Ladies' watches, unfortunately, don’t get the attention they deserve. It seems to be assumed that women are fine with shoddily designed timepieces devoid of soul. Of course, this is nonsense – there’s no reason whatsoever that a lady’s watch should be any less considered than a man’s! Bulgari is one of few companies whose thoughtful ladies’ watches have risen to the top – perhaps because of the firm’s background as a jeweler. The Lucea collection debuted in 2014 and only recently has the collection seen a major design evolution. Still embodying the essence of Italian elegance and exceptional craftsmanship, the newer models in the Lucea collection now feature smaller and svelter silhouettes. This particular Lucea model features a 28mm stainless steel case with a sapphire crystal, a ruby cabochon crown with a diamond inset, a gloss black dial with applied diamond indices, a matching ‘sword’ handset and is fitted to a stainless steel ‘Tubogas’ bracelet with a double folding clasp. If you’re looking for a simple, elegant, everyday watch that won’t look out of place in either casual or formal situations, then a Lucea should be on your radar.
