Description
Delights and Mysteries of Feminine Time
The aura is magnetic. The look is enchanting. The profile is contemporary. Pure magic – magic
of technology and aesthetics, of shadow and light, of dreams and spontaneity.
An icon with gentle feminine curves, it imparts to time a dedication to the image of its nature: dreamlike,
elusive, fascinating. It is the new Maurice Lacroix line for women. A line that lends its mystery to
the sophistication of an automatic movement. The spectacle of time takes on its most sparkling
finery, reconciling the spirit of a traditional manufacture and a contemporary vision of watchmaking.
Designed for women desiring exclusivity and refinement, Starside envelopes time in an allegorical and
hushed universe. In keeping with a personality that creates a trend instead of conforming to it, the
collection pays homage to the watchmaking tradition while swathing its models with a freshness that
combines poetry, modernity and femininity.
The choreography of time takes place in an enchanted decor where the curves lead the dance. The
case swathes itself delightfully in the softness of the lugs. Its sensual and graciously profiled curvature
reveals a tulip-shaped middle part and a bezel in a diamond aureola. The voluptuous contours, courted
by a stylized crown set with a star, are joined to a cambered sapphire glass that tenderly frames a
sparkling and mysterious face.
In the kingdom of sensuality, harmony can be found in the tiniest element of the watch. The dial, on
which a river of diamonds wends a path, sublimates the atmosphere with its eurhythmy. The hands
graze it with their tapered silhouette. The cortege of time indications and complications surprise the
look with a fluid, melodious and intimately poetic aesthetic.
The Starside Eternal Moon features the moon in a beautiful setting veiled in sapphire glass. The lunar
disc with the unusual and post-modern graphics inexorably draws attention. Fine symmetrical
crescent-form openings reveal the day and the month, while the date turns around the dial lit up by
long radiating applied index marks. The Starside Magic Seconds, in turn, give the best part to the
small seconds indication which strolls on a disc punctuated by a blue or translucent sapphire
cabochon. The large date appears opposite.
In the grooves, the automatic rewinding mechanism orchestrates the ball; the oscillating rotor, whose
finishes dance at the pleasure of movement and light, adopts a delicious plumpness. The steel
bracelet, whose feminine lines recalls those of the case, plays with the light and deploys its undulating
flexibility. It caresses and embraces the curvature of the wrist with delight. Some versions prefer to
that the silkiness of a satin strap closed by a folding clasp.
