L’Duchen pays homage to the most beautiful of birds, the golden peafowl, by dedicating a watch to it! The bird’s natural elegance and its magnificent plumage have earned the peafowl high consideration across ancient cultures for many centuries.
In China, it is a symbol of peace, prosperity and beauty; in India, it has for 4,000 years been synonymous with immortality and fertility; while in the West it stands for renewal and resurrection. To capture the alluring appeal of this bewitching bird, L’Duchen’s watchmakers have made it a labour of love.
The hand-painted dial of this exquisite luxury watch required ten layers of lacquering and painting corresponding to 80 hours of fine workmanship. Creating a model like this from the Art Collection may take up to three months. This technical mastery enables L’Duchen to offer its customers entirely personalized timepieces clothed in a timeless exterior and meeting the rigorous demands of the Swiss made label.
This beauty is driven by the ETA 2836 calibre automatic movement. With a stainless steel case, anti-reflective sapphire crystal glass, water-resistant to 5 BAR, this is an elegant timepiece that carries the hand-painted peafowl motif in gold leaf on its dial. The watch comes with a calfskin strap and stainless steel folding clasp.
