RL Western Cushion – Turquoise Gemstone Dial
Ralph Lauren unveils the latest addition to The American Western Watch Collection: a striking cushion watch featuring a natural turquoise gemstone dial. Continuing the tradition of blending fine Swiss craftsmanship with iconic Ralph Lauren style, this new release inspired by Mr. Lauren’s deep admiration for the American West.
The new RL Cushion with turquoise gemstone dial encapsulates the authentic spirit and distinctive character of vintage rodeo and concho belts that have long influenced Mr. Lauren’s designs. These elements first appeared in his Santa Fe-inspired women’s runway show in the 1980s and continue to be integral to his collections today. For this model, Mr. Lauren reimagines the organic motifs traditional to Western belts in a sophisticated cushion-shaped silhouette, crafted from antiqued sterling silver and paired with a burnished brown vachetta leather strap.
Ralph Lauren collaborated with master artisans from around the world to ensure the highest quality and authenticity in each component of the watch. The leather straps are meticulously hand-tooled in Texas and burnished in Italy, while the metal cases and buckles are hand-engraved and aged in New York City. The turquoise gemstone dial, a new addition to the collection, cut from natural turquoise stone, complete with its unique inclusions, retains the distinctive combinations of Roman and Arabic numerals and Breguet-style hands that are hallmarks of the Ralph Lauren brand. Variations in engraving and patina make each watch a one-of-a-kind piece.
The cushion case, measuring 42mm by 10.6mm, is powered by a mechanical movement crafted by Piaget exclusively for Ralph Lauren. The self-winding caliber RL514, known for its precision and reliability, features
