Van Cleef & Arpels presents four new Pont des Amoureux timepieces at Watches & Wonders Geneva 2025. For this new 2025 edition of Watches & Wonders, they pay tribute to Paris, their home city. Here, precious encounters take center stage within the Pont des Amoureux collection, welcoming new color harmonies and writing another chapter with the Lady Arpels Bal des Amoureux Automate watch.
The latter tells the story of a tender reunion at the crossroads of métiers d’art and the mechanical savoir-faire of Van Cleef & Arpels Watchmaking Workshops in Geneva. Illustrating the Maison’s vision of the Poetry of Time, two extraordinary objects invite us to contemplate the passage of time to the rhythm of a cupid’s fluttering wings, or to admire a celestial ballet. Finally, the jeweled timepieces celebrate the tradition of telling time through high jewelry, so dear to the Maison.
“This event is always an opportunity to tell our story and show our Poetic Complications, such as the Pont des Amoureux collection. These watches, created in 2010 and reinvented in multiple color variations, have become a signature of the Maison over the years. They embody the Poetry of Time dear to Van Cleef & Arpels, its mechanical mastery, and its devotion to métiers d’art, while expressing one of its founding sources of inspiration: love.”
Catherine Rénier,
President and CEO of Van Cleef & Arpels
Van Cleef & Arpels Watches and Wonders Geneva 2025
Since 2006, Van Cleef & Arpels has expressed the poetry of its universe through its complicated timepieces. Within this ensemble, the creations combine mechanical expertise, precious materials, and “métiers d’art” to bring each dial to life within the setting of a specific story.
The 4 models are equipped with retrograde movements that elegantly indicate the time on the dials, while on-demand animations recreate the tenderness of a romantic encounter. Technical prowess goes hand in hand with creative vision, uniting the talents of enamellers, miniature painters, engravers, lapidaries, and gem-setters.
The watches are paired with high jewelry bracelets fully set with diamonds and a gradient of sapphires, in soft or intense pink for the Aube and Soirée models respectively, and light or deep blue for Matinée and Clair de Lune.
