Bennahmias, CEO of Audemars Piguet, who notes that the watch brand has always cultivated cross-disciplinary collaborations with likeminded companies. \u201cFirst and foremost, it was their human values and absolute talent that drew us to work with them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ralph &amp; Russo\u2019s spring\/summer readyto-wear presentation was complemented by downsized 34-mm versions of Audemars Piguet\u2019s flagship Royal Oak \u2014 one of the world\u2019s most coveted men\u2019s watches.<\/p>\n<p>Petite aficionados will continue to have the option of a 33-mm quartz-powered Royal Oak, but for those who prefer an authentic mechanical movement, the new Royal Oak Selfwinding 34-mm lineup consists of four variations in stainless steel, 18-k pink gold and mixed-metals, with prices ranging from $18,300 to $44,500. The steel version offers a streamlined silver-toned dial or, for a little more pizzazz, a blue-gray dial is paired with a diamond-set bezel. The solid-gold model also shines, with a silver-toned dial and a generous splash of diamonds on the bezel.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16434706\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone aligncenter\"><img class=\"size-nypost-large-desktop-uncropped wp-image-16434706 lazyload\" alt=\"Models for Ralph &amp; Russo\u2019s spring 2021 collections sported gorgeous frocks along with Audemars Piguet timepieces, including the brand\u2019s &lt;a href=&quot;https:\/\/www.londonjewelers.com\/brand\/audemars-piguet.html?active=timepieces&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer&quot;&gt;Royal Oak Selfwinding&lt;\/a&gt; in stainless steel with 18-k pink gold, $21,500 at London Jewelers, 2046 Northern Blvd., Manhasset, LI.\" width=\"662\" height=\"441\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/audemars-piguet-duo-toned-watch.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=300 300w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/audemars-piguet-duo-toned-watch.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=640 640w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/audemars-piguet-duo-toned-watch.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1280 1280w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/audemars-piguet-duo-toned-watch.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=662 662w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/10\/audemars-piguet-duo-toned-watch.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1324 1324w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 662px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span>Models for Ralph &amp; Russo\u2019s spring 2021 collections sported gorgeous frocks along with Audemars Piguet timepieces, including the brand\u2019s <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.londonjewelers.com\/brand\/audemars-piguet.html?active=timepieces\">Royal Oak Selfwinding<\/a> in stainless steel with 18-k pink gold, $21,500 at London Jewelers, 2046 Northern Blvd., Manhasset, LI.<\/span><span class=\"credit\">Audemars Piguet<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Despite their slim profile, the watches still embody Royal Oak\u2019s distinctive aesthetic codes. Those include visible screws on the octagonal bezel and a grid-textured \u201cGrande Tapisserie\u201d dial, engraved with a grooved pattern that\u2019s intended to evoke the warp and weft of a woven tapestry.<\/p>\n<p>As for Ralph &amp; Russo\u2019s haute couture show, only haute horlogerie would do. Models there brandished the Royal Oak Concept Flying Tourbillon (about $157,000), which comes in 18-k pink or white gold, shimmering with the brand\u2019s Frosted Gold finish.<\/p>\n<p>To create this dazzling effect, designer Carolina Bucci has modernized an ancient Florentine jewelry technique: craftspeople wield a tiny, diamond-tipped tool to form miniscule indentations on the angular surfaces of the Concept case. The result? A fashion forward Royal Oak with an icy sparkle, like a sprinkling of diamond dust.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"pullquote left\"><p>A watch movement can roughly contain between 250 and 500 tiny components, each meticulously handfinished before being assembled by hand for the watch to work perfectly.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"attribution\">\u00a0&#8211;\u00a0Fran\u00e7ois-Henry Bennahmias<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The watch\u2019s multilayered dial, meanwhile, draws attention to a flying tourbillon cage at 6 o\u2019clock, <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ointed with a flash of brilliant-cut diamonds. Emanating from that focal point are four concentric circles, in ombr\u00e9 shades of blue, which enhance the dial\u2019s mesmerizing depth. Designers dispensed with hour markers so as not to distract from the drama of the striking contemporary design.<br \/>\nSuch artfulness is matched only by the extreme technicity of the Concept\u2019s hand-wound flying tourbillon movement, designed to offset the effects of gravity on timekeeping. The revered mechanism is so complex that only the world\u2019s most skilled watchmakers attempt it. But you don\u2019t have to be a gearhead to be captivated by the twirling tourbillon at the bottom of the dial.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHaute horlogerie and haute couture share an incredible attention to detail,\u201d says Bennahmias. \u201cA watch movement can roughly contain between 250 and 500 tiny components, each meticulously handfinished before being assembled by hand for the watch to work perfectly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, he adds, \u201cA dress or a jacket is composed of tiny details often invisible to the eye that took hours and hours to accomplish \u2014 from the shape of a shoulder to a button to a small design adorning the garment. These tiny invisible details directly impact the way the dress will look or fit in the end. Everything has to be perfect.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And perfectly timeless.\n            <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">For forums sites go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/forum.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forum.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a><\/span><\/strong>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you want to read more <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">News<\/a> articles, you can visit our <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.buradabiliyorum.com\/news\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">News category.<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2020\/10\/13\/audemars-piguets-chic-royal-oak-watches-dazzle-on-ralph-russo-runways\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;#Audemars Piguet\u2019s chic Royal Oak watches dazzle on Ralph &amp; Russo runways&#8221; When Ralph &amp; Russo virtually presented its spring 2021 collections from Paris this month, the models wore something unexpected on their wrists: Audemars Piguet\u2019s latest Royal Oak watches.
