JAQUET DROZ CELEBRATES YEAR OF GOAT

Jaquet Droz brand decided to celebrate Chinese New Year of Goat, presenting two new Ateliers d'Art watches...

This very delicate technique requires that artists first drill the metal to the desired design and then fill seats for minute with enamel, which is veneered and lacquered by hand.

These exclusive watches are available in versions of 18-carat red or white gold for housing, which measures 41 mm in diameter and are water resistant to 33 meters. Their mechanism is identical Jaquet Droz Swiss automatic caliber 2653 with 28 jewels, 28,800 vph frequency and power reserve of 68 hours.
