Let’s see the artistic value base on function

The origin of the wristwatch’s artistic value should be the perceptual extension of its function. Like the classical and enduring Breguet’s Blue Steel hand, it is the sublimation from the normal stainless hand.

Minute repeater is the most typical example. Without fluorescence, people research the minute repeater to read time in the dark. After 30 years develop, the fluorescence is really mature at present. But the minute repeater is also popular and can not be displaced. These are all because it’s artistic value. For example we always try to find out a philosophic reason that why Mona Lisa has such a mysterious smile in stead of appreciates the pictorial skill. Minute repeater invites us to an unprecedented field. We do not only pay attention to the watch’s visual value, but the combination of visual and auditory. And this development brings us more enjoyment and more aesthetic value.

Please appreciate a picture.

This is the work of art that uses the function to show the art. The little faerie dance on the green dial to construct a beautiful atmosphere is not the only conception the artistic want to show us. We should also pay attention to the framework of tourbillon especially special wave pattern which have been decorated on pillar at Van Den square. They make the whole picture looking more harmonious. The detailed beauty has been represented because of tourbillon.
