Precious Lapidary
REFLET XL AVENTURINE & FALCON’S EYE: Mythical Material
Known for its unrelenting quest to ennoble materials with the craftsmanship of using original and unusual combinations of stone, wood and metal, Boucheron prides itself on discovering original ways to craft elegant and refined objets d’art. These creations speak to connoisseurs who appreciate the unique talents and vision it takes to dare to be different.
The Reflet watch was first introduced in 1947 when its sleek linear look, pioneering interchangeable strap and hidden clasp made it an instant classic. Launched in celebration of the House’s 150th anniversary in 2008, the 45mm Reflet XL is the perfect canvas on which the brand can experiment with unexpected materials and innovative designs. The first edition was the Reflet XL Cruise using the luxurious woods from yachts followed by the Reflet XL Château Latour in 2010 with a dial made out of the casks of the 2005 vintage of this exceptional wine. These surprising materials add an innovative dimension to the streamlined form of the Reflet XL. Thus giving a level of sophistication to the watch face that equals that of the Girard-Perregaux GP 4000 manufactured automatic movement that lies beneath it.
Boucheron’s iconic Reflet XL watch collection is enhanced this year with two striking original dials taking a new direction in creativity by using either Aventurine glass or Falcon’s Eye stone to craft two distinctive watch faces.
The Aventurine glass comes from the famed Murano glass factories of Venice and is produced using ancestral techniques perfected over generations. This glass is able to replicate the shimmering beauty of a galaxy of celestial bodies shining bright in the dark night sky.
The graphic beauty of the Falcon’s Eye stone make it a perfect backdrop for the Reflet XL watch. Meticulously chosen for its particular graphically streaked color combination and architectural composition, it cleverly echoes the vertical line carved into the watch case. The stones’ subtly masculine shades of dark blues, faded greens and grays nicely accent the traditional hour indicators on the watch dial. Known as a stone purported to bring good luck to the wearer, this elegant watch will surely give its owner a boost of confidence so that he can create his own luck.
Reflet XL watch in steel with a Falcon's eye stone dial and automatic GP4000 movement. Available with a choice of two watch straps.
Timeless objects where material is sublimated and the precisions of the watchmaker become the essence of their creation. They are icons of the House whose classic and sculpted style make them true timepieces in the grand tradition of Boucheron.
