Pequignet Royale Paris Owner Review : Elegant, eternal and symbolic

This watch is a true masterpiece of French watchmaking! The Royal caliber, (almost) 100% designed and manufactured in France, is not only beautiful to behold, but offers an official 96-hour power reserve, though mine easily exceeds 100 hours. Comfortable on the wrist, with an incredible dial boasting exquisite finishing, it's much more than just a timepiece: it's a watch that tells a story, and not just any story: the story of French passion and excellence. Its dial amazes me every time I look at it; it exudes a natural elegance that doesn't try too hard. Just the right touch. Perfectly proportioned curves, neither too large nor too thick, everything is crafted with finesse, from the hands to the complications. The moon phase adds a touch of poetry to this timepiece. Although its representation is based on realistic photographs from NASA, it doesn't prevent us from dreaming and proves that mechanics, too, can be poetry. It's a fragment of the universe captured on the wrist, a silent dialogue between man, the moon, and time. Every detail exudes French craftsmanship and pride, from the dial design to the softness of the strap, to the precision of the movement. Wearing it on your wrist is to feel an intimate connection with time. It's a watch I bought for myself for my 30th birthday, so it had to convey something special. It's an emotion, a presence, a daily companion that reminds us that beauty also lies in precision and patience. I'm intentionally not showing you photos of the movement because it has a specific serial number that I wish to keep private, but I encourage you to look at the photos from other members of the platform or on the Pequignet website because it's truly beautiful to behold. My word for it: elegance! But any watch, French elegance. Savoring every moment while wearing this timepiece is to display your passion with a touch of pride. Thank you, Pequignet, for this marvel that makes the heart beat as fast as the seconds.
