La D de Dior

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the La D de Dior, created in 2003, the precious dial and bracelet of the iconic timepiece have been adorned with the geometric lines of cannage, a pattern so dear to Christian Dior.

Cannage, a symbol of elegance, featured on the Napoleon III chairs that welcomed Monsieur Dior’s guests at 30 Avenue Montaigne, the House’s iconic address. Appreciated by the founding-couturier for the simplicity of its beauty, the emblematic motif was destined to become a key Dior reference, flourishing on numerous creations.

 

This year, the La D de Dior is available in a new version named La D My Dior, distinguished by the graphic lines of this signature design.

 

Entirely hand-engraved, the yellow gold mesh requires two days of work. A specialized engraver perpetuates traditional gestures, combining exceptional craftsmanship with virtuoso technical expertise. 

First the artisan engraves the Satine motif inspired by haute couture fabrics along the bracelet and loop. Then comes the engraving of the cannage lines, an operation demanding extreme dexterity to ensure the precision of the geometric angles and parallels of the classic pattern.
