Why Dr Georgia Lee Treats Her Corum Watch Like Art

Her de rigueur timepiece is the functional sort. But this good doctor cannot resist the opulent art work on her Corum timepiece.

Who: Dr Georgia Lee, aesthetic guru, fashion fiend and the brains behind skincare line DrGL. Her expanding business will move to Scotts Medical Center suites at Pacific Plaza next month.

What: Limited edition Corum 

Why: "Watches are usually functional items for me, given my taste for minimalism. But the enamelling captured on the mythical phoenix on the dial, and the depth of the blue draws me to this piece. The watch marries art and craftsmanship with science and precision, very much like my trade in beauty."
