JCK Jewelry Agenda: Week of Dec. 17
By Victoria Gomelsky | December 14, 2023
"T-minus eight days till the culmination of the 2023 holiday season. Time is of the essence! Especially at the week’s two biggest events, which both, coincidentally, revolve around timepieces. If you’re in Miami or New York this week, don’t miss the fun.
ATTEND
Cartier Exhibition in Miami Design District: through Dec. 22 (in person)
Baignoire de Cartier watch mini model with quartz movement in 18k yellow gold, $11,800; Cartier
The “Time Unlimited” exhibition shines a light on Cartier’s well-deserved reputation as “the watchmaker of shapes,” a reference to the brand’s history of making non-round wristwatches, from the rectangular Tank and its many fetching iterations to the bathtub-shaped Baignoire, the “It watch” of the season. On view in a temporary exhibit space in the Miami Design District through Friday, the displays will enchant watch lovers but should be equally enticing to fans of great, enduring design.
Accutron “Tipping Point” Exhibit in NYC: through Dec. 31 (in person)
Accutron AnalogShift ExhibitionThe story of how and why Accutron developed its timekeeping technology in the 1960s, shifting the balance of power in modern horology along the way, is the subject of a new collaborative exhibition between Accutron and pre-owned dealer Analog:Shift. “The Tipping Point: An Exhibition of Historical Accutron Models” is open to the public by appointment through Dec. 31. To schedule your walk-through, contact info@analogshift.com.
