Huckleberry Ltd and Fin Des Temps Engraved Rolex Milgauss

Los Angeles based jewelry company Huckleberry Ltd teamed up with engravers Fin Des Temps to create a truly stunning custom engraved Rolex Milgauss. The Milgauss, the red headed stepchild of Rolex models, has never looked better.

Fin Des Temps put in over 140 hours of hand engraving to add the huckleberry plant pattern to the bracelet and case of this stainless steel Rolex. They also added 3.4 carats of black diamonds to the channel set bezel. This one of a kind timepiece is numbered and sold in a reclaimed wood box lined with orange suede.

The organic plant pattern and black diamonds accentuate the orange details of the Milgauss model, giving this watch an old world feel. It looks like a relief carved into a gothic cathedral that has been weathered over hundreds of years. The jewelers added their Huck x Fin signature to the dial and engraved it on the back of the case as well.

This particular wristwatch retails for $36,000 and is currently out of stock. Huckleberry has also engraved a Submariner and a DeepSea, both currently out of stock. It comes as no surprise that there is no stock available. Although it comes with a hefty price tag, this beautiful timepiece is a work of art and will only go up in value. Check out the Huckleberry Ltd website for more of their impressive work.

Balmain Creative Director Oliver Rousteing Wears a Rolex Submariner

.Celebrities.
Olivier Rousteing, creative director of Balmain, presented his Fall/Winter 2016 Womenswear collection at Paris Fashion Week on March 3, 2016. The young French designer has amassed a substantial following on social media (something new for a creative director of a luxury brand) and in celebrity social circles.

Photographed with friends and brand ambassadors Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner after his Fashion Week presentation, Rousteing paired a Rolex Submariner with his signature black blazer and white deep v-neck.

In an interview with The Telegraph UK last year, Rousteing listed the timepiece among his favorite accessories. 'I also love my Rolex Submariner in black and gold for the same reasons – I can wear it swimming at the beach, partying at night and to meetings with the president of the company,' Rousteing said.

The wristwatch has also made several appearances on his popular Instagram feed, which currently boasts over 2.6 Million followers and shots of his celebrity friends, including the Kardashians, Kanye West, Beyonce, Rihanna, Naomi Campbell and many more.

Rousteing has used social media and celebrity to catapult Balmain into the mainstream, a move that the company's CEO originally voiced concern over. However, as The New Yorker reported in their 2015 profile of the designer, the exposure has ultimately paid off for the luxury brand.
