Hublot Black Caviar Bang Timepiece

I did a post on the white diamond version of this Hublot timepiece back when I use do notes on facebook. It's truly an amazing watch, that uses an ingenius method to set each stone to create the casing. This type of precision, and attention to quality may have been what prompted LVMH to purchase the wristwear company.

The Hublot Black Caviar Bang. Coming from the Big Bang line with all its derivatives, the Black Caviar Bang has an 18k white gold case and clasp that feature hundreds of precision cut black diamonds, for a total of 34.5 total carats. This includes 322 diamonds on the case, 179 on the bezel, and another 30 on the clasp at the end of the rubber strap. Black diamonds are exceedingly rare, and are attributed for most of the Black Caviar Bang's million dollar value.

These would make some dope cuff links!

The Vuitton diamonds have between 61 and 77 facets and have been set into a bracelet, a pair of earrings, two brooches, a ring and a necklace-the latter consisting of 1,001 tiny brilliant-cut diamonds totaling 15 carats, coexisting with 65 round flower diamonds (49 carats) and 79 pointed ones (44 carats), for a combined bling bang of 108 carats that retails for about $4 million.

I'm blogging (officially) to blogclaaat!

I have had my blogger account for sometime, but I have had it ice in hopes I would be developing a full web infrastructure to house all my ambitions...from clothing, music, politics, tech warfare etc. If you are here, you can see that the infrastructure is not complete but given my frequent notes on facebook, and encouraging comments from some friends I decided to hit the ground blogging.

So thank you for checking out go&d! Gold Oil & Diamonds is a creation that plays on the earth’s most lucrative natural resources. This will also be the title of the new online urban centre for fashion, design, music, art, and lifestyle materials. All of which will eventually be available online for purchase, and information purposes.

CHEERS,
