Dear LittleMo, Please note that Veronika posted a photo of the diamond watch in July 2013 (July 7 or 8). You can be find the post below. Therefore, you will be able to compare the watch and the choker and you will see that we can have a match bewteen the two jewels. Franck --Previous Message-- : Actually, I think the central diamond and : sapphire piece of that choker (in the Getty : Image photo posted by LittleMo) comes from : either one of the pair of earrings or from : the ring (shown as part of the box jewels in : the Getty Images photo) because of its : sunray design. : : I agree with LittleMo's thought that several : sapphires (surrounded by diamonds) in the : watch could have been worn by Princess Diana : as earrings. There are also some sapphires : on the top of the jewel box itself. : : In the Getty Image picture of Diana wearing : the choker in LittleMo's post, the choker is : made up of a diamond band, a : sapphire/diamond center and some series of : blue stone beads. : : In Frank's post, a picture of Diana with : another choker includes a velcro on which a : diamond band with the flat-looking : sapphire/diamond center is laid. Both : chokers looked different in design and : appearance except maybe the diamond band in : each picture. : : --Previous Message-- : Yes, I have long thought that was the watch : too. In fact I may have seen picture : comparisons to prove it. : Here it is from Getty : : : Its not the bracelet, seen below, as in that : the diamond band is two stones wide and : separates as it gets close to the sapphire. : : : : But then looking at the display of wedding : gifts there must have been a lot of : remodelling of stones, as the watch strap : had a lot of sapphires in it (that I think : she used as earrings) : : : But I don't know where the post is that you : are talking about ? : : : --Previous Message-- : Dear all, : : I am pretty sure that the chain of small : diamonds, (three deep), which runs halfway : round the choker is the diamond evening : watch from Sheikha Fatima Bint : Mubarak-al-Nayiyan of the United Arab : Emirates (wedding gift to Princess Diana). : : It has exacly the same design (Three deep : chain of small diamond). : : (See a post concering the watch wedding gift : to Princess Diana) : : Franck : : : : :
