Why Purchase Platinum Diamond Ring for Your Engagement

Reasons That Make Platinum Diamond Engagement Rings So Valuable

Engagement ceremony is one such special occasion which is celebrated in a special way, accompanied with a precious engagement ring. There are mainly two options available when it comes to choosing engagement rings, and they are- gold and platinum. No doubt, the use of diamond remains common in both of them. So, which one is better- gold or platinum? Well, it would not be wrong to say that gold is not as popular as it used to be, even though it is still quite expensive. Nowadays, there are many people who are opting for platinum as the material for their engagement ring.

There are many reasons that are adding to the popularity of platinum diamond engagement rings, and some of them are listed below.

We know, platinum has a white appearance, and its durability is highly impressive. But, more impressive is its non-reactive nature. On the other hand, gold as a metal is somewhat reactive with various other compounds. Hence, taking care of gold jewellery is not an easy one. If you take into consideration the beauty of platinum as a metal, you will surely get mesmerized by the same. The low reflection property of platinum, makes it a perfect choice for the amazing brilliance of diamonds.

The rarity of platinum also makes it quite widely sought after. As a matter of fact, the rate at which platinum is mined is only one-tenth of that of gold. So, you can easily judge the value of platinum in comparison to that of gold. Another major reason that makes platinum a better metal for jewellery is related to the aspect of brittleness. When compared to gold, platinum is less brittle. As a result, it does not snap or break easily. Hence, you don’t have to worry about your engagement ring’s durability.

Apart from being less brittle, platinum has many more positive aspects. It is more malleable when compared to gold. As a result, it can be bent easily and given any desired shape. This is more important when it comes to installing the diamond in the platinum ring. The claws can be made and bent easily, which in turn proves to be safer for the diamond. Since the claws will not snap easily, therefore the diamond in your engagement ring will remain safe.

You must have seen that with the passage of time, the surface of any gold jewellery tends to lose its shine. This is the reason why gold jewellery need to get polished from time to time. However, in the case of platinum, you will not have to worry about such things. Since platinum does not react with anything, therefore the surface remains white naturally, without affecting the aesthetic value of the ring.

There are some people who are allergic to alloys such as white gold. Sometimes people can even get rashes on their skin. On the other hand, platinum is completely safe; nobody is allergic to this precious metal. So, you do not have to worry about the skin related issue, and you can wear and flaunt your platinum diamond engagement ring forever.

So, these were some of the benefits of purchasing platinum diamond engagement rings. You can purchase them online or from your nearest jewellery shop. In any case, do not forget to assess the purity and quality of the engagement ring. So, always ask for a certificate of purity from the seller. You can also purchase these expensive rings on easy EMIs, without worrying about making a hole in your wallet. So, choose a design and make your loved ones happy.

Métiers d’Art The legend of the Chinese zodiac Year of the dog

Métiers d’Art The legend of the Chinese zodiac Year of the dog

Vacheron Constantin is pursuing its dialogue with collectors and passionate devotees of Haute Horlogerie by enriching its Métiers d’Art The legend of the Chinese zodiac with the sign of the dog, emboying. Loyal, devoted and reliable, it will take over from the rooster at the Chinese New Year on February 16th 2018. These two new creations, realised in twelve models each, combine the technical excellence of Caliber 2460 G4 with the beauty of artistic crafts.

Paper-cutting, at the crossroads between Eastern and Western cultures
China, a nation with which Vacheron Constantin has been cultivating special ties since 1845, first introduce the paper-cutting technique known as Jianzhi, a popular art echoed in Swiss culture through its famous Scherenschnitt paper-cutting. This artistic approach, highlighted in the Métiers d’Art The legend of the Chinese zodiac, has been given a fresh interpretation thanks to the expertise of the master engravers and enamellers.

Allied artistic crafts
The foliage motif appearing on the dial and based on classic Chinese iconography is etched directly in the metal. The pattern remains semi-embedded and stands out from its gold base by a subtle stage-setting of variously accentuating reliefs creating a depth effect. This makes the vegetation appear to be floating over the dial.

Then comes the stage of Grand Feu enamelling, an ancestral technique that remains the preserve of a very few particularly skilled artisans. By applying the enamel in successive layers, the enamel specialist enhances the intensity of the blue or bronze-toned dial. Achieving the necessary mastery of colour and of reactions to firing at temperatures between 800 and 900 degrees Celsius calls for an expertise that can only be acquired over long years of experience.

The dog, made of platinum or pink gold, is hand engraved and delicately applied to the dial
centre.

A movement that leaves plenty of space for artistic expression
Calibre 2460 G4 makes it possible to create a distinctive and ideal stage-setting for the decorative arts, by giving the central dial motif a starring role. The hands-free time display isachieved through four apertures showing the hours, minutes, days and dates. These indications – the first two of the dragging variety and the last two of the jumping type –proudly embody the longstanding savoir-faire of the Maison in designing and developingoriginal displays. Clearly visible through the sapphire crystal back of the platinum or pink goldcase, the 22-carat oscillating weight is adorned with a recurrent Maltese cross patterntestifying to finishes performed in keeping with the finest watchmaking traditions. Allmovement components are indeed finely finished in accordance with the criteria of the Hallmark of Geneva, a quality label of which Vacheron Constantin is the most faithful representative.

2017 NOVELTY Slimline Moonphase Manufacture

2017 NOVELTY Slimline Moonphase Manufacture

The Slimline Moonphase Manufacture harbors a brand new Manufacture movement in-house designed, produced and assembled by Frederique Constant.

Manufacture
Since 2004, Frederique Constant creates its own calibers, entirely in-house designed, produced and assembled. This was an important step to becoming more independent and having more control over the production line, improve quality and accelerate product delivery. In May 2017, the brand announced the expansion of their current Manufacture located in Plan-les-Ouates. This decision was based on the sole purpose of accommodating the growing interest in the Manufacture movements. In-house calibers have become a trademark of Frederique Constant and its loyal followers appreciate every single one of them. Therefore, it comes to no surprise that CEO, Peter Stas, decided to expand their current building in order to double their production capabilities as well as manpower to be able to satisfy their ever-so hungry fan-base. The new Manufacture will propel Frederique constant into a future of opportunities, a new era of exploring new technical innovations while upholding the Swiss excellence of watchmaking tradition.

The New FC-702 Movement
The Slimline Moonphase Manufacture harbors the Manufacture movement FC-702. The newest addition to the list of 24 in-house calibers is based on the iconic moonphase movement from Frederique Constant. It has been redesigned in order to split the moonphase and date in to two new counters, both functions adjustable through the crown. The movement shows off the famous Perlage and Côtes de Genève decorations present in all Frederique Constant in-house calibers. It took the brand’s R&D department and watchmakers two years to perfect the movement and introduce it to the market.

The Watch
The timepiece offers two dial variations: silver-colored and black and comes in either rose gold-plated or polished stainless steel. The 38.8mm 3 parts-case case holds a convex sapphire crystal and see-though case back revealing the inner workings of the FC-702 caliber, and offers a 42-hour power reserve. The two counters for the moonphase and date are located at three and nine o’clock, respectively. The elegant curved dial merges seamlessly with the case showcasing hand-applied indexes and hand-polished hands. The dark brown or black alligator strap completes the look. With the Slimline Moonphase Manufacture, Frederique Constant carries on the tradition of flawlessly marrying fine watchmaking with intricate technical prowess.
