PEQUIGNET ROYALE PARIS WATCH Blue 9100173

Royale Paris – An Expression of French Watchmaking Art

The Royale Paris is available in a smaller case diameter of 39.5 millimeters and impresses with its exceptionally detailed craftsmanship. Every design element has been harmonized to provide a worthy and fitting setting for the Calibre Royal®, the heart of this model. The watch combines architectural clarity with the characteristic elegance of the Pequignet manufacture.

Case & Design Language

The polished and satin-finished stainless steel case adopts the striking design language of the Royale collection. The applied lugs have been further refined and feature a brushed top surface and polished sides. The angular case profile is accented by a concave, groove-like cut-out that runs all around the dial. Finely sculpted flanks give the watch a balanced geometry, combining strength and style.

A domed, anti-reflective sapphire crystal with Glass-Box coating further emphasizes the elegant silhouette. The screwed-down bezel ensures stability, while the crown with an embossed fleur-de-lis logo represents a subtle, unmistakable manufacture detail. With a case thickness of 11.5 millimeters and water resistance of 5 ATM, the Royale Paris is ideally suited for daily wear.

Dial & Displays

The blue dial is characterized by a strongly grained surface with notches at the edge, which adds depth and texture to the design. The rhodium-plated, embossed logo integrates harmoniously into the overall picture. Beveled hour markers with polished and satin-finished surfaces ensure clear readability and subtle light reflections.

The power reserve indicator is positioned at 8 o'clock, while the small seconds at 3:30 o'clock features a polished and satin-finished rim. Polished steel hour and minute hands are equipped with Super-LumiNova TC1 in blue, guaranteeing optimal readability in all lighting conditions. The polished steel seconds hand and power reserve indicator harmoniously complete the displays. This model deliberately omits a moon phase display, focusing on a clear, balanced design.

The Calibre Royal® – Precision & Innovation

Inside the Royale Paris beats the Calibre Royal®, a movement developed and manufactured entirely in-house with 318 components. It is the first French movement to combine all complications on a single main plate and is protected by eight international patents.

A large mainspring barrel allows for a power reserve of 96 hours. The automatic movement features a bidirectional winding system via an oscillating weight and a large balance wheel with compensation screws and high inertia. With a frequency of 21,600 semi-oscillations per hour and 39 jewels, the movement achieves chronometric precision with a daily rate deviation of –4 to +6 seconds, averaging ±2 seconds per day.

Manufacture & Craftsmanship

The Calibre Royal® is hand-assembled in the Morteau manufacture workshops. All components originate from within an 80-kilometer radius of the manufacture – a clear commitment to regional production and authentic Haute Horlogerie. The case back, secured with six screws, features a sapphire crystal opening that reveals the finely decorated movement with sunray brushing and a rhodium-plated 3N-Lily rotor.

Wearing Comfort & Features

The Royale Paris is equipped with an easy-to-use interchangeable strap system. When purchasing the watch with an alligator leather strap, an additional leather strap is included. The lug width of 20 millimeters and the stainless steel deployant clasp ensure a secure fit and high wearing comfort.

The Royale Collection

The Royale collection was created to put the Calibre Royal® at its heart. It is more than a watch – it is a status symbol for connoisseurs. The models in the collection are destined to be worn and admired, representing a distinctive French concept of time, freedom, and elegance.
