Alexander Shorokhoff Avantgarde "Bella & Alla"
Love can be expressed in countless ways: through a delicate flower, the powerful words "I love you", or sincere acts of affection. And that is precisely what Alexander Shorokhov has done! In a beautiful gesture of devotion, he dedicated this watch, named "Bella & Alla", to his wife Alla.
This watch is not just a timepiece but a symbol of his boundless love for her. With a bouquet of flowers in the form of a watch, lovingly hand-painted with delicate blooms, he presents her with a reminder of their shared love that will forever flourish.
The "Bella & Alla" is undoubtedly a true masterpiece. The floral pattern was initially stamped and etched into the appropriate shape with utmost precision. This was followed by elaborate hand engravings, bringing each detail of the flowers to life and emphasizing their authenticity. Only after this meticulous process was the dial refined with elegant yellow gold, and then the enamel was applied by hand, giving each petal an unparalleled vibrancy.
The case was crafted with exceptional dedication as well. The black PVD coating gives the automatic watch an elegant appearance. A remarkable feature is the lugs, which are welded onto the base afterward. This is not by chance; along the sides, three small recesses can be found, which are handenameled in delicate pastel colors to match the dial.
To perform this fine and precise work, a lug-free case is required. Each color is carefully applied in different time intervals and then dried, creating a unique and detailed finish.
The hour and minute hands are yellow-gold, matching the elegant dial. A luxurious alligator leather strap in vibrant fuchsia red, complemented by an engraved solid stainless steel pin buckle, was specially selected for this model to highlight its unique character.
The watch is powered by a high-quality Swiss automatic movement with a hand-engraved and refined rotor, blued screws, and 21 jewels. It boasts a power reserve of approximately 47 hours and offers a view through the round sapphire crystal case back, unlike other models with the same case, which feature four colorful crystals.
With a strict limitation of only 13 pieces, this model will not be available forever. However, the love and appreciation that Alexander Shorokhov expresses to his wife through this watch will live on forever.
