JEANRICHARD 1681 Central Second Big Case.
Some explanations, first, before discussing this Watch. - 1681: This is the year Daniel JEANRICHARD completed his first Watch, and it is said to be the first Watch in Swizerland! - Central seconds, because a version with small seocnds is available, too. -...
What kind of watch is it meant to be? Dive, Dress, Tool?
Dial, hands and see-through caseback suggest dress? Not an instant like but I think a writshot would give it a chance to redeem itself.
WR to 100 meters, if I am not wrong, but not dive.
For Dive, I have something else to show you, soon. ;) To be seen in the flesh, indeed. I was not impressed, before seing it in the flesh, and the real encounter made me change my mind. Best, and thanks for looking! Nicolas
Lovely blue dial and the hands are superb, this is....
a very nice watch with an unusual case design which I fine very appealing. Need to try it to be convinced about the size though! 44mm "sounds" large;) Sporty, elegant I would describe it. Thank you Nicolas, didn't know that JeanRichard dated from 1681! Wo...
I had to check the size as it wears smaller in the real.
On the wrist, it is definitely convincing... If it didn't have this damn date... ;) Best, Nicolas
Well, very interesting watch indeed and I completely..
agree with you, why on earth "destroying" this otherwise beautiful dial with a date? Especially such a ridiculously small window in the context. Cheers Francois from Down Under
Well! There is date, sweet date and very, very sweet..
and pretty date;) I am not against all of them:) Cheers my friend Francois from Down Under
Unfortunately they would have to re-engineer the ...
... JR1000 movement in order to remove the date. You can't just cover the date with the dial because you have the 3 position crown to deal with. I agree with you and Nico about the small date window on this occasion. Although most of the time I find a dat...
"poor memory"! In my case poor eyesight;) so to see..
a white rectangular speck on such a beautiful dial..... Cheers Francois
This one caught my attention as well
Beautiful case, nice dial and fair movement at a reasonable price. My hesitations are the size of the case and the date, so I must see it in person. It has a lot of charm. The date is not ideal, but not a deal breaker either. So few integrate the date and...
i wouldnt have thought it was your thing Nico.
its ok, but doesnt really hit me. i cant explain why, its just one of those things. the case shape is very like my Lum-Tec and the same size, but still doesnt do it for me i'm afraid. thanks for showing though G

Pretty cool and strong "boy".. Love the intense blue dial and..
.. the kind of Arabic numbers, alternating and clean. - in fact, also the watch appears much smaller than over 40mm, and I guess, the cushion shape, also is a characteristic element Alltogether contributing to a somehow commanding twist.. But a twist, wit...
Some aspects I like, while others I don't....
First, I'm with you Nicolas regarding the date - the dial would be much cleaner with no date complication. (I also happen to be a card carrying member of the anti-date club, but that's another issue) I like the size, color and particularly the fact that t...
Looks good!
You know I have a soft spot for blue dials... Paired here with a brown strap looks looks very nice, IMO. :) Best Blomman
