Royale Paris 39.5mm Watch 9100173

The Watch

The Pequignet timepiece is a masterclass in French watchmaking through its Royale Paris model. The round case, crafted from 316L stainless steel, is meticulously polished and satin-finished for a sophisticated luster that resists corrosion and the rigors of daily wear. At 39.5 mm in diameter and 11.5 mm thick, it slips comfortably under any cuff while proudly displaying its refined profile and ideal weight - striking the perfect balance between robustness and comfort. The elegant crown, topped with a "fleur-de-lys" logo, is seamlessly integrated to preserve the pure aesthetic. The domed sapphire crystal, renowned for its scratch resistance, features an anti-reflective coating that enhances dial legibility even under direct sunlight.

The Dial

The dial of the Pequignet Royale Paris is defined by its grained finish in a rich, deep blue, lending it a uniquely refined texture. Subtle indexes and a minute track ensure precise legibility, while the contrast with slender SuperLuminova-coated hands guarantees perfect visibility even in low light. Two additional sub-dials are strategically positioned, offering elegant readouts of the small seconds and the power reserve.

The Movement

At the heart of this timepiece beats the French Calibre Royal automatic movement by Pequignet. It operates at a frequency of 21,600 A/h - or 3 Hz - and delivers an impressive power reserve of 96 hours. The movement is powered by a rotor visible through the transparent caseback. Its precision supports essential functions including hours, minutes, and a small seconds display. A power reserve indicator provides a constant visual readout of remaining energy, eliminating any unwelcome interruptions.

The Strap

The strap of this watch is made from Cordura, a durable, wear-resistant fabric celebrated for its lightness and flexibility. Its deep blue color pairs harmoniously with the dial and case for a flawlessly elegant result. Delicate contrast stitching highlights the attention to detail and adds a subtle character. Fitted with a deployant clasp, it ensures security and comfort when putting it on. A lug width of 20 mm allows for easy adaptation to a variety of styles and outfits, showcasing the strap's boldly modern design.

Water Resistance

With a water resistance rating of 5 ATM, this watch handles the demands of daily life with ease, standing up to light splashes without sacrificing elegance. It's a reliable companion on rainy days or relaxed moments by the pool. The combination of a screw-secured caseback and a solid sapphire crystal reinforces the promise of a watch that is as beautiful as it is built to last.
