Platinum, pink gold and jade stone – elegance and refinement at its best. The hour is indicated through a window at 12 o’clock, while the minutes are displayed on a sub-dial at 6 o’clock.

This is a version of the Jumping Hours with a one-off dial of black jade stone, cut to 0.40mm thick. Chapter ring, in printed pink gold, as is the brand logo above the hour window.

ANDERSEN Genève is presenting an exceptional version of the acclaimed Jumping Hours, launched in 2020 to celebrate the brand’s 40th anniversary.

This time the Jumping Hours combines a platinum case, plus pink gold crown, with a unique dial of pure jade stone, delicately cut to a thickness of just 0.4mm and worked to a perfectly flat, flawless finish. This requires incredible skill to create without breaking it: at its thinnest point, where the hour wheel is recessed beneath it, the dial is just 0.15mm thick.

The effect is bewitching. Seen from afar, the dial seems a deep, alluring black, forming a rich contrast with the minutes hand, chapter ring and brand logo in powdered pink gold. Close inspection, however, reveals the veins and details running through the jade – the unique qualities of the stone. It is a watch that showcases both the minimalistic elegance and the high craftsmanship of the Jumping Hours, in the most luxurious and alluring way.
