L’ÉCLAT – Paris 1925,  100 Years of Art Deco
There are watches that tell time and there are creations that transcend it. L’ÉCLAT belongs to the latter category – a pure expression of Haute Horlogerie, where watchmaking craftsmanship meets one of the most influential aesthetic trends of the 20th century: Art Deco.
The roots of this creation can be found in 1925, in Paris, at the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes – the founding event of a visual language that redefined modern luxury. Order, symmetry, architecture and controlled opulence: principles that animate every detail of this watch.
The rectangular case, sculpted with almost architectural precision, evokes the verticality and rigor of the emblematic buildings of the interwar era. The dial, treated as an artistic surface, reveals a fine geometric decoration, executed with obsessive attention to proportion and depth. The deep tone of the background is enhanced by warm metallic accents, creating a sophisticated contrast reserved for true connoisseurs.
The indications are deliberate, essentialized to their absolute form. The seconds subdial adds a subtle, almost ceremonial rhythm, reminding us that in the universe of Haute Horlogerie every fraction of time is precious. This is not a demonstration of abundance, but one of discernment.
L’ÉCLAT is intended for those who view the watch not as an accessory, but as a work of contemporary heritage. A piece that does not follow trends, but anticipates them, preserving the spirit of an era in which luxury was built for eternity.
L’ÉCLAT – an Art Deco masterpiece, created for those who possess time, not chase it.
