Chaumet Power Reserve White Gold 12A
Chaumet Dress Watch Ref. 12A – 18K White Gold with Power Reserve, Automatic
This Chaumet Dress Watch Ref. 12A is an elegant example of Parisian refinement from the 1990s, housed in a substantial 36 mm case crafted entirely from 18K white gold. Featuring a clean silver dial with a power reserve indicator at 6 o’clock, it balances functional charm with discreet luxury.
The case, complemented by a solid white-gold crown and sapphire crystal, presents beautifully on the wrist. Light hairline scratches are present, but these only enhance the vintage appeal — honest marks of a piece that has been enjoyed and carefully preserved for over three decades. The slim blued-steel obelisk hands provide a striking contrast against the dial, while the power reserve indicator adds a touch of mechanical intrigue.
Inside beats the reliable self-winding ETA 2892-2 caliber, renowned for its precision and slim profile, elevated by Chaumet’s fine finishing. The watch is paired with its original Chaumet alligator strap and matching 18K white gold buckle, underscoring its completeness and authenticity.
Sophisticated and understated, this Chaumet is perfect for collectors seeking something beyond the mainstream—an uncommon white-gold complication from one of Paris’s most storied maisons. Its generous 36 mm case size ensures contemporary wearability, while its timeless design makes it a versatile dress watch for both formal and refined casual settings.
