Magic of nature on Jaquet Droz dial

The magnificent new collection of Jaquet Droz watches promise to amaze watch lovers at Damas, leading retailer of stylish watches and jewellery in the Middle East, due to their stupefying heritage of mechanical figures, presented first to King Louis XVI and Marie-Antoinette, Queen of France.

This fabulous history continues to inspire the manufacture's ingenious craftsmen in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland.

To win the connoisseur's confidence, Jaquet Droz mobilises all of its technical and creative forces, starting with the self-winding mechanical movement, the smooth-polished steel case finished by hand, the cambered crystal and the engraved crown.

It is as if, in making these watches, the craftsmen at Jaquet Droz had but a single obsession: to combine the magic of nature with the hope engendered by the rebirth of each month. These beauties echo the words of Aristotle, uttered over 2,000 years ago: 'Hope is a waking dream'.

Tawhid Abdullah, Managing Director of Damas, said: “Since the 18th century, the magnificent creations of Jaquet Droz have figured as consummate expressions of watchmaker's art.

Its founder Pierre Jaquet Droz amazed the courts of Europe with his stupefying mechanical figures and presented his timepieces to royalty.

The latest collection has achieved harmonious perfection with exceptional mechanisms inside. Through the beauty of the new models and the intense emotions they procure, expressed through their limited edition timepieces, Jaquet Droz powerfully proclaims its love and respect for watchmaking as well as for its clientele.”
