This Carree Lacquer features a quadruple stepped yellow gold case that provides significant depth and presence. The dial is a split composition of Lapis and Tiger Eye lacquer, capturing the earthy and mineral-inspired palettes that defined the decade. It's a bold, geometric piece that represents a commitment to high-style jewelry watches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThe Aesthetic Of Semi Precious Materials\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe use of lacquer to mimic Lapis and Tiger Eye was a signature move for high-end dress watches during this period. It creates a visual tension between the deep blue and the warm browns of the faux stone. This was a watch designed for a wearer who wanted something expressive and unconventional. The stepped case acts like a frame for the artwork on the dial, making the entire piece feel like a curated object rather than just a timepiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHonest Condition And Material Character\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe solid gold case remains in good condition, preserving the distinct edges of the stepped bezel. The lacquer dial shows visible degradation on the Tiger Eye side, which is a common occurrence for these specific finishes as they age. It is currently mounted on a clean leather strap. The manual wind movement is running strong after passing our test bench.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eA Statement Piece For The Vintage Enthusiast\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is for the collector who values the specific and unapologetic character of seventies luxury. It does not try to be a subtle dress watch. Instead, it leans into the textures and shapes that made that era famous.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Danny's Vintage Watches","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54885664915747,"sku":"587","price":5000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/6099\/1523\/files\/DSCF5252.jpg?v=1774969897","url":"https:\/\/dannysvintagewatches.com\/products\/lucien-piccard-carree-lacquer-14k-yellow-gold-lapis-tiger-eye-dial","provider":"Danny's Vintage Watches","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
