Baselworld 2014 LIVE look at JEANRICHARD watches

Jean Richard has changed a lot since the takeover by the group that owns Gucci.  Rather than a mess of different functions, case shapes and motifs accumulated over decades, we now have one case shape whose modular construction allows for multi variant finishes.
The Land, Sea and Air are represented and each family has a few top models to add spice to the bread and butter watches.
Target price range is CHF 2000 - 5000 realistically with a few specials.

Drop a JR manufacture movement into a true diver without a date function, and I think I would be sold. Lover the color combinations and the "look" of these timepieces. They seem to improve each year, but have a bit more to go in my view. Thanks for the post. Darren
