Luxury timepiece maker Jaeger-LeCoultre has released a new set of Alfons Mucha-inspired watches to its legendary Reverso Tribute Enamel collection. Inspired by the artwork of the famous artist, this new collection aims to elevate the skill behind enamelling and engraving.
The front of the Alfons Mucha-inspired watches all feature hand-guillochéd dials, covered in translucent Grand Feu enamel. The rear is where the artwork is actually showcased as they serve as canvases for tiny reproductions of famous artworks. This is what sets the Alfons Mucha-inspired watches apart from any competitions, as they showcase the intricate artistry of the celebrated artist.
Each of the watches were crafted by skilled makers that spent 100 hours of work per piece.
