Embodying minimalist elegance with its distinctive design, the Jaquet Droz Petite Heure Minute ref. J005004570 boasts a lavishly diamond-set 35mm x 10mm 18kt white gold case that houses its bright silver Mother-of-Pearl stone dial that showcases Jaquet Droz’ meticulous attention to detail and novel approach to watchmaking throughout its construction. This dial features a small subdial at 12 o’clock where its hour and miniutes are displayed through blued hands, with sunburst engraved markings radiating out from it. Powered by the automatic Jaquet Droz cal. 2653 movement, operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour, comprising 57 jewels, and providing an approximate 68-hour power reserve, the Petite Heure Minute is mechanically impressive as one would expect from the storied watchmaker. A white fabric strap with an 18kt white gold pin buckle complements the watch, making it an ideal dress watch. The Petite Heure Minute exemplifies Jaquet Droz' commitment to blending artistic design with technical precision and a unique style of watchmaking that has come to represent the brand and its sense of design and functionality.

The watch is in like-new condition, with only light signs of wear on the white gold case and matching white gold buckle. The leather strap shows minimal wear and remains in excellent condition. The watch comes complete with its original box, papers, and accessories.

Luxuriously set with diamonds all across its 18kt white gold construction and fitted with a unique dial design that is both useful and visually interesting, this Petite Heure Minute showcases why Jaquet Droz is considered one of the best watchmakers within the Swatch Group.
