THE CHARMING BIRD BY JAQUET DROZ

Published on Apr 24, 2013 Jaquet Droz·33 videos

"Jaquet Droz is very proud to introduce you to a revolutionary time piece on the occasion of the Baselword fair: The Charming Brid. The Charming Bird is the first singing bird automata wristwatch ever.

In line with this long tradition and to celebrate its 275th anniversary, the Charming Bird is the fourth installment of a watchmaking saga that began in 2010 with the introduction of miniature painting, followed by engraving and sculpture in 2011. Finally, the songbird celebrates the brand's DNA by reviving the techniques of the automaton and the miniature.

By combining them with the artistic skills of the Ateliers d'Art, it pays tribute to the continuity of the exceptional expertise perpetuated by Jaquet Droz."
