This Jaquet Droz Lady 8 is a standout timepiece that elegantly evokes the grace and glamour of feminine style with its dazzling diamonds and unique shape.
Why we love it
Jaquet Droz’s lucky number 8 takes an elegant form for the Maison’s Lady 8 collection. It’s a collection where design and aesthetics take centre stage, with Droz’s celebrated mechanical prowess subtly ministering precision and reliability for a complete and magical horological experience.
Ref. J014500241 is a timepiece that’s truly feminine and graceful. From the colour palette to the distinct details, everything on the watch speaks of style and luxury. The 35mm case is crafted from stainless steel into the shape of number 8. It is enriched with a fine, polished finish throughout, featuring graduating diamonds on the upper segment of the bezel that outlines a notable white cabochon bead. On the homogenous white ceramic dial, we are greeted by an understated design featuring two hands, a chapter ring marking hours and minutes, and the brand label.
Turning the watch over reveals the well-crafted and finished mechanical movement through the sapphire crystal case back. The self-winding mechanism – calibre 1153 – has 28 jewels, a beautifully-executed rotor, and 68 hours of power reserve. Lastly, for a balanced look, this pretty women’s watch comes paired with a matching white leather strap.
This Jaquet Droz Lady 8 J014500241 is in very good pre-owned condition with minor scratches on the case back, bezel and clasp. Please note that the leather strap is well-maintained, boasting a good shape.
Provenance
At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
Please note all our transactions with sellers are conducted via registered banking channels, accompanied by a signed affidavit, banking proof, and PAN card.
A specific affidavit stating the watch is not a stolen property and that all applicable duties have been paid is also obtained from the seller and is available for buyers in case of legal requirements.
We strive to build trust through transparency and diligence, outlining our verification process and the inherent limitations. Our commitment to integrity shapes every transaction, prioritising your confidence while acknowledging the realities of the pre-owned watch market.
