The House’s High Watchmaking expands its repertoire with Gucci Interlocking, a new line that combines two emblematic complications – the flying tourbillon and jumping hours – which dance together in a striking new cushion shape case. The new Gucci Interlocking collection is a masterclass in details, its multi-layered dial display filled with motion and depth. The watch’s jumping hour display is crafted from a hand-lacquered hour disc of Roman numerals, inspired by the shape of the Interlocking G motif. As the time jumps to the correct hour, the Roman numeral is revealed in an aperture within a semi-transparent, smoked sapphire glass in black, which subtly conceals the other numerals on the hour disc. A shimmering layer of iridescent aventurine glass encloses the minute hand disc, which also moves in sync with the oscillating weight behind – giving the design a captivating allure. This is further enhanced by the flying tourbillon at the heart of the dial, with a contemporary cage embellished with a GG logo that’s also echoed on the engraved caseback. Such attention to detail also marks the cushion case and two-part bezel, both featuring a mix of brushed and polished finishes for a remarkable play of light. Sized at 41mm with a 10.7mm thickness, and coming in pink gold, the Gucci Interlocking is a true feat of outstanding craftsmanship and watchmaking expertise.
