The La Chaux-de-Fonds brand has a unique tradition dating back to its relationship with China in the 18th century: it celebrates Chinese New Year with an artistic piece bearing a creature from astrology. The 41mm diamond-paved white or rose gold case overflows with symbols and is adorned by 3 sculpted goats perched on a mountain ridge on a plum blossom background as “the winter flower and spring prophet.” The showcase of creativity and sensitivity shown by the goat and number 3 is beautifully underlined by an blue and white or black and burgundy champlevé enamel bed whilst a mother-of-pearl or black onyx disc at 12 o’ clock on the dial displays the hours and minutes. The blue steel or rose gold hands are brought to life by the self-winding JD2653 calibre which provides a 68-hour power reserve. Price: 70,200 CHF (rose gold) – 79,950 CHF (white gold)
