Van Cleef & Arpels has been creating striking watches as part of the Cadenas lineup, and they keep up the tradition of allowing users to check the time in secret.With the continued refreshing of the Cadenas lineup, Van Cleef & Arpels has been keeping the look and feel of the original watches alive. The lineup, which is tagged as “timeless” by the company, keeps alive the fashion that was prevalent in the 1935s when the first watch was released. During that time, checking the time in public was considered as distinctly “unfashionable” for women. The Cadenas watch allowed women to keep an eye on the time without actually appearing to wear a watch. As a result, the watch is inspired by the lines of a bracelet, and is often studded with diamonds and other precious gemstones. Additionally, timepiece has modern design elements which continue to give it a unique look that the public have come to associate with Van Cleef & Arpels.Since 1935, the watch, which draws its name from the French term for lock has been refreshed several times by the company. The most recent additions come in the form of the ‘Emerald Cadenas’ which as its name indicates is studded with 1489 diamonds with a total value of 7.67 carats. Emeralds arranged in dual lines; provide contrast against the blazing colorless diamonds and the white gold which is used in the creation of the timepiece. Recent pieces in the lineup include the version created from Pink gold and studded with diamonds and sapphires.Click on the slideshow to check the lineup.http://www.blouinartinfo.comFounder: Louise Blouin Read more
