Petite Heure Minute Smalta Clara Hummingbird timepiece launches in a limited edition run of eight pieces.

Jaquet Droz has unveiled the new aesthetic of its latest timepiece, whose tourbillon is revealed through geometry.

Now iconic for the brand, its spirit remains unchanged with a large figure “8” formed by an entirely sapphire dial along with indexes and hands in 18K gold suspended above a brushed hours and minutes ring.

With a commitment to continuous improvement in its business and, after reviewing its systems and practices, Jaquet Droz has officially been awarded the RJC Certification following an independent external audit.

Chinese New Year is less than a month away on February 12, and will be celebrated as the Year of the Ox for the first time since 2009.

Nearly 250 years later, the Maison is still headquartered in La Chaux-de-Fonds and says it honored to be carrying on this longtime Sino-Swiss friendship.

The SW is described by Jaquet Droz as an original, sporty and edgy creation and the contemporary of a watchmaker with almost three centuries of history.

While Americans might think of rats swarming through sewers and spreading disease, Chinese associate them with being clever, quick thinkers — successful, but content with living a quiet and peaceful life.

The manufacturer has expanded the new look to include a version with indexes in 18 carat white gold that curve toward the outside of the dial.

The latest Petite Heure Minute Mother-of-Pearl exists in two versions with one featuring a bezel studded with 160 diamonds.
