SIHH 2015: The Ralph Lauren 867 Collection
The Ralph Lauren 867 collection, named after the iconic New York flagship store at 867 Madison Avenue, reflects the designer’s enduring fascination for the unparalleled splendor of the Art Deco era.
Strong abstract geometry and richness of materials continue to make the 867 collection of timepieces some of the most supremely elegant and versatile timepieces in the world.
The Ralph Lauren 867 Tuxedo watch brings a spirit of glamour and celebration to the 867 timepiece collection for women. Reinventing the international sophistication of the 1930s and the classic rectilinear geometry of the Art Deco era, the 867 Tuxedo timepiece achieves a modern and powerful feminine presence. The 18K rose gold case features open, arch-shaped attachments for the strap, creating a gracefully elongated presence on the wrist, while the juxtaposition of black Arabic and Roman numerals on the off-white lacquered dial anchor the timepiece firmly in Deco design language.
Two versions of the 867 Tuxedo timepiece will be offered: a 27.50mm model powered by the hand-wound RL430 movement, created by Piaget for Ralph Lauren, and — for the first time in the collection — a 21.50mm model. This new smaller size will be powered by a Swiss quartz caliber — both decorated with Côtes de Genève.
The Ralph Lauren 867 Petite Diamond timepiece brings the sumptuousness of diamonds together with the restrained yet bold lines of the 867 collection, creating a luxurious and refined timepiece. The 21.50mm 18K white gold case is set with 289 round, brilliant-cut diamonds as well as 12 baguette-cut diamonds and is presented on a black suede strap. The Ralph Lauren 867 Petite Diamond timepiece houses a Swiss quartz movement, decorated with Côtes de Genève.
