The boutique on Oxford Street

These overlapping layers are a reference to a watch mechanism. The touches of red evoke the brand's attachment to the world of motor racing.

Bella Hadid's Link Lady
For the occasion Bella Hadid wore the Link Lady Limited Edition designed for her. To emphasize the glamorous, vivacious side of the TAG Heuer Ambassador, a Link watch was chosen. This model, which received a masterful makeover in 2016, is the brand’s most feminine model.
All matt black, with a magnificent mother-of-pearl dial proudly showcasing 12 diamonds, the watch is modern and contemporary, made entirely from ceramic, the perfect watchmaking material. The bracelet is the famous Link design, which is one of the most comfortable bracelets to wear. Each component of the bracelet is polished, ensuring it is smooth to the touch and flexible on the wrist. Thank to this sublime attention to detail, wearing the Link becomes a veritable experience, one filled with elegance and charm. The piece is further embellished by a bezel set with 48 diamonds, while the back of the watch is engraved with the star's signature. The result is elegant, glamorous, and full of character. Just like Bella herself.
