Among dressy chronographs, surely one of the most eye-catchingly beautiful made today is the Jaquet Droz Chrono Monopoussoir watch. Isn’t it amazing what eliminating those chronograph buttons can do for the profile of a watch? By utilizing a sophisticated single-push chronograph mechanism which is co-axial with the crown, Jaquet Droz has created a chronograph which has all the normal functions, but retains a wonderfully clean profile.
Monopush chronographs are quite a rarity, and this Jaquet Droz watch is stunning even among this elite list. The dial arrangement is extraordinary and very unique with its off-centered hour and minute displays. The stunning fire-roasted blue steel hands are another spectacular point of mention, and are as fine an example of this technique as may be found anywhere in the world today.
Choosing from the extraordinary range of exotic dials that Jaquet Droz offers for the Chrono Monopoussoir watch is probably the greatest challenge facing a prospective owner. Traditional Grand Feu enamel? So traditional, classic and pure. How about a stunning mineral dial like meteorite or spectralite? Incredible, and unique. Of course, to be faced with such a choice is a wonderful thing–regardless of your choice, you can be assured that you have selected one of the finest and most distinctive luxury chronographs in the world.Â
