Jaquet Droz Eclipse Onyx in Steel

Posted on by

Jaquet Droz presents the new Eclipse Onyx steel model with the moon phase complication and a dial cut from a disc of black onyx. The magical color of the stone provides a marvelous foil for the bright rhodium-plated metal of the eight stars and the moon, whose vintage-style design remains unchanged.

Also cut from black onyx, the index reinforces this striking contrast and takes the game of hide-and-seek to a whole new level in its high-precision interaction with the smiling moon face. The Eclipse Onyx features streamlined hours and minutes hands, the graphic yet sensuous curves of the date hand topped with a silvery crescent moon, and apertures displaying the day and month appearing in white against a black background.
