Enigma Spyder

Overall Condition: Outstanding, new old stock condition. Case, dial and bracelet are in like- new condition. Factory diamond settings are intact. 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! Gianni Bulgari, a watch designer and third-generation member of the famed Greek-Italian jewelry dynasty, clearly doesn't feel this way. In 1989, following the sale of his stake in the Bulgari company to his family, he established a new watchmaking firm called GB Enigma in Switzerland to design compelling timepieces with unusual designs. This particular Enigma, a Spyder II, is emblematic of the firm's bold design philosophy: Housed in a rectangular 20mm stainless steel case with a blue cabochon crown and a sapphire crystal, it features a smooth black coated steel housing diamond-set "12" and 6" indices, plus a handsome black Arto Deco-style dial with rectangular indices and a steel 'dauphine' handset. Powered by a hardy quartz movement and paired to a matching steel multi-link bracelet with a signed steel pin buckle, this elegant dress watch also ships with its complete kit. For someone on the hunt for a glitzy timepiece to accompany an elegant night at a soirée or gala, it's an ideal choice.
