Dress watches are generally meant to be simple, unadorned affairs. 

However…

We’ll make an exception for anything from Breguet, whose timepieces embody the exquisite workmanship of its 18th/19th-century namesake. And like the watches of Breguet, those of Urban Jurgensen have their origins in the same time period, thus exhibiting similar characteristics such as guilloché, blued steel hands, and Roman numerals.

This particular Urban Jurgensen dress watch is a very special timepiece indeed, with a patented chronometer escapement. Housed in a 40mm 18K rose gold case with teardrop lugs, a sapphire crystal, a rose gold crown, and a polished, stepped bezel, it features a beautiful, satin silver guilloché dial with painted black ‘Roman’ indices, a blued steel ‘observatory’ handset, an outer ‘railroad’ minute track, and a power reserve indicator below 12 o’clock.

Powered by the highly finished, manually wound Urban Jurgensen Calibre P8 with detent escapement, it comes paired to a signed, brown alligator leather strap with a signed, 18K rose gold pin buckle. Dating to 2022, it also includes its factory goodies.

As the market for steel sports watches continues to balloon, why not turn your eye to something timeless and exquisite, such as this one. We would certainly support you!
