The Rules of Style According to Ralph Lauren RL888.
You don’t need magic to escape. All you need is a fine destination like Ralph Lauren women’s flagship store at 888 Madison Avenue where I could experience the new RL888 timepiece. The modern glamour accessories follow in the footsteps of collections like Slim Classique, Stirrup, and 867.
American sophistication and prestigious Swiss watchmaking were forged with the new RL888 collection for women. Bold, refined and playful; a hedonistic spin on classic elegance. The new RL888 timepiece can perform all these magical tricks, but their real skill is expressing your confident sophistication. A priceless task, if you ask me. Especially when you have three-link bracelets or a collection of interchangeable straps in luxurious versions in calf, patent leather, satin, grosgrain, or alligator to choose from. You will not need another watch to match any outfit. But would you choose polished 18-karat rose gold or stainless steel? 32mm or 38mm?
Enjoying the fullness of the life around you
The invigorating horological collection conjures a sun-splashed dream destination. Just in case you hop over to Vienna or Paris for a concert, the rose gold 32mm model is also available with a diamond-set bezel, decorated with a rose-cut diamond or a rose-cut amethyst on the crown, a nod to the Ralph Lauren Purple Label. Ralph Lauren RL888 features a mix of Arabic and Roman numerals, the highest-quality Swiss Made manufacture movements provided by the Richemont luxury group, a 60 months battery life, and vertical Côtes de Genève finishing.
Art Deco High Jewelry x White Gold: There’s been a resurgence of all things retro
Timeless, feminine luxury is embodied in the RL888 white gold timepiece inspired by the quintessence of Art Deco style and the 1920s Jazz Age. Showcasing Ralph Lauren’s dedication to Haute Joaillerie, the bezel and bracelet are adorned with diamonds and black spinels arranged in symmetrical patterns. With an emphasizes on the elegant slender round case, the quartz-powered RL888 38mm High Jewelry White Gold timepiece features 414 triangle and baguette cut diamonds, 159 triangle black spinels, 13 diamonds, 1 rose-cut diamond of ~17.31 carats (case, bracelet & clasp).
Cool, yet very wearable. A strap for every pursuit
Designed for effortless mixing and matching, the RL888 collection features a colorful array of interchangeable straps. The vibrant green strap is a reminder of the true essence of the lime fruit blended with notes of Lavandin in the new Ralph Lauren Lime eaux de parfum.
The blue strap evokes the elegance of seaside living in the Cote d’Azur, capturing the spirit of excitement and artistic expression of the French Riviera.
The Damascena rose strap makes for a stylish summer escape, while the treasures of the safari strap will lead you to ‘a romantic adventure, a world of refinement set against a rugged landscape.’
The RL888 watch straps make a creative contribution to any wardrobe. You can also keep up with the seasonally changing hues of the Ricky handbag. That’s what’s lovable about the collection. Timeless, but ‘definitely of the moment,’ RL888 watches say there is no time like the present.
