Stepping up in Jean Pierre's range

Price range £99 to £325 across 10 Jean Pierre watches in stock.

A full hunter in the old sense — the case snaps shut over the dial, protecting it entirely when the watch is pocketed. At 50mm across and 12mm deep, it sits with the reassuring solidity of something built to last decades of daily handling rather than occasional use. The 17-jewel spring-wound movement inside is hand-wound, and the blue sunburst dial it drives — Roman numerals, small seconds subdial — shifts from near-black to bright cobalt depending on how the light catches it. A matching Albert T-bar chain and a leatherette pouch come with it, which is how a pocket watch of this kind has traditionally been sold and carried.

Learn more about Jean Pierre

Jean Pierre of Switzerland is a name long carried by British high-street jewellers, sold alongside its sister brand Mount Royal. The range is traditional: gold-cased dress watches, simple dials, quartz and mechanical movements at the affordable end.

Little is published about the company's own history, so this page does not attempt an account of it. The watches are what they appear to be — inexpensive, conventional, and sold through independent shops rather than through the brand itself.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch

Will the glass scratch?

It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.

Does it need a battery?

Quartz, automatic and solar compared

Is it a men's or women's watch?
