As we all know, we don't hear much of Maurice Lacroix releases because of their very rarely release watches. But whenever they release something, it will surely be a watch to have on your wrist like this Rectangulaire Petite Seconde.This watch by Maurice Lacroix is made with a stainless steel rectangular case but has a bezel made of a luxurious 18 carat rose gold. Aside from that, this watch is also matched with a brown crocodile leather with an 18 carat gold clasp. It also has a dial presented in a very classic way. It has a pure silver on the middle in guilloche pattern surrounded by white color. Just below the silver part of the dial, you can find there the separate seconds sub dial. This dial is accented with gold hour numbers in Roman numerals and blue hands. This watch is indeed a classic in the making if you judge it by the way it looks.Even though they don't often release watches, each Maurice Lacroix watch, like this Rectangulaire Petite Seconde, is still luxurious. This watch by Maurice Lacroix will cost you about $13,000.00.

With Bulgari focusing heavily on their new Serpenti line of snake themed watches, it gave me a chance to think about some of the other snake themed watches that came out in the last few years. I always appreciated the artistic look of the Maurice Lacroix Divina Temptation line of limited edition watches (even though I wondered about who really bought them). They even used snakes in their ads pretty well. Maurice Lacroix is not being targeted by Bulgari, as the Italian brand has done snake themed watches way in the past. Bulgari clearly did a better job with naming the watches, as their Serpenti collection of watches and jewelry, by its name, should clearly resonate as having a reptilian look. What is up with how Maurice Lacroix names its watches? Though for many, these watches will be more wearable than the Bulgari pieces - though you could easily view both as ugly. The "Temptation" part of the name likely relates to the snake being the 'bad guy' in the Adam & Eve story. Poor python. The women's watch has a 24.5mm wide case in 18k white gold and comes in four types. Each has a collection of jewels that make up the snake image on the polished solid silver dial. The watch face itself is not exactly easy to read, but that isn't the point. There is a Swiss quartz movement inside the watch as well. There are four versions of the watch. A green toned version with rubies and green tsavorites, a brown version with garnets and blue sapphires (both of these are limited to just 10 pieces). There is also a red toned version with diamonds, rubies, and pink sapphires, and finally an orange toned version with orange and yellow sapphires, and rubies. These final two versions are each limited to 30 pieces each. Originally released a few years ago, there are actually still some of them out there. Prices are about $60,000 - $100,00 each.
