Dior presents a masterclass in horological artistry with the release of the Dior Grand Soir Year of the Horse.

This limited edition timepiece serves as a breathtaking tribute to the lunar new year, blending sophisticated Swiss craftsmanship with a dreamlike aesthetic. Encased in 36mm of polished stainless steel, the watch features a pink gold bezel meticulously set with 52 brilliant-cut diamonds totaling 1.3 carats.

The dial is a miniature masterpiece where a pink gold horse navigates a lush, enchanted landscape. Set against a mother-of-pearl backdrop printed with floral patterns, the scene comes to life through mother-of-pearl bushes and flowers. This magical garden is further elevated by the inclusion of pink gold butterflies and a vibrant array of precious stones, including amethysts, spessartites, and both yellow and blue sapphires.

Time is elegantly tracked by pink gold Dauphine hands, while the Christian Dior logo is rendered in a matching pink gold color. The technical sophistication of the piece is anchored by an automatic Sellita SW300 calibre movement, providing a 42-hour power reserve. A milky translucent sapphire crystal case-back offers a glimpse into the internal mechanics, accented by pink gold metallization.

Completing the ensemble is a beige satin strap that mirrors the softness of the dial. The steel ardillon buckle adds a final touch of brilliance, set with an additional 18 diamonds.

With only 30 pieces available worldwide, each watch is individually engraved to mark its status as a rare and collectible work of art.
