Pierre DeRoche extends the GrandCliff Collection this year by introducing on the market of watch manufacturing the beautiful and inspiring new Retro Hour Watch. This watch rises to the reputation of its brand established back in 1937 and it maintains the spirit of its legacy alive. Governed by 4 generations, the Pierre DeRoche brand has fallen nowadays under the patronage of Pierre Dubois who shares the same passion and complete dedication for watch manufacturing as his great-grandfather, Marcel Depraz, the famous watch maker that created what the watch connoisseurs refer today as the Depraz caliber.

        With great history behind it, the brand presents now the new Pierre DeRoche GrandCliff Retro Hour Watch, a timepiece whose design delights from the very second you laid your eyes on it. Passionate for effective designs, the watch makers from Pierre DeRoche propose fine lines of design characterized by a luxurious appearance appropriate to the prestige of this brand. The design refers to a delicate 42.5 mm in diameter case crafted from 316L stainless steel, a material whose surfaces have been treated under state-of-the-art technologies to reflect a polished and satin-finished look. Even though the case is covered in sapphire crystal, both its back and its top, the mechanism is strongly secured and protected against any damages, the case assuring even 100 m of water resistance.

        To fit the idea of elegance intended by its designers, the new Pierre DeRoche GrandCliff Retro Hour Watch makes use of a black dial that contrasts with polished steel hands. The dial is not crowded and it presents all the functions available quite neatly. Amongst these functions we can mention those of the traditional hours, minutes and seconds, a date window located under 12 o’clock, two sub-dials expressing the counters of the chronograph and an open arch displaying information regarding the retrograde 12 hour function. Some Arabic numerals are also present on the dial, while the logo of the brand is inscribed between 12 o’clock and the date window.

        The working of all these functions is owed to the self-winding Depraz caliber, exclusively made and assembled by the Pierre DeRoche house of watch manufacturing. The mechanism is visible through the case back that offers an interesting view to the work of an artist, with all the decorations and engravings specific to such a prestigious brand like Pierre DeRoche.

        The strap of the new Pierre DeRoche GrandCliff Retro Hour Watch comes on many color variations depending on the model. The strap can be black, white or red and crafted from alligator leather. If the model features a red strap, then all the hands from the dial are also read, if the strap is either black or white, the hands are crafted from steel and match the straps traditionally. The straps come equipped with a folding clasp made from 316L steel and it assures the ultimate safety. Definitely a must-have of the season, the new Pierre DeRoche GrandCliff Retro Hour Watch will surely please your thirst for valuable timepieces.
