Jaquet Droz 2019: Hands-on the Grande Seconde Dual Time

This year Swatch Group did not attend Baselworld in March. Swatch Group for a good reason decided to leave the world watch and jewelry show and to create an own format how to present its novelties. Today is the 20th of May 2019 and last week I have been spending three days in Switzerland to finally discover the novelties of the luxury brands of Swatch Group. Among them of course Jaquet Droz!

I invite you to discover this new stunning beautiful and full functional dual-time watch.

Jaquet Droz Grande Grande Seconde Dual Time

The 24-hour home time display is split into two distinct 12-hour segments: white for daytime and black for night, making the reading of the home time more immediate and intuitive. The local time, on the top half of the Grande Seconde dial, is regulated by jumping an hour, which makes it quicker to set the time on arrival at the destination. The date adjusts automatically to this change, and is indicated by a red-tipped hand that sweeps around a circular satin-finish applied ring.

Please stay tuned since this sis only one of the first Jaquet Droz videos going online. In the next days I will continue my presentation and show you selected new luxury timepieces of Blancpain, Breguet, Glashütte Original, Harry Winston and Omega.
