OMEGA ART DECO JEWELRY WATCH IN PLATINUM AND DIAMONDS – 1930s-1940s Among the most fascinating jewelry watches created during the Art Deco period, this Omega example stands out for the richness of its craftsmanship, the significant quantity of diamonds, and the original integration of watch and jewelry. The oval platinum case features a splendid frame of natural round brilliant-cut diamonds, set closely together along the perimeter, creating a continuous border around the dial. Decorative geometric elements, enhanced by baguette-cut diamonds arranged vertically within settings, develop on the sides of the case, clearly recalling the geometric language of Art Deco. In the upper and lower parts of the watch, richer floral motifs are found, formed by round brilliant-cut diamonds of various sizes, with a central stone of larger caliber surrounded by further brilliants. These decorative elements are connected to the case through finely perforated platinum work, where the design of the baguette diamonds and that of the brilliants are integrated in a particularly elaborate manner. The bracelet continues the same decorative language as the case and is always made of platinum with flexible links entirely embellished with natural round brilliant-cut diamonds. Near the case, additional geometric elements with baguette-cut diamonds echo the side motifs of the watch, creating stylistic continuity between the upper part and the bracelet. The craftsmanship of the individual elements and the connections between the links requires particularly accurate goldsmithing techniques, especially to achieve the necessary mobility for a setting entirely covered in diamonds. The silver-toned dial features applied indices and dauphine hands, while the Omega signature identifies the watch, a distinctive element of watchmaking of the era. The variety of cuts used, with natural round brilliant-cut diamonds and baguette-cut diamonds, further enriches the design and allows for a clear distinction between floral and geometric motifs. With a total carat weight of approximately 6.00 ct. of diamonds, this jewelry watch represents a particularly significant creation of the Art Deco period, in which the function of the watch is integrated into an elaborate, entirely precious setting.
