Above all, it captures the dazzling world of the watchmaking and jewelry industry, with its glamour, bubbles, key figures, and darker sides.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_col-sm-6 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"w-image align_none\"><div class=\"w-image-h\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"641\" height=\"972\" src=\"https:\/\/swiss-watch-passport.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/la-fille-de-diamant-cover.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"La Fille de Diamant d&#039;Olivier Rogot.
