Royale Origine Watch 9010133 CG

The Watch

French watchmaking house Pequignet crafts quality watches with thoughtfully refined design - and this exquisite timepiece is no exception. The Royale Origine Watch 9010133 CG is revealed in silver and brown tones. Its round case is crafted in 316L stainless steel, finely polished to a luminous finish, measuring 42 millimeters in diameter and weighing 46 grams. The minimalist fixed bezel keeps the focus on the distinctive lug design. Both the dial crystal and the bezel are protected by a premium sapphire crystal - renowned for its durability - featuring anti-reflective treatment for an unparalleled reading experience. The transparent caseback shares the same crystal and is secured by 6 polished-head screws. The crown is adorned with Pequignet's iconic fleur-de-lys.

The Dial

The Rue Royale Watch 9010133 CG features an "opaline silver" (white) dial in a classic round shape. It displays hours and minutes via 2 silver hands, and seconds via the small seconds counter at 4 o'clock. At 8 o'clock, a counter shows your watch's power reserve. Pequignet's hallmark attention to detail shines through in the exquisite finishing. The black minute track is punctuated by slender silver baton hour markers, each topped with a refined dot applied with great precision. The 2 central hands feature a subtly raised border edge achieved through high-precision craftsmanship. Made in France - as the 6 o'clock inscription proudly states - this stunning creation is signed by Pequignet in black, accompanied by a small silver fleur-de-lys.

The Movement

This timepiece is brought to life by an automatic movement manufactured in-house by Pequignet - the Calibre Royal, straight from the Pequignet Haute Horlogerie laboratory in Morteau, French Jura. It beats at 21,600 vibrations per hour and houses an impressive 88-hour power reserve, enabling an exceptional isochronism of 72 hours. This caliber delivers precise hours, minutes, and seconds via 2 hands and a small seconds counter, with a dedicated power reserve counter to keep you informed.

The Strap

The Rue Royale Watch is elevated by a strap crafted from large-scale alligator leather in brown. It has been turned and stitched. Its rich brown hue is deep and even, with a slightly glossy finish. The edges are topstitched in a tone-on-tone finish, accented with a hot-edge trim. It fastens with a silver pin buckle, allowing you to adjust the fit to your wrist with ease.

The lug width is 20 millimeters and the taper (width at the buckle) is 18 millimeters. The total strap length is 115/75, giving a size L of 19 centimeters.

Water Resistance

The watch case offers water resistance of 5 ATM (atmospheres), equivalent to 50 meters. This level of water resistance protects against everyday moisture - washing dishes, rain, and the occasional shower - as well as perspiration during sports activities. That said, 5 ATM is not sufficient for prolonged submersion. Relaxing baths, swimming, and diving are off the table. And to protect your alligator leather strap, keep it away from water as much as possible!
