Autumn 2021
Fabergé has introduced two new additions to its Compliquée Peacock collection: The Compliquée Peacock Platinum and Rose Gold Hand-Painted Limited Edition Watches.
Following on from the great success at the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève in 2015, in which the Compliquée Peacock won the High-Mechanical award, Fabergé has now introduced a new variation on the theme, made in partnership with Workmaster, Jean-Marc Wiederrecht from Agenhor and master craftsman, André Martinez (a specialist in miniaturist artistic painting on watch dials).
Limited to 10 numbered pieces of each design, each watch dial is totally unique and features an intricate scene hand-painted by Martinez, depicting a peahen alongside the iconic peacock. These miniature masterpieces pop with colour, with vibrant blues, greens and orange.
Fabergé’s Timepieces Director, Aurélie Picaud, says: “Our new Compliquée Peacock watches are inspired by the Imperial Peacock Egg of 1908. The movement within the watches allows a unique way of displaying hours and minutes, and takes its inspiration from early Fabergé automata creations, and their ingenuity. These two new models epitomise ‘The Art of Colour’, craftsmanship and creativity. Our craftspeople are part of the story and the passion they have for their special craft is translated into each of these designs.”
These new creations are available in two styles, with the choice of an 18k rose gold case with a forest green crocodile leather strap, or a platinum case with a teal crocodile leather strap. Each case features a diamond set bezel, which adds a delicate radiance to the stunning design.
The Compliquée Peacock watch features a unique movement developed exclusively for Fabergé by Agenhor. Hours are read at the winding crown at three o’clock, as a numbered mother-of-pearl ring rotates counter-clockwise. The minutes are read by the position of the peacock’s tail feathers as they unfurl each hour, only returning to zero when the lead feather reaches 60.
The Compliquée Peacock Platinum Hand-Painted Limited Edition Watch is available for £52,700/$69,500 ($72,079/$95,057) and the Compliquée Peacock Rose Gold Hand-Painted Limited Edition Watch is available for £47,400/$62,500 ($64,830/$85,483).
