72 VEGASMAGAZINE.COM A strong trend at this year's Swiss watch fairs was a renewed emphasis on women's pieces. While new ladies' timepieces and collections are well-repre- sented annually at Geneva and Basel, the 2017 difference is that the industry let its female clientele know loud and clear that they were top of mind: stunning new additions to collections that beforehand had a decidedly masculine flair; the incorporation of non-traditional materials into feminine designs; the expansion in categories such as smart watches, world timers, and sports watches, often considered the domain of men. This year, watchmakers are right on time with what women want. For more watch features and expanded coverage go to vegasmagazine .com/watches-and-jewelry. .

Ca d'Oro, The Grand Canal Shoppes at Venetian and Palazzo, 702-696-0080; tagheuer.com Richard Mille is known for using NTPT carbon in a number of his unique timepieces. This year, the Swiss manufacturer gave this rugged material a decidedly feminine spin by incorporating red gold and diamonds in the eye-catching design of the RM 037 NTPT ($153,500–$190,500). Due to the hardness of NTPT carbon, special CNC machines are required to create the lush pavé setting that to the touch is smooth as silk. The Shops at Crystals, 702-588-7272; richardmille.com
