Jaquet Droz Only Watch ’09

Posted under Jaquet Droz

         Jaquet Droz has become a world leader on the market of watch manufacturing due to its reformist and inventive designs. The watches promoted by Jaquet Droz have gained a reputation of being inaccessible timepieces, as the brand has chosen to limit their number only to special editions.

         Displaying unique technical performance and innovative aesthetical features, the timepieces presented by Jaquet Droz are highly valuable and appreciated even by the most pretentious watch connoisseurs.

         The new timepiece introduced by Jaquet Droz has seen the spot light at the Only Watch exhibition, where famous brands exposed some of the best timepieces of the year 2009 with a charity purpose. The model presented by Jaquet Droz has innovation written all over it as it displays a very unconventional design, featuring red and white as main colors. The new Jaquet Droz Only Watch model is made of ceramic and measures 44 mm in diameter. What’s really interesting is that its dial was very laboriously manufactured as it required 10 layers of paint exposed at different temperatures. The red enamel dial features hour and minutes indicators, but not placed on the center of the dial as we’re used to see at most wristwatches and also it is equipped with a seconds counter, positioned on the lower part of the dial. The three o’clock position is marked by the logo of Jaquet Droz, attesting in the fact that by all means this new Jaquet Droz Only Watch is an original.

         The red dial of the watch is quite hard to attain and the designers from Jaquet Droz have admitted they spent almost six years on trying to stabilize the red color. Through a very meticulous process, the red color was obtained by exposing the dial to many different temperatures; until all the layers applied were one. Although complicated to manufacture, the dial of the watch represents the element of elegance and sophistication, managing to make of a plain white watch something very appealing and refined.

         Just the simple fact of being a Jaquet Droz original makes you think about the fine mechanism displayed on this watch. The new Jaquet Droz Only Watch 2009 uses an automatic mechanical movement powered by a Caliber 2663, which generates a 68 hours power reserve and a 30 meters water resistance. Simple, yet elegant, Jaquet Droz Only Watch ’09 represents the successful combination between style and functionality.

         The strap of the watch is made of a white rubber material and is fitted with a stainless steel clasp. The new Jaquet Droz Only Watch wraps the wrist graciously, giving a note of distinction to whoever might be wearing it.

         One of the best reputed watch brands in the world, Jaquet Droz has never failed to impress its worldwide fans and has never broken its commitment towards creating innovative timepieces that would remain in the history of watch manufacturing as break through masterpieces of Haute Horlogerie.
