For Only Watch '09, Jaquet Droz has created a one-of-a-kind timepiece.It features a white ceramic case and red enamel dial."An ivory colored enamel dial needs about ten layers to achieve the right color, with each layer being fired at 800°. Black Corum 396-250-20-0F03FB30R Men's watch needs 15 layers and 15 firings, and blue 18 or 19, but red needs an amazing 22 layers. So every time you add a layer you add another complication. Each time it is fired you add another risk of breakage and another risk of bubbling. "Jaquet Droz CEO, Manuel Emch says, "it took us 6 years to find a way to stabilize the red color. "
The red reacts differently to the firing and causes a lot of breakage.This is the first time JD has created a completely red dial and probably their last.The unique Jaquet Droz Only Watch 09 (The grande seconde ceramique, hommage Geneve 1784), Ref J003036207.Inside is a JD 2663 caliber self-winding mechanical movement, with a double Corum 396-250-20-0F01FM30R Men's watch barrel power reserve and a 22k white gold oscillating weight.The movement runs at 28,800 vph, has 30 jewels and an extended power-reserve of 68 hours (courtesy of double barrels).
