Graff gives pride of place to the generic emblem that will gradually become the signature of all its watches, in the place of the triangular emerald used to date. Evoking the shape of a brilliant-cut diamond, it finds its place on the new MasterGraff and Graffstar models. On the MasterGraff Ultra Flat Icon Skeleton Tourbillon, it forms the outline of a grid that reveals the exclusive hand-wound Caliber 4 movement measuring just 3.5 mm thick and enthroned at 12 o’clock, set with a tailor-cut stone. The model comes in a choice of faceted cases in chocolate brown or black DLC-treated titanium with contrasting pink or white gold elements. Meanwhile, the GraffStar Icon Automatic, the very first mechanical ladies’ watch from the House, is driven by a large date and dual-time movement complete with day/night indicator, beneath a splendid carpeting of emblematic motifs with mother-of-pearl inlays. The collection comes in multiple versions : white or pink gold cases, non-set or diamond-set, as well as ceramic cases – another first for Graff – in colors matching the dials.
