Perrelet looks to the banks of the Nile for inspiration with the Cleopatra Collection, a line that pays homage to the last queen of Egypt. Cleopatra’s name has long been synonymous with beauty, intrigue, and power, qualities reflected in these refined timepieces. At the heart of each model lies the Double Rotor, the manufacture’s signature invention, reinterpreted here as a fan-shaped motif. Set with 30 diamonds and luminous mother-of-pearl, it comes alive with every flick of the wrist, sending flashes of light across the dial like a jewel in motion.
The 36.5 mm case is crafted in lightweight grade 2 titanium, chosen for both comfort and resilience. You can opt for a polished bezel or one fully set with 64 diamonds. Five dial variations capture the colors of Cleopatra’s world: the shimmer of the Nile, the blue skies of Thebes, the soft pink of Alexandria, the iridescence of a peacock’s feather, and the dark mystery of kohl-lined eyes. A solitaire diamond placed at 12 o’clock adds an unmistakable touch of luxury.
Beneath the artistry lies serious watchmaking. The in-house calibre P-181-H drives the Cleopatra Collection, a slim automatic movement designed around the Double Rotor. With 100 finely finished components and a 42-hour reserve, it combines technical integrity with elegance. A supple titanium bracelet with quick-change system completes the package, allowing for a seamless switch to leather straps. Cleopatra’s legacy of charm and influence finds a modern echo in these contemporary jewels for the wrist.
