The ergonomic 42mm case in stainless steel provides optimal comfort no matter the size of the wearer’s wrist, thanks to its slim profile (9.05mm). The 19Thirty Collection was designed with everyday use in mind. The real sapphire cabochon that is inset into the crown further highlights its elegance.

The movement’s technical excellence and the artistic aspect of the off-center dials come together to showcase an elegant silver or blackened “Côtes de Genève” whose embellishment contrasts with and enhances the intense colors of the guilloché dials.

In addition to clear and easily readable hours and minutes, these timepieces display the seconds at 6 o’clock in a perfect echo of 19th-century pocket watches.

At the 3 o’clock position is the power reserve indicator, highlighting the incredible seven days of power reserve — this timepiece’s incredible energy efficiency is thanks to BOVET 1822’s legendary mastery of chronometry.

In fact, the brand has a history of impressive power reserves — it holds the all-time record via a pocket watch produced at the dawn of the 20th century that had an amazing power reserve of 370 days.

BOVET is able to achieve extraordinary power reserves by using traditional artisanal methods and uncompromising finishes on each and every component. The manufacturing and decoration quality standards for the components are the same as Bovet’s most complicated timepieces. By manufacturing all this timepiece’s components (including the very sensitive tandem balance-spring), BOVET ensures the durable chronometry and reliability that underscore its reputation.

The sapphire glass of the screw-down back lets collectors appreciate every detail of this finely finished manual-wind movement. This exhibition back is also a hallmark from the history of Maison BOVET: the BOVET brothers are famous for inventing the transparent back at the dawn of the 19th century.
