Fabrizio Cavalca hired designer Ian Skellern and joined forces with Steinway & Sons to create Steinway & Sons Luxury Swiss Watches. The discreet Steinway lyre logo with its own clean space on the dial leaves no doubt as to the quality and pedigree of the watch. The black mirrors the lacquered black timber of a Steinway grand piano. Twelve strings are hand-soldered over a solid-gold soundboard, and while that provides a fairly complex visual feast, the fact that much of the dial remains uncluttered embodies the ensemble with a very cultivated look. The bespoke hand-crafted hands and unique tuning-fork second hand add another touch of class to this elegant creation by Ian Skellern.
The quartz movement of the ladies diamond set models allows for a smaller and thinner case and the 140 scintillating diamonds on its soundboard bring the watch alive with brilliant sparkles of light.
These elegant watches are affordable and make the perfect holiday gift, starting at $1,000.
