5G.Factory has perfectly replicated this exquisite Van Cleef & Arpels Lady Arpels Ronde des Papillons aerial ballet watch. Three butterflies alternate gracefully on the dial, indicating the minutes in a manner reminiscent of a relay in the clouds. As one butterfly just disappears into the clouds, another makes its appearance elsewhere, taking over the task of t.mes
keeping. The responsibility for the hour's chime rests with the swallow, which sweeps from 0 to 12, counting the hour markers with its wings, and then jumps back from the end of the 12 marker to the start of the 1 marker in a reverse motion. This cyclical movement illustrates the beauty of t.mes
.Additionally, to bring vitality to the dial, a gentle press of the button at the 7 o'clock position triggers a ten-second aerial ballet featuring the three butterflies, which return to their original paths at the end, keeping pace with the passage of t.mes
and continuing to provide precise t.mes
keeping, adding a unique charm to the watch.The round dial, made of blue mother-of-pearl, features three specially designed butterfly-shaped minute hands and a reverse-jumping swallow hour hand. It is also adorned with clouds in the sky as decorative and obscuring elements, making the watch's scenery appear more natural and elegant, showcasing a classic design philosophy that is truly breathtaking.The design of the case back aligns perfectly with the theme of the dial. The watch features a transparent case back adorned with three painted butterflies, while the inner layer of the sapphire crystal case back is engraved with delicate floating clouds, making the three butterflies appear as if they are dancing gracefully among the colorful clouds.
