Published: July 28th, 2009
Diamonds, silver, mother-of-pearl, alligator leather, 18 Carat gold, blue and black sapphires, shantung satin, ivory. This is an incomplete list of the exceptionally fine materials used to make Raymond Weil’s luxury watches.
Since 1976, Raymond Weil has been designing and crafting fine Swiss watches.
The newest model of “Shine” from the Ladies collection demonstrates classic elegance with it’s polished steel, black shantung satin and 76 small, VS quality diamonds. The face is a narrow rectangle of Anthracite grey. Each hour is marked with a diamond except the Roman numerals for 12 and 6 o’clock.
Another new model has been released of “Freelancer” from the Gents collection. Winding automatically with the movement of the wrist, a battery need never be purchased for this handsome timepiece. The round face features a chronograph, two date windows and three sub-dials. The band is a rich brown leather with contrast stitching. Yellow second and chronograph hands stand out against the black and silver markings under the sapphire crystal.
Of the other ten collections offered by Raymond Weil, five are made with pieces for men and women. One such collection is the “Parsifal” with a combined total of 18 watches. The Ladies “Parsifal” models are quartz movement as opposed to the automatic winding “Parsifal” models for Gents. While the movements differ, the overall aesthetic of the collection mixes polished and matte metals for the casings and bracelets. Roman numerals or diamonds mark the hours on mother-of-pearl or silver faces. Raymond Weil’s watches are fine pieces of quality craftsmanship.
