Ten Years Watchmaking: Five Classic Christian Dior Christal Watches

At the end of the 1970s, Christian Dior replica watch Swiss gradually began to enter into the field of watch making, but in the initial period of time, its innovation always held on to the traditional appearance design and didn’t adopt the Christian Dior’s own design favored by people. Therefore before the designer John Galliano involved in Christian Dior in 2000, the watch masterpieces of Dior are hard to give you surprise and are difficult to get rid of the restraint of fashion brand. After entering into the new century, Christian Dior began to change its direction step by step, striving for developing the professional watchmaking.

So in these ten years, we can see that Christian Dior made every effort to strengthen its expertise. In 2001, Christian Dior established its own production base in La Chaux-de-Fonds, and then in 2003, 2004 and 2005 respectively released three models in different styles. Fashionable and light “Lahti” series provided for ladies’ daily needs, meanwhile, as a sport watch, “Chiffre Rouge” was created for those masculine men. The most skilled jewelry making craft of Christian Dior combines into this Christal series to the greatest extent. Now let’s judge them together, the bright spots of these Christian Dior watches in these ten years.

Since 2008, movement supplier “Concepto” began to research movements for Christian Dior, and equipped the Tourbillion movement in the Christian Dior Christal watches. This Christal tourbillion ruby watch made in 2009 was limited to 1 piece around the world. The manufacture process is also very difficult, in order to search out rubies that fit for the expected value of designers in color and quality, the selection of rubies of this watch comes from a closed Thailand ruby mine and is the private collection of mine host collecting for 30 years. At the opening of World Expo, the global vision converged in this year of china. This watch also came to China, to advocate Christian Dior’s brand culture by showing to the public.

John Galliano has ever said: “I am fascinated by the art works in the period of Art Deco, whose sense of beauty of structuralism presenting on the Haute couture enlightened my endless inspiration. I imagine that hour and minute hands are dancing with the jazz melody on the diamond dial, I imagine that black and white are endlessly extending on the dial, which gives a new look for time.” Just because of the enlightenment of such inspiration, Christian Dior developed this mysterious movement’s watch.

Once, the mysterious movement only could be used in the table clocks and pocket watches. Christian Dior joined hands with Quinting Company and five engineers who come from watchmaking, automobile, and electronic industry to invent this completely transparent mysterious movement for 7 years.

Though Christian Dior always hopes to maintain the innovative thought when making Swiss replica watches, designers also constantly capture the imagination of themselves. Although Christian Dior has had its own production base, allowing these watch making workshops to combine the creative power and professional skills in the watch production, there are also some designers conceiving of a mechanical device and technology, which are beyond the capacity of La Chaux-de-Fonds watch making workshop. At this moment, Christian Dior began to seek help of the external experts, jointly achieving this innovation. This can make up the shortage of Christian Dior movement’s technology and craft. This kind of customized concept has been applied in other fields of Christian Dior, and in 2010 Christian Dior released its Haute Couture of Christal watch. Eight 33 mm watches, each of which includes a different kind of color blending, fully satisfy people’s thirst for gorgeous color.

And Christian Dior’s high-class jewelry flagship store locates at Place Vendome 8 in Paris France. As a lifetime lucky number of Christian Dior’s founder Mr. Dior, Christian Dior uses “8” to make a watch model, which is a best way to pay a tribute to Mr. Dior.
