DESCRIPTION

  • Reflet An Iconic, Modern Watch

    There are tales one never tires of telling… so very fantastic that they are always heard with the same enjoyment. Such is the case for the emblematic Reflet model created in 1947, which has passed the test of time with unaltered allure and charm. From the very beginning, it has always combined fine aesthetics and innovation: its strap, featuring an invisible and interchangeable clasp, was one of the reasons for the instant success of this rectangular watch, initially designed for gentlemen of taste and character. Though most popular with women, this marvellous piece, with its emblematic gadroon bezel design, never ceased to strive for perfection in order to recover its rightful place in the heart of men. In 2008, on the occasion of its 150th birthday, Boucheron launched a limitededition Reflet XL in a discerning partnership with Swiss watchmaker Girard-Perregaux: the timepiece was fitted with the manufacture’s GP 4000 self-winding automatic mechanical movement. Since then, the Reflet has continued to take on many forms, each fully expressing the elegance and savoir-faire which have always made the brand’s repute. With its latest models, the House of Boucheron chose to once again bring together the luxury of French jewellery and technical excellence. However, aficionados should not be mistaken! Alongside the inherent chic of this watch – a favourite gift from Edith Piaf to her lovers - they will naturally recognize all the codes of delicate sensuality characteristic of the House of Boucheron that make Reflet such a timeless model. The secret probably lies in the ability to strike a fine balance between historic heritage and innovation, making these new pieces essentials of genuine modernity put at the service of elegance.

    Reflet Cruise Limited Edition: Following The Footsteps of a Myth

    With its dial fashioned in the style of the bridge on a sleek powerboat, the Limited Edition Reflet XL Cruise watch arouses passions in keen connoisseurs of fine objects and intricate mechanics. The streamlined powerboats of the 1950’s, with their polished precious wood decks, evoke truly mythical memories of supremely elegant crafts, built for the well-to-do’s elite’s escapades across a lake, along a canal or to some prestigious port of call, and the roar of the boat’s powerful engine. Gleaming in their meticulously varnished mahogany livery, these majestic, handcrafted nautical icons reveal, through the shine of their stainless- steel deck fittings, the reddish gleam of precious woods highlighted with a line of sealant which is here expressed by a fine-grained strip of black-tinted pear tree wood.This rectangular timepiece, with its high-quality steel mirrorshine case, heightened with a gadroon pattern typical of Boucheron, is a perfectly balanced item that clearly evokes the kind of sun-drenched destinations only travel magazines seem to know of. Like the powerboats which inspired it, this timekeeper – a strictly limited edition of 26 pieces, all numbered on the back - is powered by an exceptional engine. It is fitted with a mechanical self-winding calibre (reference GP 4000) developed exclusively by the Girard-Perregaux manufacture for the Parisian jeweller. The movement can be seen through the elliptical transparent back, inspired by a roof hatch porthole: connoisseurs will surely appreciate the high-end finishing and engraving on the oscillating weight, which features the Brand’s historic hallmark. What makes this timekeeper most remarkable is probably the delicate charm of products whose timeless design can be passed on from one generation to the next, without ever becoming bland. Of particular note is the minute-track, chiselled from a sheet of metal and finely inlaid in wood, combined with Arabic numerals and reminiscent of the geometric shapes of a model which first appeared in the Boucheron collection in 1947, with an interchangeable strap. Today’s version, enhanced with a size more in keeping with current trends (45 x 31.5 mm), has a much more sporty look, with the added touch of a date window at one o’clock (location of the Boucheron boutique on Place Vendôme), and a central seconds hand. The resulting watch is particularly well-balanced, and 50 meters water-resistant in order to resist the sea spray from a dash in the waves, and is worn on a hand-sewn strap fashioned from top-grade mat alligator leather, or a more sportive 9-row strap of supple steel secured by a push-button deployment clasp.
