Jaquet Droz Loving Butterfly Automaton Chinchilla Red
I love petrified wood. Chincilla Red petrified wood is used in art, furniture and watches. A master of stone dials, Jaquet Droz has utilized petrified wood as a backdrop for its latest limited edition of the Loving Butterfly Automation, adding a natural flair. I love Jaquet Droz's watches.

The Charming Bird
Jaquet Droz's Charming Bird is a modern interpretation of an early automation singing bird. It is manufactured using micro mechanics, watchmaking skills, and modern materials to achieve the miniaturization of what were previously larger and static machines made in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. This fantastic watch was developed over a three year period; the first prototype was finished in 2013, and the first watches launched into the market in 2014. Take a look.
