The celestial map in the palm of your hand

A new, feminine interpretation of a unique horological feature – the celestial map – explores the full range of artistic possibilities offered by Métiers Rares and practised at the heart of Manufacture Jaeger-LeCoultre for generations. With its enamel watch dial, hand-painted lapis lazuli sky, its bezel set with sapphires and its shimmering diamonds, the Rendez-Vous Celestial makes a striking statement. Taking its inspiration from the spectacular lightshow of the aurora borealis, this jewel of creativity holds in its beating heart the Jaeger-LeCoultre 809/1 automatic movement.

A fiery temperament beneath a brightly coloured wave of pink and blue

Its generous 37.5mm dial traces the moving constellations of the stars with precision. Powered by its automatic movement, time passes in beauty with captivating hues of deep blue to intense purple, colours prized, rare and precious in the world of Haute Horlogerie. Against this backdrop suffused with shades of amethyst, the celestial map, viewed from the northern hemisphere, gracefully rotates.

The most beautiful expression of the Métiers Rares

From its crown of baguette cut sapphires, to the light play that reflects like a mirror, and its inviting pool of blue, pink and violet hues, the Rendez-Vous Celestial is both a piece of jewellery and a work of art, fully harnessing the inventiveness and genius of the Maison’s Métiers Rares.

Besides the comfort and practicality offered by its automatic movement, the Rendez-Vous collection has gained a wealth of new characteristics, to be discovered in a personal and intimate way like so many unique adventures awaiting you. Each of these interpretations is the fruit of many long hours in the Vallée de Joux workshops, and now their story continues as they go to join the woman who will wear them, and an enduring chapter opens. Truly, madly, deeply...
