Jaquet Droz Grande Seconde 43 Ivory Enamel J003033204

Eight is Jaquet Droz's lucky number, and the layout goes back to a pocket watch Pierre Jaquet-Droz made in 1784; the brand revived the Grande Seconde in a new collection in 2002. Here the ivory enamel dial sits in a 43 mm red gold case 11.48 mm thick.

The Grande Seconde 43 Ivory Enamel in white gold (J003034201) is the same watch in white gold. The Grande Seconde Décentrée, or Off-Centered, in red gold (J006033200) shares the case metal and ivory enamel but shifts the seconds dial off-centre, towards 7 o'clock. At 39 mm, the Grande Seconde 39 Black Enamel (J014013200) is a smaller red gold version with a black enamel dial. Other 43 mm red gold versions trade the enamel for onyx (J003033342), meteorite (J003033339) or a Côtes de Genève finish (J003033338).
