It’s a new world for the men’s Dual Time

Introducing a supremely modern and original design, the timepiece collection features a model with a bold blue face emphasized by a geometric rope motif, tying the watch to its nautical roots. The feeling of tradition is sharply juxtaposed by spike-styled indexes marking the hours; these unique elements are so “present” that they seem to call out the numbers on the dial.

Now, this incredible timepiece returns equipped with an automatic movement that has been developed, designed and manufactured entirely in-house: caliber UN-334. Endowed with a Big Date double window display, also adjustable in both directions, it boasts a silicon escapement, the height of watchmaking technology that very few brands are able to master.

Behind this simplicity of use – a true lesson in functionality – the Manufacture caliber UN-334 deploys the results of many years of research. Featuring a 48-hour power reserve, it is equipped with a silicon anchor, escape wheel and roller. The 4 Hz oscillator also has a patented 1.1.1. silicon balance spring, guaranteeing impressive accuracy.

Having made its watchmaking dйbut a little over 10 years ago thanks to the pioneering efforts of Ulysse Nardin, this highly contemporary material requires hardly any lubrication and resists wear more than any other. Complex to work with, its manufacturing techniques remain the prerogative of just a handful of watchmakers. The selfwinding movement, a technological gem, is showcased through a sapphire case-back.

On the opposite end of the spectrum is an ultra-classic timekeeper. Engaging in its quiet beauty, it showcases a warm ivory dial and a simple, linear Roman numeral XII and hour markers outlined in gold.

Independence through innovation: the Ulysse Nardin Manufacture constantly pursues the steep but extraordinarily worthwhile path it chose to take a few years ago. Offering hours, minutes, oversized small seconds at 6 o’clock, a big date double window display and second time zone functions, the Dual Time Manufacture is without doubt one of the easiest watches to read and adjust on the market. While the “home time” indicator advances steadily over 24 hours in an aperture at 9 o’clock, the small hand can easily be aligned with local time, either forward or backward.

 This is achieved simply by pressing the (+) or (-) pushers positioned at 10 o'clock and 8 o’clock, without having to remove the watch from the wrist or interrupting its timekeeping. The ultimate in mechanical refinement, the calendar function automatically synchronizes with adjustments made in either direction.

These two additions to the Dual Time portfolio provide the traditionalists and contemporaries, alike, an option just right for them.

JEANRICHARD – Blue Terrascope Automatic













JEANRICHARD – Blue Terrascope Automatic NEW

A match made in Blue

JEANRICHARD is all about discovering new horizons, perspectives and is made for exceptional personalities. Now, the JEANRICHARD women and men can embark on new adventures together with the new sophisticated blue Terrascope. After launching a 39 mm edition just at the beginning of 2015, for Baselworld, the Swiss luxury watch manufacturer presents the 44 mm blue companion. The opportunities are now truly endless; to ascertain new lands and cultures with a timepiece that stands for independence and exploration – and now even in a matching look.

The new blue Terrascope dial animation is a watch that comprises an innovation never seen before at JEANRICHARD – a three-dimensional look to this animated textured dial. The dial has been processed in a special technique – the engraved surface is obtained via a unique manufacturing process whereby a desired shape arises using electrical sparks. The material of the dial is lacquered brass.

In combination with the blue Terrascope in 39 mm and now also newly in 44 mm, these two versatile models are an impeccable pair. Shaped in the signature modern Terrascope silhouette, these watches feature a polished and vertically satin-finished stainless steel case and are equipped with a blue dial with rhodium-coated suspended indexes and a seconds index in red.

The larger model comes with a blue rubber strap that has thin striated bands and the signature JR logo – the 39 mm model is available with a double-sided reversible rubber strap featuring on one side the signature JEANRICHARD look and on the other side the “Rubbergator”. This new timepiece alternatively also comes with an ostrich strap and has like all models, a folding buckle providing extra comfort.

The remaining features of the Terrascope are an icon: The everlasting signature design has an immaculately finished JR60 movement that is self-wound and on the 39 mm model also a sapphire-crystal case back that allows the observation of the inner details and craftsmanship.
