Country & Town House - Piccadilly Renaissance Ballerina

ultra-slim diamond watches for ladies

Although the advent of quartz once threatened to spell the end of the mechanical wristwatch, it is a technology embraced with particular enthusiasm by women. But now the times are a-changing because more women are choosing mechanical movements in favour of quartz ones, thus showing a willing to spend more on a watch and demonstrating a greater interest in what happens behind the dial.

Few watch houses can boast the decorative skills of Backes & Strauss, however, which, specialises in exquisite gem-set pieces powered by top quality Franck Muller movements. Among the most popular and wearable are those in the Piccadilly Renaissance range powered by an ultra-slim mechanism and can be had in 33mm or 40mm diameters.
