New York`s legendary Time Square has inspired the JEANRICHARD watch brand to create a world first: the Paramount Time Square features an hour display that, instead of the traditional circular turn around the dial, follows the lines of a square. Loyal to its tradition of innovation, the watch brand based in La Chaux-de-Fonds has explored uncharted territory in the field of horological complications. In developing the JR1100, a variation on the famous JR1000 movement, the master-watchmakers from Neuchâtel have turned a whole new corner by setting the hour hand free in an extraordinary and audacious way: it now moves over a square.
As time passes, the three-pointed rotating hour indicator advances along the sides of a square. Each point marks the hours in turn, in a colourful ballet. This surprising trajectory was created using the principle of hypocycloids, and made possible by combining a wheelwork with a set of planetary gears.
