Known for his avant-garde approach, Albert, a Geneva-born visionary, rejected conventional symmetry, instead drawing inspiration from the raw, unfiltered beauty of nature. Part of his Vague d'Or (Golden Wave) collection for Omega, this secret wristwatch features an intricate, flowing gold structure, reminiscent of solar winds or the shifting surface of an alien ocean. The gilt dial, hidden beneath its sculptural exterior, adds to its mystery—like a time capsule waiting to be discovered. Albert’s work at Omega in the 1960s pushed watch design beyond traditional boundaries, blending fine jewelry with horology in a way few dared to attempt. The Vague d’Or is one of those rare creations that defies time—both as a watch and as an artifact from an era when design knew no limits.
