Dear All,

A newbie here. I'm particularly interested in the Van Cleef and Arpels model called "Pont des Amoureux", a.k.a. "Rendez-vous". The pictures are added below. I'm particularly keen to get the black one but also open to discuss other model(s).

Is there a TD that can provide these? I really dug into most of them but only some were selling VCA, however not the model I'm looking for. Could any TD or forum member who made a successful transaction for a VCA can reply to me please?

Note: Fairfell website (can't provide the link, it's non-TD) offers the watch but as it's not listed as a TD, I opted out of it. Still if you think it can be trustworthy, happy to hear your comments.

Many thanks in advance!

I'm not sure this one has been repped and if it is, don't know how well (probably not very well)

Your best bet is to send an email to a couple of TDs to see if they can have it. If they can't, nobody on the web will be able to get it

I can’t think of a quartz movement that has retrograde hours and minutes. Cool idea for a watch though.

I bought that watch as a present for my mother. It has a quartz movement inside. Got it in China during one of my business trips

Glaude and Ams55557 thanks for your valuable comments, much appreciated.

dadog13 how does it perform in general? any flaws? and do you have the name of the shop by any chance?

Never seen one of these repped before.

Somebody just have to! Look at the beauty of these, at 12 o'clock, so twice a day, the gentleman and lady kiss. A brilliant use of poetry and retrograding. I guess the model is quite new so it's normal that it's not repped yet but I really believe it's gotta be, there isn't any relationship problem that this watch can't solve :)

post #4 (re read it again)

oh sorry for the misunderstanding :) It surely is repped but it may not be very easy to acquire unless one doesn't buy it on spot while in China. Do you think the place you bought it can send it to UK?

No I did not.
I am not sure it will look close to gen at all, considering the complication of the watch.
