L'Origine Email Ivoire

L’origine Email

Drawing extensively from the rich Jaquet Droz heritage, L’Origine Email belongs to the Hommage Londres 1774 Collection. This masterpiece is not only a statement in technical perfection, but it is also integral to the identity of the Manufacture. This jewel of modern craftsmanship, rooted in three centuries of history, features Grand Feu enamelling with its unique grain and perfectly homogeneous colour. This technique is a keystone of the Jaquet Droz culture, whose master enamellers jealously guard the secrets of the powders’ fineness and the strength of the flame used to make these exceptional dials.

One can trace the traditions of a proud past in the classical lines: noble Roman numerals and generous curves of this 43 mm steel watch, a pleasure to look at and a pleasure to touch. Timeless and unequivocally modern in the purity of its graphic design, it stands today and for the future as a style reference. L’Origine Email would never have come to exist without the superior craftsmanship of the artisans at the Manufacture.

Available in two versions – ivory or black Grand Feu enamelling – each in a Numerus Clausus of 88, L’Origine Email expresses the very essence of Beauty and Taste, with a number of subtle references to the Enlightenment in the 18th century. The connoisseur will take great pleasure in owning such a magically timeless and classical time-keeper.
