Christian Dior - Maris - 没有保留价 - D78-109 - 女士 - 1990-1999

Introduction

The Christian Dior Maris is a distinctive expression of the Maison's approach to watchmaking, combining bold geometric design with the elegance that defines the Parisian house. With its wide polished bezel framing a compact rectangular dial, this piece embodies the modernist aesthetic that Dior pursued at the turn of the millennium. It is a watch that appeals to collectors who value fashion heritage as much as horological character.

Historical & Collector Value

Founded in 1946 by Christian Dior, the House of Dior revolutionised post-war fashion with the New Look and has since extended its refined design philosophy into timepieces. The Maris (or Malice) line, introduced in the late 1990s and early 2000s, has become increasingly sought after by collectors of vintage designer watches. Its architectural case shape, wide polished bezel and understated dial with a single oversized 12 numeral make it instantly recognisable. As Dior has shifted focus toward higher-end complications in recent years, earlier quartz-driven models such as this one have grown in collectability for their distinctive design language and connection to the Maison's design heritage.
