Double-face flying tourbillon, world time with indexable second-time zone, moon phase, and five days’ power reserve.
Following the lauded success of the Récital 26 Brainstorm® Chapter One, Mr. Pascal Raffy, owner of the House of Bovet 1822, and the skilled artisans of the House of Bovet are honoured to premiere the Récital 26 Brainstorm® Chapter Two, presented in the iconic sloped writing case that features Bovet’s patented Double-sided flying tourbillon, a second-time zone with a twenty-four city disc, a precision moon phase while offering the chronometry of 5 days power reserve.
The House of Bovet is proud to give decorative arts, chronometry, mechanical ingenuity, and innovation their greatest acclaim since 1822. The selflessness and passion of Bovet’s craftsmen, their respect for the tradition of Haute Horology, and the care they take in the smallest of details are the reason for Bovet’s exceptional high-end watchmaking.
To further increase this level of exception, Mr. Pascal Raffy, a passionate watch collector, has chosen to limit the number of timepieces crafted annually to only 800 timepieces. Mr. Raffy further redefines true luxury by creating all of its components in the Bovet’s Swiss workshops, using artisanal processes, and adding the concept of exclusivity to the experience offered to each collector.
The Brainstorm Chapter Two is the second timepiece in the Bovet collection to be fitted with a sapphire crystal case in the emblematic writing case with an asymmetrical profile imagined by Mr. Pascal Raffy in 2016. The slope of its bezel allows the collector to explore new display mechanisms that guarantee intuitive and increased readability. Concentric rollers, rotating domes, and three-dimensional needles were used to express time in new ways.
The protected design of the writing case opens up new horizons in terms of the very architecture of the movements, by optimizing the volume which simultaneously increases the functionalities offered, the chronometry, the reliability, and the readability.
The collector will discover the complexity of precious watchmaking mechanics from a new angle where the decorative arts illuminate the third dimension in a vision previously unexplored.
