Chinese New Year starts with a Yee-Sang toss while chanting positive words such as good health, prosperity, wealth and happiness. We gather with family members and friends for a reunion dinner, to unite and create new memories. The main colours for the Chinese New Year celebrations are red and gold, symbolising good fortune, happiness and wealth. Let’s discover Jackson Yee’s favourite timepiece.
Dominated by a large golden sculpture based on Jaeger-LeCoultre’s new Art Deco-inspired alphabet created by Alex Trochut, the letter ‘M’ signifies the Master Ultra-Thin Tourbillon Moon.
Jackson Yee’s Favourite Timepiece
“The New Year is a time for joyful celebration but also for quiet reflection on the golden moments that we have already experienced and those that we can create in the future,” says Jackson. “To me, this watch has special meaning because the moon governs our Chinese New Year but also because its timeless elegance is like an anchor in a world that seems to be spinning faster all the time. With the change of the year, it symbolises the relationship between reality, time and our dreams for the future.”

Jackson Yee Celebrates The Lunar New Year
The moon-phase and date display symbolises Lunar New Year. The self-winding Calibre 983 is beautifully displayed in a pink gold case and eggshell-white dial. Harmonious and perfectly balanced, the dial is defined by the display of Northern and Southern Hemisphere moon phases in the upper dial and the tourbillon in the lower dial.
The timepiece is encircled by a peripheral date display. Indicated by a red-tipped hand that makes a 90-degree jump over the tourbillon from the 15th to 16th of every month. Underlining the sense of refinement. The shape of the Dauphine hands is echoed by the elongated arrow-shape of the applied pink gold indexes.
With an elegance that transcends the ages, this is a timepiece to treasure over the course of countless new years.
