Bovet Fleurier Amadeo Ladies Touch Watch

Using its convertible watch case design - Bovet has released this new women's watch called the Amadeo Ladies Touch. Shouldn't it be "lady's touch?" The watch has four "forms." There is a module to make it a wrist watch, you can remove it and make it a pocket watch, open the back to make it a table clock, and you can attach a chain to make it a pendant style timepiece. I do really like the concept and Bovet does it well, though I wonder if clients actually use more than one wearing style.

The Amadeo Ladies Touch case is 39mm wide in 18k rose or white gold. You can have the dial with either black or white mother of pearl, while the hour indicators are each diamonds in a gold setting. You'll notice a small butterfly on the dial of the watch. This is hand-painted, and can be customized by the buyer. Bovet will pretty much hand-paint whatever you like on the dial.

Bovet timepieces mostly look like pocket watches on the wrist, so this convertible concept suits the brand well. The Ladies Touch watch is quite understated and tasteful. Not exciting per se, but I can see how something like this could grow on you. Inside the watch is a Bovet Fleurier in-house made Caliber 11BA13 automatic movement with a three day power reserve.
