Boucheron 'Clous de Paris' Dress Watch

Overall Condition: Good condition overall showing wear consistent with age and use.

What watch should the Elvis lover buy? We’d wager it would look something like the Boucheron! Manufacturing watches and jewelry in Paris since 1858, Boucheron has always taken an out of the box approach to watch design.

This particular piece features an 18K yellow gold rectangular case with a Cloud de Paris vaulted bezel, and a trap that integrates directly into the case. The striking glint of the hobnail bezel is extremely characteristic of the Vegas styling of mid to late century designs.

The case is filled with a hobnail dial with minimalist, applique indexes and a simple handset. The entire case and dial follows the same motif and the result is something truly beautiful and unique. Powering this beauty is a manually wound movement shaped to fit the rectangular case.

As a whole, this piece has a playful undertone that reminds us of the nostalgia of a bygone era. Set on a more austere lizzard watch strap, and paired with a matching pin buckle, this piece may be bright and striking, but it still features the attention to detail that speaks to the high jewelry piece that it is.

The perfect choice for a particular collector— you know who you are!
