GRIEB & BENZINGER and MARCUS Watch Boutique,
London Present an Exceptional Bespoke Unique Timepiece
GRIEB
& BENZINGER, the
masters of skeletonized watches known for extraordinary horological creations,
have now produced a unique piece together with one of the most prestigious
watch shops in the world: MARCUS watch
boutique, at home in London’s fine Bond Street. In the watch industry, MARCUS watch boutique is well-known as
a hot spot for unusual collector’s watches of the kind that one would never
even find in the glass cases of the world’s largest watch fair, BaselWorld.
The White Dragon Pavé fascinates the eye right from the first
glance with an unusual dial whose center comprises a hand-skeletonized,
hand-engraved and hand-guilloché dragon surrounded by 369 fine Top Wesselton
diamonds set in pavé style. The bezel is set with the finest square-cut,
Princess-style diamonds. The brilliance of these fascinating diamonds is hardly
to be described with mere words, and in the sunny home of the collector lucky
enough to call the White Dragon Pavé his or her own, the
owner will probably need sunglasses when looking at it.

The movement visible through the sapphire crystal case back is –as can
and should be expected – a typical GRIEB & BENZINGER work of art. One
look shows how filigreed the saw and graver tool were utilized to create the
visible art: guilloché, skeletonization, and engraving done by hand as far as
the eye can see.
Housed in a solid 43 mm case crafted in 18-karat palladium-white gold,
the White
Dragon Pavé once again proves to be a priceless eye-catcher that
confirms the exclusivity of the watches originating in GRIEB & BENZINGER’s workshops, standing out in a market flooded
with mass luxury. The meager amount of production of a maximum of 100 pieces
per year, a result of the enormous technical range of manufacture accomplished by
hand, makes these watches rare, exclusive and oh-so desirable for the
collector.
One can hope that the collaboration of these two specialists MARCUS and GRIEB & BENZINGER continues to create exceptional collector’s
items. Stay tuned…
