Mauboussin L’Heure de Paix – Automatic – Silver Dial – 100M – Original Steel Bracelet – 2000-2009 An elegant and distinctive Mauboussin L’Heure de Paix automatic wristwatch, combining French luxury design with Swiss mechanical watchmaking. The watch features a sophisticated silver dial with multiple textures: a sunburst-finished central section surrounded by a vertically patterned chapter ring. Applied silver-tone hour markers and broad hands create a refined monochromatic appearance, contrasted by the elegant blue central seconds hand. One of the most distinctive details is the unusual curved date display at 3 o’clock, showing three consecutive numerals with the current date indicated at the centre — a design element that gives the watch a strong individual identity. The sculpted stainless steel case is framed by a multi-ring stepped bezel, while the exhibition case back reveals the automatic mechanical movement.

Story & Heritage Founded in Paris in 1827, Mauboussin is a historic French luxury house best known for its fine jewellery and distinctive approach to design. Over time, the maison expanded its creative universe into watchmaking, bringing the same emphasis on sculptural forms, refined details and individual character to its timepieces. The L’Heure de Paix reflects this jewellery-inspired approach particularly well. Rather than following the conventional codes of a traditional round watch, the design plays with concentric surfaces, textures and proportions. The unusual date display and blue seconds hand add further personality to the otherwise restrained silver composition. The transparent case back introduces another dimension to the watch, allowing the wearer to observe the automatic mechanical movement and reinforcing the connection between decorative French design and traditional mechanical watchmaking. With its substantial stainless steel construction, original bracelet, automatic movement and distinctive Mauboussin aesthetic, the L’Heure de Paix is an interesting choice for collectors looking beyond the most conventional Swiss watch brands.
