This week’s ladies watch of choice completes a Raymond Weil double for the Banks Lyon Watch of the Week. The Raymond Weil ladies Parsifal diamond set watch represents an irresistible melding of competency and top quality manufacture. Raymond Weil is perpetually preoccupied with the ergonomics and finely honed refinements needed for their timepieces, and have also embraced a world of computer assisted design to ensure that all of their products are truly visionary in appearance and function.
Raymond Weil is a family owned business that combines classic Swiss watch expertise with a contemporary flavour of visual design. Founded by Raymond Weil in 1976, the company was born in the midst of a crisis point within the horological industry. The brand name is now situated in Geneva, widely recognised as the locus of the Swiss watch making industry and its corresponding supply of component materials. The Parsifal collection was initially launched in 1992 with a line that was centred upon golden jewellery and diamonds, but was then triumphantly re-launched two decades after its inception with a new range of models that is still available to this date.
The Parsifal family takes its title from Wagner’s opera of the same name, and this particular model is a veritable celebration of feminine excellence and distinction. The smooth round dial of the Parsifal is a flawless creation of painstaking precision, with a reflective mother of pearl face ideally complementing the shimmer of the 0.06 carat diamond set hour markers. The crown on the side of the watch tastefully displays the Raymond Weil brand logo, and is also lacquered to achieve a charmingly silky finish. Raymond Weil perpetually seeks for new directions to take their craftsmanship, and the Parsifal collection is a firm indicator that the brand is not content to rest upon past successes or reputation alone.
The Parsifal range may conform to all of the graceful aesthetics that one might expect from a luxury timepiece formed exclusively for ladies, but the brand has also ensured that their creations are expertly practical to use. The dial is equipped with a date window at 3 o’clock to allow the effortless transfer of information, and the sapphire crystal is treated with an anti-glare procedure to ensure premier levels of clarity.  The firmly attached 28 mm stainless steel case also possesses a robust water resistance up to depths of 100m, resulting in a timepiece that is impressively resilient to many accidents, and guaranteed for at least 2 years. Each Raymond Weil wristwatch undergoes minute levels of examination before it receives the brand certificate of quality, and as many as 350 individual checking procedures are utilised to make certain that each timepiece is perfectly suited for purpose.
In order to secure the Parsifal wristwatch to the wrist, Raymond Weil have supplied a highly functional stainless steel bracelet, a choice that has nonetheless retained the timeless essence of a true luxury watch, whilst also perfectly complementing the watch dial and casing. The folding clasp features a double push security system, allowing the timepiece to fit comfortably around the wrist in a strikingly innovative fashion. To give life to their completed concept, Raymond Weil have furnished the watch with an a meticulously oscillating quartz movement, allowing the wearer to retain complete confidence in the time keeping capabilities of this gorgeous work of art.
