BOVET has captivated collectors for over two centuries with ornate timepieces that fuse old-world artistry with cutting-edge innovation. Now, the Swiss watchmaker embarks on a thrilling new adventure with its first-ever bracelet watch: the Récital 12.
The timepiece represents over two years of research and development, as BOVET sought to meet client demand for an elegant yet durable everyday watch. The result is a seamless marriage of comfort, versatility and high horology.
Crafted from lightweight grade 5 titanium, the 40mm case and bracelet offer strength and corrosion resistance while remaining feather-light. The ingenious folding clasp allows up to 3mm of adjustment for a perfect custom fit. Visually, the combination of polished and brushed finishes creates alluring contrasts, while the iconic BOVET “V” integrated into the clasp forms an infinity symbol when closed.
Despite its understated exterior, the Récital 12 harbors impressive technical feats within. Its all-new manual-wind movement boasts an inverted baseplate that enables a slimmer profile, while still flaunting BOVET’s impeccable hand-finishing. Seven days of power reserve highlight the movement’s prowess.
The arched bridge prominently displays “BOVET” in an artistic flourish, while the offset dial below captivates with a guilloché “Lotus Flower” motif. Blued hands glide over this canvas, driven by the openworked movement visible through the dial. Here, the mesmerizing in-house balance wheel takes center stage.
With the Récital 12, BOVET has once again affirmed its pioneering spirit. This versatile timepiece opens an exciting new chapter, as BOVET’s rich heritage seamlessly converges with its future. Forging ahead boldly, yet never compromising artistry or innovation, BOVET remains a guiding light in the watch world.
