Ludo Secret watches celebrate the timeless elegance of one of Van Cleef & Arpels’ signature designs: the Ludo bracelet, created in 1934. Evoking a belt, these creations perpetuate the Maison’s affinity for trompe-l’oeil artistry.

The new sapphire Ludo Secret watch perpetuates this tradition, revisiting a model from 1949. It cradles the wrist with a bracelet composed of mirror-polished yellow gold “briquette” links, carefully assembled and adjusted by hand. Joined in a flexible mesh, they seem to be delicately woven together. The sunny glow of the yellow gold mingles with the intense blue of the sapphires in a harmony of contrasts. 

At the crossroads of Watchmaking and High Jewelry, the creations combine the discreet reading of time with the excellence of jewelry-making craftsmanship. While the ingenuity of invisible clasps and assembly techniques brings flexibility and elegance to the bracelets, the stones are meticulously selected and matched according to exacting quality criteria.
