This year, BOVET introduces a new version of the Récital 21, this time with a sapphire crystal dial available in three captivating hues – green, blue, and brown. This dial gives the Récital 21 a completely different character – stylish, modern, comfortable... and a bit mysterious. The dial provides a window into the inner workings of this high-watchmaking manual-wind movement.
With the Récital 21, the minute and hour hands are located in the center of the timepiece, providing more space in the periphery for perpetual calendar information. The sapphire crystal dial, colored and slightly smoked, gives a glimpse of the complex mechanism powering this timepiece. You can see the day of the week and the month coming, along with the gears, pinions, and wheels making things move. With the exception of the date, indicated by a retrograde hand that rotates around the hours and minutes, the discs display the days and months in vertical apertures at 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock respectively, while the leap year cycle is displayed in a circular aperture at 3 o’clock.
