Midnight Planetarium Watch

I recently saw an ad in a magazine for Van Cleef and Arpels' Midnight Planetarium Watch.  If I were ever to spend $198,000 on a watch, this would be it.  (Haha...)  The date is indicated around the outside with the months in French.  The planets on the face revolve around the sun in real time (according to their genuine rate of rotation).  Interesting and beautiful.

Van Cleef & Arpels - Alhambra

I can't remember where I saw the ad for it, but I really love the Alhambra line by Van Cleef & Arpels.  A classic symbol of luck is beautiful as a necklace with mother of pearl or as a pair of earrings.

Bird of Paradise

Isn't this ring fantastic? It's from the Van Cleef & Arpels Bird of Paradise Collection. It seems like it would be a little complicated to wear...
