Replica At Best Price Swiss 7750 Valjoux Introducing The Bovet Virtuoso VII Retrograde Perpetual Calendar

Four watches for the price of one? Now that’s a bargain no watch collector is going to turn down. The easiest way to double a timepiece of course is by changing its strap, and brands have certainly been designing more watches that offer this option. The other option is getting a pocket watch that also functions as a wristwatch. Much fewer brands have that option, even though some, such as Urwerk, have been contacted directly by clients to build it for them. If it is becoming clearer, this trend owes a lot to Bovet. Since 2010, the Swiss watch brand has been transforming its timepieces from wristwatch to pocket watch thanks to the Amadeo® convertible case system.
A pioneer in the watch industry, Bovet has inspired a number of independent brands to do the same. In fact, Bomberg has built its entire brand around it, although its own system works differently, and its watches have a lower price point. Bovet’s timepieces present much nobler lines. Despite being still relatively new, the technology has been applied expertly so that the timepiece feels modern when worn on the wrist, and straight out of the 18th century when worn as a pocket watch.
If the system works seamlessly, the watches that use it are growing in complexity. Earlier today, Bovet presented the Virtuoso VII Retrograde Perpetual Calendar, one of the most complicated watch to use the Amadeo® case. Designed around the Virtuoso II Specialty Caliber, it features day, date, month and leap year cycle, on two distinct watch faces. Why two? Well there’s a lot of information to display, and that has always proven to be tricky.
So instead of packing all of it to one side of the dial, Bovet has made each indication star in its own scene through separate apertures. The two faces of the watch present various degrees of complexity, and seem suited for different occasions.
When you invest in a timepiece of this ilk you should truly be investing in some intense or even obsessive attention to detail.The movement itself is wound and has a power reserve of five days – operating at 3Hz (21,600 bph). Its design may not be to everyone’s tastes (like I mentioned, Bovet is not going for that), but it’s damn impressive, and I think just about any watch lover would feel fortunate to have one of them in their collection.Bovet proceeds to come out with intriguing and massively complicated watches like the Bovet Recital 18 Shooting Star on an annual basis. Few if some brands push so hard – even in uncertain times – to maintain creating amazing and cool stuff. Even though you may not enjoy all of it, you need to give Bovet charge for keeping things fresh and interesting frequently. There’s also an 18k red gold version of this Bovet Recital 18 Shooting Star which will be produced this year. In addition to the different case material, there’s the white lacquered dial option as well as a blue aventurine dial up (where the time is indicated) option. The Bovet Recital 18 Shooting Star can also be 18.15mm thick (given the large domed crystal – which, incidentally, has excellent AR-coating for its shape), and is water resistant to 30 meters.Bovet claims that for 2016, 50 bits of the “limited edition” Bovet Recital 18 Shooting Star is going to be generated. This opens the door for more variations of it in the future decades. I am pretty sure Bovet will also find a means of putting diamonds with this – as appears to be the preference for lots of their customers.
The first face of the Virtuoso VII displays the hours, minutes, seconds and power reserve, as well as the indications relative to the perpetual calendar. It showcases the brand’s expertise and the work of its artisans.
The second face presents less information. Instead, the movement is king. An off-centered dial, presenting hours and minutes at 12 o’clock, makes way for the Virtuoso II Specialty Caliber, beautifully finished with circular Côtes de Genève. The Virtuoso VII Retrograde Perpetual Calendar is available in white gold for $ 82,800 or in red gold for $79,000.00, with or without diamonds.
