My Dior by Dior

Dior has added 15 new pieces to its My Dior jewellery collection. First launched in 2012, the My Dior jewellery takes its inspiration from carnage – the distinctive cross-hatch patterning that appears throughout Dior, on ready-to-wear, bags, shoes accessories and watches. Inspired by the rattan weaving on the chairs used in the first ever Christian Dior show in 1947, here the pattern appears as delicate twists of 18 crt gold, interwoven to create rings, ear cuffs, bracelets and a diamond-studded wrist cuff.

Stanley Kubrick inspired Urwerk UR-230 Polaris

Limited to just 35 pieces, the UR-230 Polaris is inspired by the aesthetic of Stanley Kubrick’s movie 2001: A Space Odyssey, and as a result, is carved from a block of white ceramic enhanced with fibreglass. Powered by a UR-7.30 calibre, it has a 'revolving satellite' complication to ensure the hour is always facing the viewer. At 44mm wide and 53mm long, and elongated towards the 6 o’clock position, the trapezoidal shape helps distribute the weight evenly across the wrist, while the rubber strap is closed with a hook-and-loop fastener for comfort and ease.
