Ronde Ellipse Anniversaire
Celebrating a 150-year-long tradition of intensely creative endeavour prompted Boucheron to reinvigorate its fine
watch-making flair and elevate it beyond time and on to eternity with a special edition of 26 pieces, address of its
flagship, 26, Place Vendôme. This new stylish and graceful, round and creation is available in white gold and has
a single passion and aim: perfection. Its originality-steeped outer beauty conceals the best that watch-making art
has to offer: an entirely hand-made atelier calibre.
The first thing that catches the eye is probably the sheer visual power that radiates from the elliptical setting,
harnessing the evocative wealth that the range of blues. These rare gems are all different sizes and set to create
visual volume alongside the purest diamonds. The real talent of this maison's master jewellers is in the harmony
that their artful stone-setting elicits. The galaxy of precious coloured stones magically rises above the law of
gravitation. Springing from the golden dial in the middle of the case, this coloured nebula is reflected in the
pumiced shagreen strap that captures the slightest trace of light. These watches stir time with impulse – the
visible sign of an inner desire to advance.
In keeping with Voltaire's contention that the sky is the see of the Watchmaker of the Universe, Boucheron found
it fitting to unveil what human talent has enabled it to tender nestled a golden crib. The oval window opening into
the back unveils a few of the atelier-made GP 4000 calibre's completely restyled components including the mark
of the maker, the first maison to open on Place Vendôme.
