Pierre Cardin Espace with Jaeger Movement
In the late 1960s and early 1970s, Pierre Cardin took the fashion and watch world into the space age with a series of bold, sculptural timepieces. This example is a perfect showcase of that vision, a striking geometric case framing a warm gold-tone dial, powered by a high-quality Swiss Jaeger manual-wind movement.
The brushed, asymmetrical case is pure futurism, with architectural lines that make the dial appear almost floating within the frame. Minimalist square markers and slim hands keep the look clean, while the unusual integrated lug design ensures the watch wears unlike anything else in your collection. A rare fusion of haute couture styling and Swiss horology.
