For information call Mauricio at 310.433-9293Jaquet Droz is a Swiss watch brand that dates back to 1738, when Pierre Jaquet Droz was on his way to establishing himself as an unquestionable watchmaker and craftsman. He earned great respect after his travel to Spain in 1758, when the King bought his entire stock. Prior to that he had only one workshop in La-Chaux-de-Fonds, but this allowed him to open a second workshop in London, where he began to work on his masterpieces. Later opening a third workshop, the highly recognized, watchmaker toured around the world and was universally applauded for his works of art, both hydrologically and aesthetically. He was known as the finest craftsman of his day and went on to teaching his techniques to many exceptional watchmakers and craftsmen.The featured watch is an Automatic, Black Ceramic Jaquet Droz Grande Second. This exclusive timepiece is an extremely Limited Edition timepiece, numbered to only 8 pieces worldwide. The Grande Second Ceramique presents a captivating black case manufactured from breathtakingly minute particles of zirconium powder, which is formed into a highly resilient case through a state of the art molding process. Complementing this exceptionally strong material, are hands in black gold and the dial in dark gray, the color combination creates a mysterious and intriguing look. Balance is embodied in the hour and minute subdial which is subtly adjoined to the large seconds subdial like concentric circles with the seconds subdial located at 6 as it intersects with the hour and minute display located at 12. Completing this rare and unique piece is a black rubber strap with a matching black Jaquet Droz butterfly deployment buckle. Personal Note--Of the diverse range of objects on display, Jaquet Droz's sublime Grande Second Ceramique has the distinction of being the sole representative of ceramic applications in horology. Giving concrete form to the mystery of time is the eternal challenge for a watchmaker. Jaquet Droz meets this challenge with the arrival of the Grande Seconde Ceramic black; scratch proof, inert and produced with exceptional expertise at extreme temperatures, the ceramic of the case symbolizes the values of purity, durability and refinement so dear to Jaquet Droz.This AWESOME timepiece is extremely comfortable in the wrist, light and virtually indestructible The dial is dark to most people but the user can tell the time without any problemMy favorite thing about this particular watch is how "Understated" it shows. Most people like the look of it without comprehending its value, but the watch connoisseur always loves it & knows exactly what you are wearing.... Awesome butterfly deployment buckle....    Comes with its original box & Papers......    Please read carefully:
