The clearly visible movement is encased within a black ceramic case that has a diameter of 41.5 mm. A “NAC” coating provides the case with a masculine look and feel and sapphire glass is used for the top and case back to create a “glass box.” While the Jaquet Droz 2663 SQ, self-winding skeleton mechanical movement provides a power reserve of 68 hours.Screws in blue steel are used in fixing the stainless steel hour circle and the sapphire dial helps showcase the company’s watchmaking expertise.
