Rousseau Gents Tableau Automatic Multi-Function Brown Leather Strap/Green Dial

 Rousseau Gents Tableau Automatic Multi-Function Brown Leather Strap/Green Dial

MSRP: $895.00

This cultivated timepiece from Rousseau exudes a 'worldly' feel with its polished stainless steel case and textured leather band. The dial, itself, displays three separate functions aside from the traditional hour, minute, and second hands. The large date window, day and month subsidiary dials, and even a gradually ticking flywheel, peeking through a special tourbillion-like window, are present as accessories for your timekeeping needs. As an added luxury, the 'Tableau' has been given not only an opulent Côtes de Genève along the bridges and golden rotor inside, it has also been given a polished slip deployment buckle for a more individual fit.

*****Disclaimer: Sample or Customer Returned. Good condition except the leather strap which is little worn out

One of the oldest watches bearing a signature from a Geneva Master Watchmaker lies in the Cluny Museum, Paris, France. The signature is that of Jean Rousseau engraved upon the case of a watch taking the form of Death's Head. In engraving his signature upon such a startling creation, perhaps Rousseau cheated mortality somewhat. Less romantic is the notion that years of making timepieces must have agreed with him, for he lived to be an old man of nearly 80, from 1606 to 1684.

Whether or not one cares to read a mystery into Jean Rousseau's legacy, the truth of the matter is he is quite immortal. Mortality, however, was not cheated. Immortality was earned.

And so, today the Rousseau family of watches carries on as immortal as time itself, as memorable as the genius-family of watchmakers. These timepieces carry the spirit of their namesake with movements as smooth as the heavens with a polished glacial finish, and as sturdy and firm as the mountains surrounding a Swiss village.
