Introduction This Christian Dior Malice ladies' watch is a refined expression of the Maison's iconic aesthetic, combining a polished stainless steel case with the instantly recognisable Dior Oblique monogram strap. Christian Dior, founded in Paris in 1946, has long been synonymous with elegance and timeless style, and this timepiece encapsulates the brand's ability to blend haute couture heritage with everyday wearability. Historical & Collector Value The Malice model, introduced in the early 2000s, has become one of the most sought-after Dior watches among collectors of vintage designer accessories. Its distinctive rectangular case with an asymmetric silhouette and the blue Dior Oblique canvas strap - a pattern first created in 1967 by Marc Bohan - make it a true collector's piece. With the resurgence of interest in early 2000s Dior aesthetics and Oblique monogram pieces, examples in genuine condition are increasingly difficult to source. This watch appeals to both watch enthusiasts and fashion collectors seeking authentic vintage Dior craftsmanship.
