BaselWorld 2008: DeGrisogono Instrumentino Small Watch
PRESS RELEASE --
EXQUISITE SOPHISTICATION
The famous INSTRUMENTINO collection takes on a miniature appearance while retaining its sophisticated contemporary design equipped with an exclusive moon phase. Feminine, very refined models to wear with or without diamonds for small and big occasions.

Everything small is cute. Taking inspiration from this maxim, de GRISOGONO has produced its symbolic INSTRUMENTINO collection in adorable proportions that will adorn the most delicate of wrists. Exclusively available in pink or white gold, the INSTRUMENTINO SMALL surprises with its miniature 155 mm and its lightweight 106 grams. With their modern beauty that falls perfectly within the spirit of the collection as well as their precious elegance, these timekeepers will appeal to women confident in their appearance, to wear everyday or for a distinguished event.

ONE FACE, FOUR VERSIONS

The INSTRUMENTINO collection is characterised by a daring contemporary design that doesn't hesitate to have fun with the hours. Impertinent certainly, but never without reason. The INSTRUMENTINO SMALL now arranges the numbers asymmetrically, willingly forgetting to mention the 4 and the 8 in a highly sought-after casual attitude. A unique face rests on a sophisticated dial displaying scroll motifs in matching tones on a black gloss or honey bronzed back.

Perfectly mastering the art of jewellery setting, de GRISOGONO never neglects to offer watch making collections adorned with the most beautiful precious stones. Clad in its pink gold cover, the INSTRUMENTINO SMALL offers three refined versions besides its non-set version. White diamonds thus adorn several parts of the models from the bezel to the whole of the watch in a complete paving, via a semi- setting situated on the dial, the bezel as well as the strap's first fastening links. Traditionally plain with precious stones, the white gold INSTRUMENTINO SMALL presents four versions entirely set or not, with a very elegant half-paved model, aligning several rows of small white diamonds on each of the strap's fastening links.

AN EXCLUSIVE MOON PHASE

In general, timekeepers equipped with a moon phase display a curved shaped aperture situated at midday. Reputed for its avant-garde watch making tradition, the de GRISOGONO brand innovates by creating a totally unique moon phase design that displays a big moon at 6 °clock. A surprising feature thanks to a moon disc in an opposite colour concealed beneath a round aperture, placed just below the fixing of the hands on the INSTRUMENTINO SMALL.

Since its creation de GRISOGONO has been setting itself apart with designs with a certain daring and exquisite delight. Pushing sophistication to its limits, the INSTRUMENTINO SMALL's quartz movement has been entirely covered with a circuit cover in blackened brass engraved with scrolls in matching tones. This meticulously finished cover is concealed in the watch, thus invisible from the outside. Because genuine luxury doesn't necessarily have to reveal itself.
