The Dragon Automaton by Jaquet Droz
By SENATUS Editor | 27 October 2022

After three years of work, Jaquet Droz and John Howe have developed an Art Watch dedicated to emotion, wonder and fantasy.

The name John Howe is not the most well-known, but most are familiar with his universe and designs: John Howe is the artistic designer for Peter Jackson's "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Hobbit" trilogies. A fantasy prodigy who has lived in Neuchâtel for 30 years, and who is once again in the spotlight with "The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power".

Draped in gold and rare stones, the dragon in the timepiece has a record 9 distinct animations. Inside a 43 mm case, the piece is entirely handmade and can be customized almost without limit, allowing the client to personalize to his/her wishes. In addition, clients will be offered an immersive phygital experience that will allow them to witness the live creation of their timepieces.

There is no series to be announced, only unique pieces.
