Jean Richard debuted the Paramount Time Square which features the world's first "square hour".  Instead of the traditional center hours hand, the Paramount Time Square features a 3-pointed red, black, and blue hour arrow which rotates and advances along the sides of a square.  So the time in the below picture would be 1:15.

 Next piece is the Jean Richard "Brutale" Chronoscope which is a watch dedicated to the close partnership between Jean Richard and the MV Agusta motorcycles.  This new 43mm steel case houses the JR1030 automatic movement and is clothed in rubber with titanium bezel, crown, and chrono pushers.  As a tribute to the 1078cc engine capacity in the MV Agusta Brutale motorcycle, this steel/rubber Brutale Chonoscope will be made in a limited edition of 1078 pieces.

290 km/hr is the top speed of the MV Agusta Brutale motorycle, so the rose gold/rubber version will be made in a limited edition of 290 pieces

Jean Richard formed a partnership with the legendary football club Juventus Football Club in 2003, and this year's Juventus watch uses the 43mm Bressel case.  The official name of this piece is the Bressel Classic Chronograph Model for "Juventus".  Case is a black PVD, and the dial has the Juventus logo in the center which is luminescent in the dark.  And for those wondering, this Juventus watch is a regular production piece. 

 
The Juventus watch is adorned with yellow and white which are the team's colors

 
The Juventus ovoid logo (in center of dial) is in luminscent black material

The "square hour" is a cool feature, and the Brutale Chronograph is a very aesthetically pleasing designed sports watch.  All in all, a decent year for Jean Richard. 

Cheers,
