Something about it reminds me of the McDonald's mint shake that comes out (or at least used to) every year around St. Patrick's Day.

Sold!

Is this an off-catalogue production piece, or did Federer basically get to place an actual (custom) special order?

Nice watch but the Insta poster really needs to brush up on his stone terminology. They are not baguette stones on the bezel.

The EM in the reference is for emeraude (emerald). They are most definitely emeralds.

Could you name a few references using colored sapphires instead of gems?

Give us a clue then.

Can't be asscher or emerald because the corners are intact.

So what do you call isosceles trapezoidal baguettes?

Emerald baguettes sounds about right. What else are they called?

They are closer to princess cut than a baguette. Princess is square and baguette is long like the shape of the bread.

However, I personally think the stones maybe especially cut to fit the bezel, so to make a ring without gaps.

Is there a place where I can see all of these “off catalogue” pieces?
