The elegant 42-mm  case is elevated by its lug design, curved and gracious, which turns  Palatial Big Date into an everyday-wear timepiece.

The large date and power reserve indication are  sitting on top of a finely executed movement, chosen for its  reliability. Developed in a hand-wound version, it does away with  self-winding in order to shave off a precious few millimeters. This  slimness is reflected in the overall design of Palatial Classic Big  Date. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnder the sapphire glass, the hard stone dials of Palatial  Classic Big Date are a delicate ornament. Selection of the Malachite,  Onyx and Lapis Lazuli blocks only retains the very best ones, with the  most intense colors and zero defect. Cutting them into slabs of extreme  thinness and piercing them to receive the dial's hour markers and  complication fixtures requires a special and rare know-how. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe complications \u0026amp; features \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCaliber JCAM52 offers a classic combination of  complications, aiming at being both symmetrical and effectively useful  on a daily basis.

One is dedicated to the tens, the other to the units. Once properly  coordinated, they work in unison to display the date in a larger window,  in a large font, resulting in optimal readability. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe power reserve indicator \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA hand-wound movement requires a little upkeep : it has  to be wound before its power reserve is fully exhausted.
