Philippe Charriol pays a final tribute to his wife Marie-Olga with a timepiece bearing her effigy

The Marie-Olga watch, from the Swiss watchmaker and jeweller Charriol, is the result of a joint project between Marie-Olga Charriol, ambassador, Director of Group Public Relations and Brand Events Manager, and the founder, her late husband Philippe Charriol, who died in February 2019.

 

This jewelry watch which evokes Marie-Olga Charriol’s passion for horseback riding, has an elegant horseshoe-shaped clasp, also representing Charriol’s “C”. It is a jewellery watch made with taste and attention to details. Revealing its namesake’s real attraction for perfection, this timepiece is sporty, glamorous and feminine.

 

The watch’s sophisticated bracelet, made up of multiple twisted steel cables, reproduce the brand’s DNA. The black or white dial is integrated in a pink or yellow gold case, set or not with diamonds. The hours are marked by diamond hour markers or oversized Roman numerals.
