The
History of ... Bovet... “There is nothing Britain possesses,” wrote
the Emperor Quianlong to King George III, “that the Celestial Empire
can possibly need.” Except for one thing. Watches were the only
foreign products that interested the Chinese elite. Quianlong himself
had a sizeable collection. While Britain resorted to gunboats and opium
to force the Chinese market to open, it was a Swiss businessman who
found the key. 21-year-old Edouard Bovet arrived in Canton in 1818
and almost immediately sold four watches for 10,000 francs — about a
million US dollars today. Edouard Bovet decided to stay in Canton,
establishing a watchmaking dynasty that lasted 80 years. Very soon in
China, “Bo Wei” became synonymous for a watch. In the currency turmoil
of late Manchu China, BOVET watches spread throughout the country as
a medium of exchange...

in photos... Bovet 1822 Fleurier 43 Tiger Amadeo D812, MOP Handcrafted
Piece Unique, crafted in polished finished 18k Rose Gold round shaped
case… When he became the sole owner of the Maison BOVET 1822 in 2001,
Mr. Raffy immediately sought to safeguard the decorative arts techniques
that were so integral to the soul of the Maison. At the dawn of the
19th century, the Bovet brothers revolutionized the applied arts of
watchmaking, raising them to a degree of excellence that remains
unequaled, as evidenced by the omnipresence of BOVET timepieces in the
most prestigious academic art museums in the world. So the main thing
you’ll notice when you look at the Bovet Amadeo Fleurier 43 is probably
the rather striking image of a Tiger, looking right into you eyes, has
a stately colorful regal image appears ready . The Bovet Amadeo
Fleurier therefore, qualifies as art in my mind. The Art of Miniature
Painting, Drawing inspiration from a rich heritage, BOVET’s passionate
craftsmen render a personal, artistic touch to each surface and
mechanism, enlivened by incomparable attention to detailed finishes

that adds a little bit more. Developed and ensured the longevity of
professions that had all but disappeared, such as artistic engraving,
miniature painting, and the art of enameling. Unique pieces and
customized timepieces today represent one third of the timepieces
manufactured annually by BOVET 1822 and bear witness to collectors'
attachment to artistic craftsmanship...
