Eight appeared on the off-center dial of the iconic Grande Seconde watch, the first models which were created in the distant 1780s: the infinity symbol formed two circles - hour and minute counters, combining Arabic and Roman numerals. These watches were the epitome of avant-garde aesthetics of Jaquet Droz.
