Description
Attractive and rare Bovet ‘Mono-Rattrapante’ chronograph wristwatch from the 1940s.
Not only does the dial make this piece stand out, but the case also sets it apart. The watch features a rare ‘Clam-shell’ case, ensuring its water resistance. The two-piece case (as opposed to the more common three-piece design) remains in good condition, showing the typical signs of use expected from an 80-year-old watch. Studio lighting in the photographs highlights all nicks and scratches, providing an accurate representation. The enthralling Valjoux 84 first production was in 1936, with the discontinuation in 1950. Interestingly, this specific caliber was made solely for the brand Bovet Frères & Co.Other brands later adopted the same caliber, but it was Bovet that propelled Valjoux to innovate a completely new construction in the form of caliber 84. Later strap/buckle. Please note that we handle a 24 hour purchase/shipment processing policy as all our watches are located in a bank safe.
