Antoine Preziuso - White Angel

  Click on the mouse wheel to see the large size ...

A seminal collection by Antoine Preziuso, The Art of Tourbillon proposes, for several years now, numerous interpretations such as Stardust -the movement and case of which are set with more than 3,200 diamonds- or Meteor, sculpted in a meteorite, prowess that only Antoine Preziuso masters to this day as well as Pop Art and Pop Star.
Having become one of the icons of the “Art of Tourbillon” trademark it now finds itself enriched with two new creations “White Angel” & “Black Devil”.
Fashioned in a Platinum case, “White Angel” exalts angelism in opposition to the tempter “Black Devil” cut in Titanium adorned with black diamonds and endowed with red hands that confer it a rather devilish touch.
And you, who are you? Angel… or Demon

Creating a meteorite case is a labor-consuming and highly technical work. First the meteorite solid block is cut into parts, then the bars are cut into case forms, after which the mechanical finishing starts, which consists of:


• carving holes and deepenings on the cases (a place of the crystal fixation, a hole for the crown and others);
• the case's polishing or oxidating (depending on its structure);
• the meteorite case's gilding or rhodium-coating (to protect the movement).
