Boucheron Montre Ronde Seconde Folle Chouette
September 23, 2009
One of the oldest residents of the Place Vandome in Paris whose first boutique there was opened in the distant 1893 – the jewellery and watchmaking company Boucheron – made a triumphant come back to BaselWorld this year showing to the visitors the precious gems of its collection which were previously available only to chosen ones.
Among these gems was jewellery collection of Bestiary Seconde Folle (crazy seconds) timepieces. The collection owes its name to the fact that instead of the traditional seconds hand at the dial there is a rotary disk looking as an eye of one of the three animals from the “bestiary” – chameleon, frog and owl.
The watch is equipped with a custom made Girard-Perregaux movement calibre GP 4000 with seconds disk module at 7 o’clock.
In fact moving eyes are just an ironic animation which accentuates the magnificent jewellery craft of Boucheron which managed to inhabit the 42-mm white gold case a real diamond, emerald and aventurine owl (total number of precious stones – 338).
