2TIMEZONES – A NEW TRAVEL INVITATION FROM JEANRICHARD

In conjunction with the presentation of the new design in the range of sports watches, JEANRICHARD is unveiling the latest - the GMT “2TimeZones”.
This dual time-zone watch is the first model in the sports line to be equipped with the JR1000 movement produced in the JEANRICHARD workshops.

Merging several different genres and shapes, the appearance of this contemporary timepiece is a clever blend of rugged sturdiness and innate elegance. The case with its beautifully sculpted, contrasting lines subtly conceals the movement with its complications, making this watch suitable for wear on any occasion. Indeed, this distinctive and stylised timepiece will shine just as brightly in a luxurious environment as when experiencing some of life’s most intense moments. Combining horological expertise and pure design, this “2TimeZones” model is further proof of the Manufacture-level competence of the JEANRICHARD brand. 

Intended for travellers and people who cultivate contacts around the world, the “2TimeZones” by JEANRICHARD offers a clear and original display of the second time zone. The first time zone indicating local time is shown in a classic way with central hour, minute and seconds hands. Meanwhile, an aperture at 12 o’clock displays the time in the second time zone with an AM/PM indication to avoid any confusion. A second aperture at 6 o’clock shows one of the 24 reference cities for the various time zones.

Two crowns at 3 and 9 o’clock accentuate the originality of this model.
The first, a screw-locked crown, serves to wind the watch, correct the date and set the time. The city indication is modified using the second crown at 9 o’clock. A dedicated mechanism has been developed to make it possible to adjust the hour hand separately from the movement as a whole, simply by pressing the two pushers along the left-hand side of the case. This system can move the hour hand forwards or backwards independently to enable rapid adjustment of the local time zone.

Fitted with a sapphire crystal case-back revealing the mechanical intricacies and the refined decoration of the proprietary movement, this model allows for a choice of sunray-brushed silvered or black dials and is water-resistant to 100 metres.
