Queen of Hearts

 

The Backes & Strauss Queen of Hearts is a majesty of a bejewelled timepiece. The craftsmanship involved in making these pieces is the meeting of the Masters. The Master diamond polisher fashioning and cutting the 36 identical heart shaped diamonds that are then set on the bezel. This is no ordinary bezel-the master jeweller crafting this pieces of jewellery enabling him to set the 36 heart shaped diamonds in a prong setting. The Bezel then neatly fits into the beautiful slim Renaissance Case set with 188 ideal cut round brilliant diamonds. The dial made by the master dial maker is a white mother-0f-pearl set with 70 ideal cut round brilliants diamonds and 4 heart shaped rubies to every quarter of the hour. The beautifully hand engraved mechanical movement which is visible from the open case back has a power reserve of 36 hours.
