About Draped-Effect Watches
Watches featuring a draped or textile-inspired effect were particularly popular in the 1980s, blending fashion and watchmaking. The technique gives both the dial and strap a textured, flowing appearance, evoking elegance and sophistication, and making each piece truly unique.
