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 started his masterpieces. He later opened a third workshop in Geneva. Highly recognized, Pierre Jaquet Droz, was touring around the world and being universally applauded for his works of art, both horologically and aesthetically. He was known as the finest craftsman of his days and went on to teaching his techniques to many exceptional watchmakers and craftsmen.Connoisseurs are already familiar with the classic Grande Seconde Hommage Geneve. The Jaquet Droz Manufacture of Haute Horlogerie is now introducing the Grande Seconde Email (White Enamel Dial) on a Beautiful Classic 18K White Gold Case. ---The European enameling art majestically highlights the harmony and balance embodied in the hour and minute subdial subtly adjoined to the large seconds subdial. The figure 8 thus formed, representing a symbol of success in China, is a reminder of the success encountered by the founder Pierre Jaquet Droz in the 18th century, when he delivered his wonderful watch and jeweler to the very heart of the Forbidden City.   The featured watch is Jaquet Droz Grande Seconde in 18kt White Gold case measuring 43mm, Fixed Bezel, It has a Strong Ivory Grand feu Enameled Dial with Black Romain Hours markers and Black Arabic Hours markers with Blue-tone Hands markers. Self Winding movement. Functions: Hours/Minutes/Seconds. Sapphire Crystal, transparent case back revealing the mechanical twin-barrel self-winding movement with a power reserve of more than 68 hours. Black Alligator Strap with Tang clasp, Water resistant 30meter.   Personal Note--What a gorgeous watch! Absolutely Sophisticated, elegant and full of class. It is everything good that could be said about a watch, really. A stand out piece in it's design and functionality, Jaquet Droz produces top quality timepieces that stand head and shoulders above most watches in the world today.The Grande Seconde Dial made the modern Jaquet Droz watch brand famous. Taken from an interesting 18th century pocket watch with a lovely figure eight style dial, the Grande Seconde wristwatch dial was not only visually appealing, but also resonated well with the Chinese consumer who has a penchant for the number "8" --This particular watch is the Quintessential Jaquet Droz, and in my
