Coronet’s Mudan Watch Recognised for “Most Diamonds Set on a Watch” by Guinness World Records

Coronet, a leading international jewellery brand, was recognised for the 9th time by the Guinness World Records (GWR), this time for its ‘Mudan’ watch that was unveiled at Baselworld 2019 and accorded the recognition for “Most diamonds set on a watch”.

The recently GWR awarded 'Mudan' diamond watch features 15,858 diamonds with a total of 50.01 carats, the Company said. The watch is set in 18K gold with artist Reena Ahluwalia's unmatchable diamond painting on the dial. The 3D painting dial has diamonds on 3, 6, 9, 12-hour position.

Reena Ahluwalia’s diamond paintings are hyper-realistic and take hundreds of hours to paint. The watch is inspired by Peonies, as they symbolize nobility, honor and wealth. Reena's diamond painting on the dial represents the shining nobility that we carry within. Peony (Mudan 牡丹) is known as the 'King of the flowers' in the Chinese culture.

Some of the previous innovative diamond creations from Coronet that have been recognised by GWR include the most valuable Guitar featuring 1.6kg of 18K gold and 400 carats of diamonds; most diamonds set on a handbag; most diamonds set on a guitar; among others. 

Aaron Shum, founder of Coronet® and President of Aaron Shum Jewelry Limited said, “Since 2015, Coronet is continuously surprising jewellers and fashion lovers at BaselWorld when we unveiled the dazzling Diamond Guitar. This is the ninth time that Coronet has been honoured with a Guinness World Records title. We are proud to showcase our one-of-a-kind 'Mudan' watch with artist Reena Ahulwalia’s masterpiece on the watch's dial."

Reena Ahluwalia, an award-winning jewellry designer, diamond painter said, “I feel honoured that my artwork has made it into the Guinness World Records. While growing up, I used to read about the Guinness World Records with pure amazement, so this feels very special to me.”

Coronet also showcased its latest jewellery collections, including an artistic and exciting new watch collection in partnership with Reena Ahluwalia, featuring Reena’s 3D diamond paintings on the watch dial.
