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

The double hunter format — two hinged lids, front and back — is the traditional choice when a watch needs to survive a working day in a waistcoat pocket without scratching the crystal or the dial. This one revives that convention in full: the front lid swings open to reveal a white dial carrying Roman numerals, royal blue hands, a second-zone sub-dial, a sun-and-moon day/night indicator, and a skeleton window through which the gear train is visible in motion. It is a great deal to look at, and the blue hands sweeping across it give the eye somewhere to settle. The 17-jewel hand-wound movement inside is the kind found in well-regarded traditional pocket watches — shock-protected, smooth in its action, wound by hand as the format has always required. Both outer lids are plain and polished, which makes them well suited to engraving if the watch is intended as a gift. The matching gold-plated Albert chain is included, so it arrives ready to be worn as a complete set.

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?
