The extraordinary timepiece represents the entire spectrum of Jaquet Droz craftsmanship. It also carries on the long tradition of automata originally established by Pierre Jaquet-Droz, pushing new technical, creative and artistic boundaries.

Yury Khnychkin, Robb Report Russia editor-in-chief: «This year Best of the Best Global has celebrated its 30th anniversary. Today it is the most recognizable global project Robb Report, symbolic Hall of fame of world luxury industry. Robb Report Russia, though it cannot boast of that long history, has found its own way of celebrating this milestone birthday: this year's special edition for the first time has presented luxury objects from selected Russian producers. However the principles behind the composition of the Best of the Best list remain unchanged: they are based on comprehensive research of the consumer qualities of the upmarket sector goods and services by our competent experts and their personal expertise. I can definitely recommend any of the Best of the Best list items – you will never be disappointed».
