WATCHES & TIMEPIECES
In the Lady Tahiti watch, Emile Chouriet took on a novel
approach to bring out the beauty of this natural wonder.
Crafted by an ingenious process from the mother-of-pearl of
black pearls, spherical beads are meticulously covered with the
semi-translucent nacre that exude the same deep colours and
mysterious allure as actual black pearls.
Fixed to the four cardinal points of the matte black dial at 3, 6, 9
and 12 o’clock, the black mother-of-pearl beads are exquisitely
crafted to ensure uniformity in size, brightness and lustre. Above
them, Emile Chouriet’s signature hollow willow hands are given a
golden tone that matches the applied indexes.

TECHNICAL
DESCRIPTION
and The Watch Hut in the UK, the Lady Tahiti features a different
take on the Fair Lady’s round case, made in stainless steel with
a glossy black PVD treatment that measures 29.2mm wide. The
golden crown and bar-shaped lugs are inlaid with blue Swarovski MOVEMENT: EC5316 Automatic Movement, 25 Jewels, 38
crystals, an elegant nod to the aquatic origin of the black Tahitian Hour Power Reserve
pearl.
Completing the holistic appearance of the Lady Tahiti is a black
leather strap embossed with a lizard pattern and a gold-tone
steel buckle, echoing the striking contrasts of the case and dial.
Beating within this darkly majestic watch is the calibre EC5316,
an automatic ETA based movement with a power reserve of 38
hours when fully wound.
With its unprecedentedly three-dimensional use of black mother-
of-pearl and contemporary design accents, the Lady Tahiti from
the Fair Lady collection offers a different, more modern kind of
femininity to its iconic women’s collection.
