When a modern woman of yesterday inspires creations with the femininity of today, you know that an icon is in the making. Joséphine Aigrette is one of the collections that marked both the jewelry and the watchmaking industries and this time, it’s with a new timepiece that Maison Chaumet marks a new chapter in this rich history of creativity.

More of a time-telling jewel than a watch, the new Joséphine Aigrette challenges the watchmaking codes to redefine everyday timepieces. Paved or crafted in mirror-polished gold, its pear-shaped case reflects the preciousness of a jewel in an ode to the love its muse had for this cut. And to highlight the Maison’s attention to details and its history in the art of trompe-l’oeil, a white, black or diamond paved dial captures the pear shape with graphic facets.

Completing this delicate piece is the strap, which embraces the wrist without hindrance or buckle. Leather for the day or satin for the night? The choice is yours, and yours only.
