Luxe label Jaquet Droz showcases its detail-oriented and lush rare pocket watch design at the 2018 Baselworld. A one-of-a-kind timepiece, the "scintillating work of art" took more than three years in development and is a worthy testimony of Jaquet Droz's exquisite style and intricate design process. Dubbed the 'Parrot Repeater,' the rare pocket watch combines painting, sculpture, engraving, "grand feu enameling and a completely new technique called grand feu enamel painting."
Jaquet Droz draws inspiration from luxury and nature for the body, as well as the mechanism of its rare pocket watch. The Parrot Repeater does not only boast a lush tropical design with waterfalls and realistically chromatic birds, it also has a stunning and complex mechanical caliber.
