Tiffany & Co. Dazzles In Diamonds With The Enamel Diamond Watch

Honoring the legacy of Jean Schlumberger, the new Enamel Diamond watch reimagines his iconic 1962 paillonné enamel bangle in a luminous timepiece. A diamond-set dial is framed by a rotating ring of Tiffany Blue® or white vitreous enamel, accented with the signature 18k yellow gold cross-stitch motif. Snow-set diamonds create unrivaled luminosity, while the freely spinning 18k gold stitches mark the hours with playful sophistication.

The Enamel Watch takes its cue from a design by famed French jeweler Jean Schlumberger, whose work for Tiffany from the 1950s onward reshaped how color, surface and decoration could be used to create unique fine jewelry. In 1962, Schlumberger revived paillonné enamel – a 19th-century technique that layers hand-cut gold or silver leaf beneath translucent enamel – and used it to striking effect in his Croisillon bangles that were never designed as delicate and discreet decorations, but rather to be worn stacked and visible with abandon befitting the visual language of the period.
