18K Zegg & Cerlati Monte Carlo Place du Casino Watch

Our Perspective: 

If you never heard of Zegg & Cerlati, don’t feel alone, because it’s not a brand that many watch people know. However, if you ask a select few, they might tell you stories about summers in Monaco where they walked into one of the many prestigious Zegg & Cerlati boutiques and walked out with a new Rolex, Cartier or one of the many other brands they are an authorized retailer for. 

In addition to their successful watch collabs with Hublot, IWC, Zenith, Franck Muller and others, Zegg & Cerlati decided to take a stab at creating their own watch. As a successful purveyor of jewelry and watches in a country known for the ultra wealthy, it’s no shock that their own watch was a chunk of solid gold completely adorned from every angle with round brilliant natural diamonds. 

But look a little closer and you’ll notice other details like the dial design somewhat reminiscent of a Tank Asymétrique (can we even say this?). Also, there's the oversized 18K gold and diamond Z&C logo that doubles as the clasp and keeper- which weighs more than most gold watches alone. 

If you’re looking for a show stopper and a watch that nobody else will ever have (seriously the serial is #1) then now is possibly your only chance. The only thing we ask is that you make sure your wrist is big enough to handle this brick of gold and diamonds weighing in at almost 300 grams and set with over 1000 round brilliant natural diamonds.
