Lavish lines of [women watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chteau-divoire) everywhere take a backseat when the Lady 8 hits center stage. This intricate and [elegant watch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/herms-cut) is feminine and fancy, all while being shaped like the number eight.

This curvaceous timepiece is actually a revamp of maker Jaquet Droz's last season's watch, the Grande Seconde. Recreated with a touch more femininity and shape, the Lady 8 is the more elegant of the two. The eight-shaped face of the watch is covered with [sapphire glass](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/richard-mille-rm-0702) in addition to being studded with garnets or diamonds in white gold. At the very top of this precious piece rests a beautiful pearl, adding an extra grace to the already-classic look.

This watch is absolutely stunning and timeless in every way. Who knew the number eight could be so cultivating?
