Paul Picot Technograph Discotime Watch


Pretty impressive putting the word "disco" in a watch name. Though it is not the first time that Paul Picot has done so. Paul Picot backs up the "discotime" name with colorful accents purportedly meant to remind you of being in a night club. Though I think it has been a while since I've seen a menage of primary color spot lights at the "discotech" Your red, yellow, and blue colors are laid out in an attractive watch that reminds me of a more "in your face" classic Zenith Rainbow Flyback watch in terms of the color theme. The overall look of the Technograph Discotime is very attractive with a smaller actual watch face being flanked by rotating disc based chronograph subdials. The dial in whole is only used for the chronograph seconds, while there is an "open" date window. Technograph and Discotime are terms that are likely meant to make you think of dance music. Maybe this watch is a perfect timepiece for the successful DJ.

The case is in steel and 44mm wide - water resistant to 100 meters. You have a modified Valjoux 7750 automatic movement inside. There is also a fair amount of texturing on the dial and I like the applied hour markers on the actual watch face, which while a bit small, is legible. Overall an attractive watch that I feel can be adeptly dressed up or dressed down. Paul Picot watch have always been on the more quirky side of luxury style, but are certainly adept timepieces. Price will be 8,900 Swiss Francs.
