Van Cleef & Arpels Lady Arpels Papillon HH17987 from an earlier Lady Arpels generation from Van Cleef & Arpels, this Papillon ref. HH17987 pairs an 18K white gold case with a bezel set in brilliant-cut diamonds. The white dial stays simple and minimal, with hour and minute hands plus a mother-of-pearl butterfly set at an angle. A Swiss quartz caliber regulates timekeeping, chosen for stability and low-maintenance operation rather than mechanical display.

In pre-owned condition, this Van Cleef & Arpels Lady Arpels Papillon Diamond and White Gold Watch HH17987 comes with a secondary leather strap and a gift box.
